A practical guide to turning ISO 14001:2015 from a certification exercise into a management system that delivers real results. Learn how to build an effective EMS, avoid unnecessary bureaucracy and common pitfalls and improve environmental performance while creating lasting business value.

Build a quality management system that works in the real world. This practical guide to ISO 9001:2015 takes you from the basics through implementation, certification and continual improvement, with clear explanations, practical examples and guidance on what the standard actually requires.

Build, implement and sustain an AS/EN 9100-compliant Quality Management System with confidence. This practical guide takes you from planning and implementation through certification and ongoing improvement, with clear guidance, aerospace context and insights grounded in authoritative industry sources.

AI can sound certain even when it is completely wrong. This book takes a practical approach to building RAG systems and AI agents that ground answers in evidence, verify what they generate and know when to stop. Learn how to make AI more reliable in the places where getting it wrong really matters.

What happens when Lean Six Sigma meets software development? This practical guide shows engineering leaders and teams how to improve quality, flow and performance without losing sight of how software actually gets built. From Agile and DevOps to metrics and continuous improvement, learn what works, what doesn't and how to make change stick.

What if AI could help you find flaws in software logic before they become costly bugs? This practical guide shows you how to use Claude Code alongside proven verification tools to test assumptions, uncover hidden issues and build confidence in your code. From first principles to production workflows, learn a smarter way to verify software with AI.

Generative AI can write code fast, but fast does not always mean safe. This practical guide shows software teams how to verify, test, secure and govern AI-assisted code across the full development lifecycle. Packed with real-world examples and practical workflows, it offers a clear path to adopting AI without lowering the bar for software quality.

This practical guide explains how to implement the five pillars of 5S, develop effective workplace standards, build a culture of continuous improvement, and create efficient, well-organized work environments that support long-term Lean success.

AI can write code in seconds, but can you trust what it creates? Securing AI-Generated Code shows you how to uncover hidden vulnerabilities, stop risky dependencies, secure AI coding agents and build safer development pipelines. A practical guide for teams that want the speed of AI without putting security on the line.

Specification Engineering turns complex ideas into clear, workable specifications. This practical guide takes you from core principles to advanced methods for defining, validating, managing and evolving requirements across products, software, systems and services. Built for real-world use, it gives you the tools to create specifications that people can understand and act on.

Implementing ISO/IEC 27001:2022 is easier with the right guide. Packed with practical steps, ready-to-use templates and real-world examples, this book helps you build, manage and certify an effective Information Security Management System with confidence.

What if your biggest obstacle isn't effort, but flow?Thinking in Bottlenecks reveals how the hidden constraints around you—and inside you—are the true culprits behind slow results, wasted effort, and stalled progress. Inspired by the legendary Theory of Constraints, this book blends systems engineering, Lean thinking, and real-world experience into a practical mindset for solving anything faster

Modern software delivery demands more than fast pipelines. It requires systems built for reliability, security and scale. This book shows how to design and run CI/CD as a production platform, with practical patterns, real world examples and proven strategies that help teams deliver software with confidence.

In this practical guide, Dr. Mohammed Hamed Ahmed Soliman, author of Toyota Production System Concepts: SMED – How to Do a Quick Changeover and Heijunka: The Leveling Art of the Japanese Auto Industry, distills decades of industrial engineering and Lean transformation experience into actionable insights. You'll learn how:
