From the supplier: The production process is facilitated by implementing activity-based costing (ABC). Managers get to discover which activities are costing money and this knowledge makes them better able to control all costs more effectively instead of merely focusing on overhead costs. ABC's evolution into activity-based management has mandated that activities be classified into either value-added or non-value-added with managerial focus on the elimination of the non-value-added activities.
