Industrial engineering has provided a systematic approach to streamline and improve productivity and efficiency. Industrial engineering is important to both producers and end-users of a product. Industrial engineers improve processes and designs to make things more efficient. This is good for business as it saves time and money, raw resources, energy and manpower. No matter the area of focus or specialization, the importance of industrial engineering is unquestionable.
