Synopsis

Successful supply chain management requires cross-functional integration of key business processes within the firm and across the network of firms that comprise the supply chain. It is focused on the management of key relationships and the improvements in performance that can be achieved. However, in many companies executives struggle to achieve the necessary integration. The problem is that they do not fully understand the supply chain management processes and the linkages necessary to integrate those processes. By understanding them and recognizing why and how they should be implemented, executives will be able to create more integrated supply chains which will lead to increased revenues and profitability for all member firms.

In this book, the authors document over 10 years of research with leading firms, and provide a detailed framework for implementing best practices in supply chain management.
