Supply Chain Management Review, March/April 2000
A Book for Students Everywhere Very few books on supply chain management succeed as both an instructional vehicle for the student and a hands-on resource for the practitioner. Designing and Managing the Supply Chain is the happy exception. This collaboration between academia and the industry bridges that gap between the pedantic and the pragmatic. Each chapter presents a case study up front, replete with problems and challenges, then discusses the technology and decision-support tools that can be applied to the case example. By the end of the chapter, the students can address the issues raised in the cases effectively. That technique is repeated for a number of critical supply chain topics- logistics network design, inventory management, strategic alliances, international logistics, and the often overlooked supply chain/product design connection, to name a few. Especially valuable for readers without a strong technical background is the discussion on supply chain information technology and decision-support systems.
