Global supply chain management

책 소개

Preface This book comprises current practices and issues in supply chain management for global operations using a practical perspective. The emphasis is on supply chain costs and the ways to identify and manage costs. Because global operations entail unique vocabularies, complex processes, and intricate decision variables, I tried my best to explain concepts in simplest English, providing step-by-step guidelines for decision-making processes. Case stories were incorporated in many places to provide contexts and the sense of reality in terms of concrete data. The ultimate objective of global supply chain management is to link the marketplaces, distribution networks, manufacturing process, and procurement activities, in a way that customers are served at a higher level, yet at lower costs. The book integrates principles and techniques in supply management, operations management, and logistics for the effective supply chain management in a global environment. Thereby, the objectives of this text are to: ? understand supply chain operations in a global business context; ? know how to make strategic decisions in global supply chain management; ? be able to get needed data and calculate customs duty, freight, and landed costs; and ? be able to perform cost analysis for global sourcing and offshoring. The book is designed for readers from a variety of backgrounds: supply chain professionals who want to have broader understanding for global operations; business students learning global issues in supply chain managements; engineers new to the supply chain operations; and business owners exploring global operations.
