Managing Operations Across the Supply Chain is the first book to offer a global, supply chain perspective of operations management – a treatment that embraces the foundations of operations management but includes new frameworks, concepts, and tools to address the demands of today and changing needs of the future. It reflects three key shifts in operations management:
From a focus on the internal system to a focus on the supply chain
From a local focus to a global focus
From an emphasis on tools and techniques to an emphasis on systems, people, and processes
The primary focus of the book is operations management with a “supply chain” perspective. The authors clarify the functional roles of operations, supply management, and logistics while examining the integrative processes that make up the supply chain. Both the upstream (supply-side) and downstream (demand-side) aspects of the supply chain are examined.
