International acquisitions are failing at a rate of three out of
four and international location decisions two times out of three.
Where does corporate management locate a new facility or find one
to acquire that will best satisfy the business objectives of
survival and growth? A variety of decision making methodologies
have emerged from the literature, but which are most workable?
Schniederjans surveys these and other methods, analyzes and
explains them carefully, and provides a new approach to help
optimize the location selection decision. Included are cutting-edge
applications and quantitative examples that can be easily grasped
and quickly applied. With detailed appendices covering sources of
international information available in print and electronically,
the book will be essential for upper management and others who are
engaged in planning the corporation's expansion and growth.
Schniederjans organizes his book into two parts. He defines his
terminology and establishes a foundation to understand the use of
acquisition and location methodologies in the first part, and
covers the use of one or more methodologies in facility acquisition
and location analysis internationally, supported by current
research findings, in the second part. Included in his four
appendices of source material is one that lists currently available
computer software that supports the methodologies covered in the
book. The book will also help save consulting fees and help
redirect the study of its topic to make the facilities acquisition
and location task yield more reliable results in coming years.
