What are the key factors affecting global supply chains today and
how can we manage them? Starting from the concept that 'there is no
point driving a Ferrari in a traffic jam', Ron Basu provides
practical tools and techniques of good supply chain management to
add value, deliver cost reduction and improve customer
satisfaction. This new edition specifically focuses on seven
contemporary challenges that have affected global supply chain
management. Recent disruptions to global supply chains created by
COVID-19 and the Ukraine conflict have resulted in significant
geographical shifts in supply and demand. High inflation and the
cost of living crisis have, in turn, created problems for
finely-tuned global supply chains. The economic and business
environment has also become more demanding, due in part to
political pressures including nationalism and Brexit: for example,
supply chain pressures caused by Brexit have resulted in increased
red tape. Other factors have had a gradual and positive effect,
such as climate change initiatives, Industry 4.0 and the digital
revolution. The issues that affect the performance of global supply
chains are sometimes interrelated, but all of them really matter
because businesses have become increasingly global. This book
addresses these challenges and explores how to deal with them. In
addition, there are new and updated chapters on lean and agile
supply chains, e-business, emerging markets, sustainability and
green issues, global supply chains for services and event
management, retail management and major project management.
Managing Global Supply Chains is a practical and highly readable
text with real-life examples and excellent coverage. It is an ideal
companion for post-experience business students, learning
professionals and anyone interested in supply chain management.
