One of the biggest challenges for companies in today's competitive
environment is to get products to customers when and where they
need it, exactly the way they want it, with a competitive price and
in a cost effective manner. Managing the value chain is becoming
more complicated because of globalization, outsourcing, the need
for shorter time to market, and the requirements for greater
responsiveness and flexibility due to customer changes. Although
the benefits of applying lean concepts or improving the flexibility
of a value chain are clear and desperately needed in today's
competitive environment, none of the current literature provides
guidance on how to do this. Lean & Agile Value Chain Management
fills that gap by providing a breakthrough start-to-finish roadmap
for organizations to implement a lean and agile value chain
transformation program successfully. It brings together the field's
latest advances and offers practical, proven tactics and detailed
guidance into every aspect of value chain process redesign,
including mapping the existing process, intelligently leveraging
new technologies, building a strategy for strengthening the
relationship with suppliers and customers, identifying
comprehensive related metrics, and much more.
With the world having been plunged into uncertainty during the
COVID-19 pandemic, a critical issue for senior management is
stabilizing their supply chain to a consistent flow of components
and materials. Even before the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic,
supply chain complexity had been an increasingly "hot" topic. Add
to that the complexity of new tariff restrictions, port congestion,
regional conflicts, and geopolitical events and disruptions due to
international conflict, and it is apparent that securing access to
materials and critical resources is not without difficulty, and
forecasting demand is even harder. Digital Supply Chain, Disruptive
Environments, and the Impact on Retailers brings together the
field's latest best practices on digital supply chain enablement,
giving business professionals a comprehensive framework to ensure
successful supply chain business transformation programs. Covering
topics such as business planning, digital transformation, and
volatile demand, this premier reference source is an excellent
resource for managers, directors, vice presidents, supply chain
executives, IT directors, consultants, students and educators of
higher education, librarians, researchers, and academicians.
In today's competitive business climate, companies with effective
procurement strategies are beginning to separate themselves from
the competition. Successful purchase order management (POM) is now
a critical core competency and organizations in all industries have
started investigating tools and techniques to help them succeed.
Purchase Order Management Best Practices brings together the
field's latest advances and gives business professionals a
comprehensive framework for lowering costs, improving efficiency,
eliminating non-value added activities, and optimizing the
transformation program for the POM process. It offers practical,
proven tactics and detailed guidance into every aspect of POM
process redesign: mapping the existing process, intelligently
leveraging new technologies, building a strategy for strengthening
the relationship with suppliers, identifying comprehensive related
metrics, and much more, including industry success stories and
lessons learned. Although POM process transformation is a hot
topic, there is not a single book that focuses on the recipe of
success for a POM transformation program. This text fills the gap
by providing a breakthrough start-to-finish roadmap for
organizations to implement the POM transformation program
successfully.

Companies across different industries are launching
technology-enabled (digital) business transformation programs to
improve their strategic, tactical, and operational supply chain
processes. The greatest challenges that they are facing include the
lack of preparation and knowledge of the digital transformation
life cycle and poorly addressing or neglecting the "people-related"
aspects of them. Therefore, improvement initiatives have been
short-lived or incomplete, and expected business benefits have not
been achieved or materialized. Technology Optimization and Change
Management for Successful Digital Supply Chains is a pivotal
reference source that provides vital research on the application of
digital business transformation programs to improve strategic,
tactical, and operational supply chain processes. While
highlighting topics such as maturity models, predictive analysis,
and communication planning, this publication explores the limited

business transformation, and complements it with practical and
proven tactics from the industry. This book is ideally designed for
program managers, engineers, students, and practitioners seeking
current research on the field's latest best practices on digital
supply chain enablement.
