The construction logistics manager plays an increasingly central
role in the construction process. In fact, their decisions can
crucially affect the success or failure of a project. Recognition
of the critical role they play has spurred evermore interest in
this budding field amongst both researchers and practitioners. An
accessible text on construction logistics, Supply Chain Management
and Logistics in Construction provides essential guidance and
expert advice for construction managers, as well as researchers and
students in the field. This important new title looks at
arrangements with suppliers, the use of returnable packaging and
off-site manufacture and assembly, IT systems used to manage the
supply chain and logistics operations, such as delivery management
systems, warehouse management systems and material planning and
forecasting systems. It also considers aspects of the contractual
relationships between client, developer, main contractor and
lower-tier contractors, all of which have an impact on how the
supply chain is managed. In addition to providing a range of fresh
ground-breaking case studies, the book features contributions from
leading experts in the field who have been involved in projects
with companies such as TFL, BAA, The Red Cross, as well as big
construction programmes such as the Olympics and Cross Rail.
