Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Supply Chain Processes introduces readers to the view that genuine supply chain competitive advantage is achieved via supply chain excellence which in turn is underpinned by supply chain process excellence. The ultimate supply chain goal is to deliver the right product, of the right quality, in the right quantity, to the right place, at the right time and for the right cost. The author identifies four core supply chain processes – strategy, design, execution and people – to which the process improvement techniques explained can be applied to ensure superior supply chain performance. Key topics are addressed, including supply chain risk, resilience, sustainability, challenges confronting modern-day supply chains and developing an elegant supply chain design. Each chapter starts with a section that explores learning opportunities and is followed by detailed chapter content. Carefully explained examples are provided, as well as end of chapter case studies, review questions and written assignments. A full suite of teaching aids is also provided for lecturers and tutors. Providing both management expertise and technical skills, which are essential to decision-makers in the supply chain, this textbook should be essential reading for undergraduate and post-graduate students, post-experience students studying for professional qualifications, and operating supply chain leaders and supply chain professionals. Online resources include chapter-by-chapter PowerPoint slides, tutorial exercises, written assignments and a test bank of exam questions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Supply chains, including logistics, are the functional elements of an organisation's operations. To formulate a strategy for this operation to work seamlessly the organisation needs to align these operations with the corporate and business strategy. Strategic Supply Chain Management provides a discussion on effective supply chain strategic leadership for managerial teams who have previously been operating on a tactical or operational level, as well as students who need to learn about applying the theories of strategic supply chain management in practice. Strategic Supply Chain Management introduces concepts and tools which will enable successful buyer-supplier relationships and effective organizational leadership and talent management. Samir Dani provides a concise but important outlook on the connection between business strategy and supply chain strategy. The book delves into topical issues of risk, resilience, and sustainability and how these influence both business and supply chain strategy. The book also considers strategies for procurement, buyer supplier relationships, and sales & operations planning. An important aspect of this book is to consider the leadership and talent aspects of the humans in the supply chain and how this influences strategy and creates competitive advantage.
