Building a smart supply chain platform
Most executives acknowledge the critical value of supply chains to overall business success. However, thousands of companies still don’t consider supply chain strategies when creating their business plan–even though the supply chain accounts for 60 percent of total costs.
Supply Chain Transformation by Dr. J. Paul Dittmann of the Global Supply Chain Institute at the University of Tennessee asserts that American business is being crippled by this failure to implement sound supply chain strategies. This is causing pain to both customers and shareholders.
Dr. Dittmann’s book has been called the essential volume on this topic and provides a nine-step roadmap for anyone who wants to build a smart supply chain platform that drives revenue, maximizes profitability, improves efficiency, and increases shareholder value.
The book addresses how to:
–Assess your internal supply chain capabilities
–Evaluate supply chain game changers
–Gauge SWOT faced by the firm versus best practice
–Recognize the most likely mega trends and their implications
–Meet challenges generated by foreign and domestic competition
–Generate a set of actions that create the supply chain capabilities for your firm’s future
