Proven Solutions for Improving Supply Chain Performance is a collection
of about 175 descriptions of scientific management studies in the
management of supply chains. Each one of the descriptions of the
scientific studies is presented in readable and understandable form for
individuals who probably have not had the statistical and scientific
education and training to fully understand the underlying studies. The
book is significantly different from the popular management literature,
which is generally based on armchair theories that have little basis on
fact, and seldom have been scientifically verified. Although the book is
targeted for the supply chain manager/administrator, it can also be used
as a supplementary reader in such courses as Operations Management,
Service Systems Management, Manufacturing Management, Purchasing
Management, and, of course, in Supply Chain Management courses.
