From "Know your supply chain variables" by Philip Damas, American Shipper, July 2004While avoiding industry jargon and the hyperbole often used by logistics consultants, this book guides the reader with clarity and purpose through many supply chain aspects, from order fulfillment to logistics network optimization, through order forecasts and product design. A common theme of this book is the need for global optimization across all corporate functions, all warehouses or locations, and across companies that share the same supply chains.
