While many core supply chainmanagement issues are interrelated, the authors have tried tomake each chapter as self-contained as possible so that thereader can refer directly to chapters covering topics of interest.Each chapter utilizes case studies and numerous examples.Mathematical and technical sections can be skipped withoutloss of continuity. Most textbooks do not include models anddecision support systems robust enough for industry, but thatis not true of this new edition. The accompanying CD-ROMalso features the return of two simulations, the <strong>Computer</strong>izedBeer Game and the Risk Pool Game and a computerized tool.These simulations help users develop and execute supplychain contracts while also illustrating many of the conceptsdiscussed in the text.NEW TO THIS EDITION• Improved and Integrated Coverage of Technology– To reflect a more realistic approach to incorporatingtechnology in today’s companies, Chapter 8 (on “ SupplyChain Design”) has again been updated, incorporatingnew material on coordinating product and supply chain,on modular processes and products; Chapter 9 (“CustomerValue”) expands and updates an Amazon.com exampleand adds material on “Customer Relations Management”’;Chapter 10 (“Information Technology”) has new materialon “the Internet” “events management” “collaboration” and“exchanges”, “modeling” and “demand planning” (Chapter11 “Decision Support Systems”).• New or updated cases: Several new cases have beenadded and remaining ones updated.
