This book goes beyond viewing 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 as a mere factor of production. Instead, it offers a broader lens, exploring strategic and operational dimensions that impact business performance. What I found most insightful is how it frames supply chains as a series of trade-offs, choices that shape resilience, efficiency, and growth.
It highlights five critical trade-offs:
• In-house Production vs. Outsourcing
• Amortization vs. Inventory Costs
• Utilization vs. Lead Times
• Excess Inventory vs. Product Shortages
• Revenue Growth vs. Mismatch Costs
These concepts offer valuable perspectives not only to supply chain professionals but also to business leaders navigating uncertainty and complexity. The book is also an excellent resource for teaching in graduate business programs.
