Supply-Chain Survival in the Age of Globalization

Have you ever asked yourself—“What do we do now that our supply
chain has moved into the global arena?” Globalization has stretched
supply chains and thus has introduced a variety of problems not present
in purely domestic supply chains. Along with serious issues of security,
many firms simply treat global supply chains as if they were a
simple extension of the domestic model. This has caused unexpected
problems including a general backlash against outsourcing, hidden
costs, quality problems, and the difficulty of managing supply chains
on a global basis.
Help has arrived. This unique book traces the history of globalization
and its impact on supply-chain management while also taking a
detailed look at the problems and some of the solutions facing global
supply chains today.
