Specialists in managing logistics, supply chains, and operations present teaching case studies--as opposed to research case studies--in the three areas from the real world of business around
the world. Each one illustrates a particular principle and how it adapts to and shapes all the other factors in play. Among the topics are demand covering and service level estimation in public
services planning, job shop layout at Jones Medical Laboratories, collaborative distribution considering economic and environmental performance, drivers and barriers in implementing information
management systems in European micro enterprises, and managing workers’ interests across global supply chain networks. Annotation ©2016 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
