Book Synopsis Evaluation of Supply Chain Performance by : Liliana Avelar-Sosa
Download or read book Evaluation of Supply Chain Performance written by Liliana Avelar-Sosa and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-06-30 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides some regional aspects considered by manufacturing firms in their decisions to gain competitiveness and have effects on the performance of their supply chains (SC). Some of the main aspects considered are: government's policies, fixed costs, the availability and quality of infrastructure services. This book also discusses the risks for the SC; based on a perception approach, some aspects studied are: demand, suppliers and production processes and how these are related to other elements of the SC. The authors use structural modeling to analyze the evaluation of some manufacturing practices and their impact on customer service satisfaction, agility and flexibility of the SC. The context of this study is immersed in the Mexican manufacturing industry of exportation, also known as maquiladora industry of Ciudad Juarez, México. This borderland is among the top 10 manufacturing Mexican cities. World class industries are located in this region and have been recognized around the world for their competitiveness and high performance. Therefore, the methods and results exposed in this book may be valuable and useful for readers and researchers of the SC worldwide.

Book Synopsis Behavioral Operations Management by : Christoph H. Loch
Download or read book Behavioral Operations Management written by Christoph H. Loch and published by Now Publishers Inc. This book was released on 2007 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Behavioral Operations Management investigates new developments around behavioral components -- "people issues"--In operations management (OM). While these "people issues" are not new, OM has not dealt with them in a serious or consistent manner until the last 10 years or so. What is new is the emergence of a set of methods and structured areas of study that allow researchers to study these issues within the OM paradigm. The authors provide a definition of Behavioral OM and survey a number of relevant behavioral issues and their applications to the existing OM research. Finally, the authors propose that culture studies in OM may represent a promising direction of future behavioral OM research
