Description

In his 2007 best-selling book, Strategic Supply Management, Robert Trent presented concepts, processes, tools, best practices, and a framework for creating a supply management organization that would provide a reliable source of supply and competitive advantage. While the majority of that body of knowledge is still very relevant a decade later, it is no longer sufficient to effectively manage the supply networks and supply chains of today and over the next decade. This book introduces a new set of essential supply management concepts, strategies, and practices that are an integral part of surviving and thriving in this unprecedented era of rapid change and disruption.

Key Features
  • Addresses the importance of developing well-crafted supply strategies and linking supply management success to corporate financial success
  • Explores the four areas that enable strategic supply management to become a reality in this new era: the shift from human resource management to talent management, evolving organizational designs, new directions in supply measurement, and the information-enabled supply organization
  • Explains how to gain a competitive advantage through true collaborative relationships and become the customer of choice to suppliers
  • Deals with the inevitability of risk and presents over a dozen types of flexibility that help reduce risk and increase corporate resilience
  • Discusses the importance of global supply management and explores in detail the topic of reshoring work back to a home country, such as the U.S.
  • Makes the case for becoming a process-driven organization and identifies a set of best practices associated with four critical processes
  • Provides comprehensive coverage on the issue of complexity, including why we have it and how to overcome it
