Supply Chain Management ist ein Thema, das für das alltägliche Handeln von Managern und Unternehmen heute und in Zukunft größte Relevanz hat. Projekte zur Implementierung von Supply-Chain-Management-Konzepten unterscheiden sich dabei von anderen betrieblichen Projekten insbesondere durch ihren unternehmensübergreifenden Charakter: So versuchen gewöhnlich zwei vertikal miteinander kooperierende Unternehmen ihre gemeinsame Lieferkette zu optimieren. Bisher ist noch relativ wenig über Dynamik, Ablauf und Erfolg solcher Projekte bekannt. Andreas Brinkhoff untersucht die wesentlichen Einflussfaktoren auf unternehmensübergreifende Supply-Chain-Projekte, basierend auf einer Analyse von 74 untersuchten Projekten. Ein besonderes Augenmerk wird dabei auf die Rolle der Beziehung der beiden Partner vor und nach dem Projekt geworfen. Das Buch wendet sich an Dozenten und Studenten der Wirtschaftswissenschaften mit Schwerpunkten Organisation und Logistik sowie an interessierte Führungskräfte, die sich mit unternehmensübergreifenden Projekten auseinandersetzen.

Traditionally supply chain management has meant factories, assembly lines, warehouses, transportation vehicles, and time sheets. Modern supply chain management is a highly complex, multidimensional problem set with virtually endless number of variables for optimization. An Internet enabled supply chain may have just-in-time delivery, precise inventory visibility, and up-to-the-minute distribution-tracking capabilities. Technology advances have enabled supply chains to become strategic weapons that can help avoid disasters, lower costs, and make money. From internal enterprise processes to external business transactions with suppliers, transporters, channels and end-users marks the wide range of challenges researchers have to handle. The aim of this book is at revealing and illustrating this diversity in terms of scientific and theoretical fundamentals, prevailing concepts as well as current practical applications.

Intelligence is wasted on problems that themselves have been caused by an excess of intelligence. Lean Brain Management strives toward uncompromising Lean Brain Quality. Lean Brain stands for consistent economization of intelligence in all realms of life: Intelligent systems will only be operated by unskilled workers. Education, universities, and schools would become obsolete. A week of training would be enough for virtually any job. ("You are now the physician for the measles in the State of Ohio. In response to phone calls, send this prescription.") Lean Brain is not aimed at dumbing down! Lean Brain can survive on just a very small amount of central intelligence. Potential savings amount to trillions! This is demonstrated using Germany as an example. With this book, Dueck presents a radical suggestion for world improvement. The desire to laugh infinitely about it will eventually segue into a collective rude awakening. The book contains concrete advice for managers to economize on intelligence, and is thus in keeping with the theme written in an easy-to-read fashion. It contains no self-doubt whatsoever.

In recent years, the design of contracts in supply chains has received significant attention from researchers and practitioners. Companies try to improve their profits by designing efficient contracts that ensure a high availability of the product at a low cost. In this book the author presents a quantitative approach for designing optimal supply chain contracts. Firstly, service level contracts, which are frequently used between a supplier and a manufacturer, are analyzed. For this contract type, optimal contract parameter combinations are identified that lead to a coordinated supply chain. Secondly, an optimal contract selection strategy is developed for a supply chain where a manufacturer can choose among multiple potential buyers. Potential readership includes scholars of supply chain management and management science, graduate students interested in these areas as well as interested practitioners involved in negotiating contracts.

Scenario planning is considered the most prominent and powerful technique of futures research. There are, however, indications that such planning practices are not widespread in the logistics service industry. Why and to what extend is this so? Based on 51 interviews with logistics CEOs, strategists, and scenario experts, Heiko A. von der Gracht shows that the logistics service industry draws a backward picture of scenario planning practices as compared to other industries. He further elaborates that the potentials of scenario planning in logistics are, nevertheless, exceptionally high. Explorative research has therefore been conducted that comprises a scenario study on the future of the logistics service industry in the year 2025. Based on a two-round modified Delphi survey with 30 top logistics executives a surprising but realistic picture of the future has been drawn. The scenarios are intended to provide a sound planning basis for long-term logistics decisions, to illustrate the value and potentials of the technique, and to exemplify a systematic scenario development.
