Effective supply chain integration, and the tight co-ordination it creates, is an essential pre-requisite for successful supply chain management. "Decision-Making for Supply Chain Integration" is a practical reference on recent research in the area of supply chain integration focusing on distributed decision-making problems. Recent applications of various decision-making tools for integrating supply chains are covered including chapters focusing on:
Supplier selection, pricing strategy and inventory decisions in multi-level supply chains,
RFID-enabled distributed decision-making,
Operational risk issues and time-critical decision-making for sensitive logistics nodes, Modelling end to end processes to improve supply chain integration, and
Integrated systems to improve service delivery and optimize resource use.
"Decision-Making for Supply Chain Integration" provides an insight into the tools and methodologies of this field with support from real-life case studies demonstrating successful application of various decision-making techniques. By covering such a range of topics in this way, "Decision-Making for Supply Chain Integration" is a useful reference for researchers looking to develop their knowledge or find potential new avenues of research.
