A Global Supply Chain Perspective. Hardcover, Cengage

Introduce students to what is arguably the most critical and complex component of global supply chains with Novack/Gibson/Suzuki's TRANSPORTATION: A GLOBAL SUPPLY CHAIN PERSPECTIVE, 10E. Comprehensive coverage and a managerial approach highlight the importance of transportation in today's companies and society. Students examine the framework for transportation from both a micro and macro perspective. Updates explore the theoretical and managerial dimensions of transportation in supply chains, including regulation and public policy, while also reviewing operations, service and cost structure. The authors spotlight transportation management issues with insights into strategic challenges in the movement of goods through the supply chain. New readings, updated cases and current examples emphasize global topics with new coverage of hard and soft technology and expanded discussions of fuel, energy, managerial, economic and environmental issues. Instructor resources are also available.
