Changes in the Tenth Edition
This new tenth edition is organized around the important and prevalent topic of operations as the creation of value along the supply chain. We describe how every chapter topic fits with in a supply chain framework in a company or organization in an increasingly global operating environment. Two chapters deal directly with supply chain management: Chapter 10, Supply Chain Management Strategy and Design, and Chapter 11, Global Supply Chain Procurement and Distribution. However, every chapter includes material relating the chapter topics to supply chain management in a global operating environment.
In addition, Chapter 5, Service Design, reflects the expanding presence and importance of the service sector in operations management. We have also added new material throughout the book on the increasingly important OM topics of sustainability, corporate social responsibility, global trade policies, securing the supply chain, and risk and resilience. To help us show how the OM topics in this new edition fit together within a supply chain framework, we open each chapter with a specific example about one product group, athletic shoes. Athletic shoes are ideal to use as an example to introduce the various
operations and supply chain management topics in this text because they are popular products that are familiar to our readers, their supply chain is global, and their production process includes technological and design innovations, as well as labor-intensive manufacturing.
In addition to opening each chapter with an athletic shoes example, this new edition also includes over 85 “Along the Supply Chain” boxes, over 50% of which are new, that describe real-world business applications of OM topics at companies around the world. Many of these boxes focus on the increasingly important topics of social responsibility and global supply chains. The boxes conclude with critical-thinking questions that can be used for assignments and in-class or online discussion. Chapter 1, Introduction to Operations and Supply Chain Management, focuses on examples of excellence in operations.
