Download or read book Lean Demand Driven Procurement written by Paul Myerson and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-11-08 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While there are many books written on the basics of the "supply" side of the supply chain (i.e. strategic sourcing, sourcing/procurement, and purchasing), there hasn’t been much written on those areas from a Lean perspective. Considering that supply chain costs, primarily procurement and transportation, can range from 50 to 70% of sales, it's surprising that this area has not been fully explored. As a result, some companies tend to place too much emphasis on the traditional focus of reducing material costs instead of process improvement. Lean Demand-Driven Procurement: How to Apply Lean Thinking to Your Supply Management Process details the basic supply management concepts and processes (i.e. sourcing, procurement, and purchasing) in an easy-to-understand format in combination with various process improvement tools, methodologies, best practices, examples, and cases written from a Lean perspective. It focuses and pinpoints ways to identify waste on the supply side through improved processes and, in some cases, technology. Applying Lean principles to procurement and purchasing processes identies non-traditional sources of waste, and in some cases, creates a paradigm shift that results in additional benets to the entire supply chain.

Download or read book Purchasing and Supply Chain Management written by Thomas E. Johnsen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-10-24 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the ground-breaking new book for aspiring purchasing and supply chain leaders and anyone with a keen interest in this rapidly evolving field. For too long business has focused on short-term cost advantages through low-cost country sourcing with little regard for the longer-term implications of global sustainability. As the first book to fully address the environmental, social and economic challenges of how companies manage purchasing and supply chains, it aims to inspire the development of current and future purchasing and supply chain leaders. In addition to explaining the basic principles and processes of both purchasing and supply chain management, the book evaluates how to develop strategic and sustainable purchasing and supply chain management. A key message is that purchasing and supply chain management needs to focus on value creation rather than cost cutting. This requires the development of completely new purchasing and supply chain models that involve closed-loop supply structures, supply chain transparency and collaboration with new stakeholders in traditional sourcing and supply chain processes. Aimed at students, educators and practitioners the book integrates sustainability into each chapter as a core element of purchasing and supply chain management. Incorporating case studies from industry into each chapter, the book strikes a balance between theoretical frameworks and guidelines for implementation in practice.

Download or read book Project Management written by Dennis Lock and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-01 with total page 638 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author's masterly exposition of the principles and practice of project management has been pre-eminent in its field for four decades. It was among the very few early books to treat project management holistically, rather than as a collection of separate techniques. It thus explains the entire project management process in great detail, demonstrating techniques ranging from the simplest of charts to sophisticated computer applications. Everything is reinforced throughout with case examples and diagrams. The text has been completely restructured and largely rewritten for this ninth edition, so that the sequence now follows even more closely the life-cycle of a typical project from its earliest definition to final close-out. Case examples and diagrams have all been reviewed, updated, augmented or replaced.
Download or read book Procurement and Supply Chain Management written by Kenneth Lysons and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 744 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Dr Brian Farrington is the author of the tenth edition of this acclaimed book. The output of any book is influenced by many sources, including: - professional feedback from lecturers at Universities and Colleges; their views are invaluable - the Chartered Institute of Procurement and Supply's education syllabus and the Institute's continual quest to enhance standards - legal challenges to procurement decisions - emphasis on environmental and socially responsible procurement - feedback from learners and practitioners - the author's international consultancy experience - the recognition that a procurement specialist has to exercise the highest moral and ethical standards and that some fall short - the challenge presented by cyber security. There are two new chapters, thanks to the foresight of Pearson. Public Sector Procurement is a new chapter, recognising the public sector's impact on the global economy. Public accountability means that scrutiny of decisions is far more open than the private sector. Sustainability & Socially Responsible Procurement is a new chapter, recognising that this is a highly challenging global issue wherein procurement has great influence. More initiatives are necessary. There has been a serious recasting of much of the content. There is an unrivalled opportunity for procurement specialists to manage risk, finance and corporate performance. The author seeks to instil in all procurement specialists the fact that effective and innovative procurement pays a significant part in the management of economies and corporate performance. A01"--

Download or read book International Handbook of Public Procurement written by Khi V. Thai and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-25 with total page 840 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the 1990s, government at all levels is under increasing pressure to do more with less. However, despite the U.S. government spending about 15 to 20 percent of its GDP on contracts for goods and services, there is a paucity of reference books for public procurement officials and very few textbooks for courses on the subject. Filling this void, the International Handbook of Public Procurement provides the knowledge necessary to understand how procurement works and how to improve the cost-effectiveness of procurement systems. Taking a multidisciplinary approach, the book focuses on the managerial, economic, political, and legal aspects of this topic. It begins with a conceptual framework and highlights various reforms occurring in certain countries. By examining these improvements, readers are able to apply this knowledge to their own strategies. The next section presents selected cases that illustrate the public procurement process, examining systems in various nations including Germany, China, South Africa, Cambodia, Uganda, and Estonia. The book also discusses the rise of electronic procurement systems (E-procurement) and reviews the benefits of these efficient systems. Other topics presented in this comprehensive volume include practical discussions on contract negotiations, bidding, price strategies and cost analysis, and an insightful chapter on the market’s response to contract award announcements. A virtual encyclopedia from numerous international experts, this book was assembled by Khi V. Thai, Professor at Florida Atlantic University and Editor of the Journal of Public Procurement. Dr. Thai has provided technical assistance in the area of public procurement to governments across the world. Empowering those on all sides of the issue, this volume dispenses advice valuable to government officials and contractors, as well as providing a comprehensive text for public administration students.
