Book description

Supply Chain Segmentation (SCS) has become a critical tool in optimizing supply chain performance. By using segmentation, an organization is taken out of the world of "one size fits all" and brought into a world that facilitates customized responses. This book explains what SCS is, how it works, and the role of analytics. The book gives detailed case studies demonstrating how SCS is applied and improves efficiency. It covers software appropriateness and integration, as well as a full summary perspective on segmentation and its competitive impacts in terms of economic pressure, supplier and consumer interfaces.
