IMPLEMENTING CHANGE IN THE SUPPLY CHAIN

Undecided. I am in the process of considering recommending this book as a supplemental title for MSC students in logistics and supply. I am unsure about it because the quantitative tools of the discipline do not receive much coverage. The concepts however are robust and all of the major developments in the literature/theory receive discussion.
