Why you should read E-Supply Chain
Charles C. Poirier and Michael J. Bauer assert that the future of the American company will resemble an Internet version of the Japanese Keiretsu, interlocked firms within firms. This new value chain constellation - which shares buying, selling and customer information in real time - will offer advantages and services that no single company could ever hope to match working solo. getAbstract.com predicts that this will become a necessary textbook for any CEO or CPO who wants to maximize profits via supply chain optimization.
