"Supply Chain Architecture: A Blueprint for Networking the Flow of Material, Information, and Cash applies five crucial business principles to solve network problems for geographically separated workers who must team together to deliver products and services." "These five principles - Velocity, Variability, Vocalize, Visualize, and Value - simplify the design and operation of complex, real-world supply chain networks for broad use throughout the manufacturing and service sectors. Written by an accomplished practitioner in common sense language, this "how to" book provides a complete blueprint for transforming marginal business relationships into exceptionally competitive networks."--BOOK JACKET.
