We continue to live in dynamic and exciting times. The recent 20 years have seen many changes that have affected nearly every aspect of business-including operations man- agement. In this third edition of our book, we continue to reflect key shifts in operations management, including transitions:

• From a focus on the internal system to a focus on the supply chain In today’s highly competitive busi- ness environment, organizations must leverage the capabilities of their suppliers and customers. Opera- tions managers must look beyond the “four walls” of the firm and take an integrated supply chain perspec- tive of operations.

• From a local focus to a global focus As Thomas L. Friedman pointed out,1 the world is indeed flat. Business solutions generated in Argentina are used to meet needs in the United States, and parts built by suppliers located in China are used to assemble cars in Canada. Commercial needs have overcome, to a large part, national borders, presenting new opportu- nities and challenges for operations managers.

• From an emphasis on tools and techniques to an emphasis on systems, people, and processes To be successful, operations managers must think more broadly than just the application of analyti- cal tools and techniques. They must take a systems view to address important managerial issues such as designing processes, working with people, managing information flows, and building interorganizational relationships.

• From myopic pursuit of profit to a holistic pursuit of sustainability. Pressures on businesses have risen to the point that they can no longer ignore or give only lipservice to social and environmental issues. Operations managers have to balance the profit motive with the need to protect and even strengthen both people and the planet.

Managing Operations Across the Supply Chain pro- vides a global, supply chain perspective of operations man- agement for students in introductory courses in operations management and in supply chain management courses that do not require an operations management prerequisite. While the book is primarily written for undergraduates,

it also can be used effectively in MBA courses. There are several features that help to differentiate this book in its view of operations management:

• Broader Treatment of Operations Management While many operations management textbooks have revised or added a chapter to address supply chain issues, we developed our book from the ground up to effectively integrate operations management and the supply chain. The primary focus of the book is opera- tions management, but we provide a “supply chain” perspective. Operations management cuts across a firm’s boundaries, bringing together its internal activ- ities with the operations of customers, suppliers, and other partners around the world. We clarify the func- tional roles of operations, supply management, and logistics while examining the integrative processes that make up the supply chain. One unique aspect of the book is that we examine both the upstream (sup- ply-side) and downstream (demand-side) aspects of the supply chain, including a discussion of marketing and customer relationships.

• Balanced Treatment The book balances the quanti- tative and qualitative coverage needed to equip opera- tions and supply chain managers for the challenges and opportunities they face. It describes and applies analytical tools that operations managers use to sup- port decision making. However, we also address the important managerial issues such as systems, people, and processes that are critical in a supply chain context.

• Use of Integrative Frameworks The various ele- ments of operations management are introduced and developed using an operations strategy framework that brings together three critical elements: (1) the key customer, (2) the value proposition, and (3) capabilities. Furthermore, the students are introduced to operations management in a structured way that begins with the “big” picture of operations strategy, proceeds to the foundations of operations manage- ment, integrating relationships, planning for inte- grated supply chain operations, and then ending with a discussion of how to manage the system looking to the future.

Preface vii

• Use of Integrating Themes Three key themes are highlighted throughout the book: global issues, relationships, and sustainability. Because most organizations have supply chains that reach beyond a single country, we examine global issues associated with operations and supply chain management. Organizations must collaborate with customers and suppliers to accomplish many operations activities. Thus, the book show-cases how to build, maintain, and benefit from cross-functional and interorganizational relationships. To reduce costs and be competitive, organizations today must adapt sustainable business practices. We expect sustainability to increasingly become a key metric for operations and supply chain management performance. Accordingly, we have dedicated an entire chapter to sustainability, while also incorporating it throughout the book.

• Real, Integrated Examples The book brings operations and supply chain management to life through opening vignettes, Get Real highlights, and rich examples throughout the book.

Managing Operations Across the Supply Chain offers a new, global, supply chain perspective of operations management-a treatment that embraces the foundations of operations management but includes new frameworks, concepts, and tools to address the demands of today and changing needs of the future. The book is organized into five major sections:

• Part 1 Supply Chain: A Perspective for Operations Management provides an overview of operations management as a field, and describes the strategic role operations has in business from the perspective of supply chain management.

• Part 2 Foundations of Operations Management discusses foundational process concepts and principles that govern all operational activities. This section examines concepts such as product/process innovation, quality, lean, and inventory fundamentals.

• Part 3 Integrating Relationships Across the Supply Chain deals with the primary functional relationships between internal operations management activities and other operational functions both inside and outside the firm. This section describes customer relationship management, supply management, and logistics management.

• Part 4 Planning for Integrated Operations Across the Supply Chain discusses planning approaches and technologies used at different levels of operations decision making. Key topics such as demand planning, forecasting, sales and operations planning, inventory management, and materials requirements planning are examined.

• Part 5 Managing Change in Supply Chain Operations discusses how operations managers use projects, change programs, and technologies to shape a sustainable future for operations and supply chain management.
