This book introduces the concept of segmentation as the planning and scheduling tool that facilitates the optimization of the supply chain. If you have one type of problem in a part of your supply chain, you use the solution that appropriately focuses on that problem. If you have a different problem in a different part of your supply chain, then you use a different and appropriate tool for that part of the supply chain, and so forth. Or, if your product is in different stages of its life cycle, it probably requires a different set of tools for each stage of that life cycle. It discusses how to integrate planning and scheduling tools using a segmentation approach that results in a world-class supply chain environment and details the power of segmentation and offers a systematic plan for implementation in the supply chain. --
