SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
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. --
