Excerpt from Optimizing the Value Chain on Desktop Workstations
About twenty years ago, managers began to sense that emerging information technologies could provide timely data which, when used to integrate diverse activities, would allow costs to be significantly reduced. In most companies, however, accomplishing integration proved elusive because harnessing the new technologies proved much more difficult than anticipated. Some firms have taken ten years, or more, to create and organize the data bases and computer infrastructure upon which to establish integrated planning and control.
This situation is changing radically. Many companies have finally assembled reasonably complete and accessible corporate information systems. As a result, managers are actively seeking new tools for analyzing their large, numerical data bases to identify strategies for reducing costs and improving competitive advantage.

Excerpt from Optimizing the Value Chain on Desktop Workstations
We discuss developments in the theory and practice of integrated planning based on the concept of a company's value chain. We provide details of quantitative analyses performed on powerful new workstations using a data management and modeling system based on linear and mixed integer programming. The system employs spreadsheets, a fourth generation data management package, and a graphics package to support model data entry, reporting and maintenance. Our discussion includes an in-depth treatment of an integrated planning study in a consumer products company.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book illustrates how to successfully integrate mathematical models and optimization to analyze and resolve complex planning problems in supply chain management. The author argues that integrated planning based on mathematical programming can significantly benefit a company's competitive position regarding costs and decision-making processes. Additionally, the author asserts that mathematical models offer a framework for organizing data to support tactical and strategic decision-making. The ideas presented in this book have significant implications for the practice and study of integrated planning. Readers gain a deeper understanding of an effective yet underexplored approach to supply chain management through the author's exploration of the concepts and applications of integrated planning with mathematical programming. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781332273362_0
