"Offers a comprehensive introduction to the purchasing and supply chain management field, supported by over 40 case studies. This book includes cases which cover purchasing and supply chain issues in a variety of settings, from process industries to high tech manufacturing and services as well as public institutions. In this edition the focus on decision making in the supply chain has also been strengthened considerably. The chapter sequence reflects the chronological order of the acquisition process. Criteria for supply decisions have been identified in three categories: (1) strategic, (2) operational, and (3) additional. It is the third category with balance sheet and income statement considerations, all dimensions of risk, environmental, and social considerations that is growing in relevance, making sound supply decisions an even more complex challenge." -- Preface
