Supply Chain Transformation: Building and Executing an Integrated Supply Chain Strategy

I have read many supply chain books, but this is simply wonderful! Clear concepts and beautiful examples. It is a very easy to read and revealing book for all SCM professionals.

What a great book, I have had the pleasure of having Dr. Dittman as a professor at the University of Tennessee. He is very knowledgeable and has worked and consulted with some of the biggest companies in the world. A MUST read for any professional or student in the Supply Chain field.

This book was better than I expected. The real life examples make Dr. Dittman's logic easy to understand. The case study in the final chapter really brings everything together.I am a mid level manager with most of my experience in warehousing & transportation.I bought this book to obtain new ideas in effort educate myself and possibly bring our company to the next level.Obviously I could not do this by myself but Dr. Dittman lays out in detail how it should be done.Can I do this, not sure but at the very least I obtained nice ideas.I would recommend this read for any mid-level management up to top chiefs in any retail, manufacturing, distribution, etc organization.I am actually going to read it again.

This book lays out very clearly a path to take when developing a strategy. The examples given provide clear direction.

Read this for college class and did a report on it great book Supply chain nice and simply short and to the point

For the content and cost this is the best supply chain print book to date with the entire structure of how to correctly build a cost effective supply chain.

Good book

I think the title may be a bit misleading, but once you get to the overall point of the book you understand what it ment. It is a recollection of studies done by Dittmann on various companies in the US, which makes it a usefull reasource because it contains hard evidence and so many examples that many people might relate with some.I would use this book as a complement to other textbooks on the topic.

The author provides a Logical and straight forward Framework for creating a supply chain strategy. Having said that, after the initial chapters, many of the explanations in the book get stuck in very Basic concepts, that seem to be commonly known in todays Business world. Yes, common sense is not that common, but for example several pages of explanations why it is a good idea to involve your Controller when Building a Business case seem a bit trival.
