BQOM 2533 - Global Supply Chain Management
The purpose of this petition is to add the Global Supply Chain Management
course to the Fall 2014 schedule at the Katz Graduate School of
Business.
This course will consider multi-facility supply and demand network
management from all three perspectives: operational, tactical and
strategic. We will emphasize the creation and maintenance of value in
the supply network, an activity critical to the survival of all
organizations. Value creation can be accomplished by increasing revenue
(e.g., by making the delivery system more flexible and responsive to the
customer) and/or by decreasing cost (e.g., by eliminating unnecessary
activities, and efficiently managing the others, from the distribution
channel). Topics covered will include those in the shorter version of
the course but in more detail. In addition, network design in uncertain
situations, inter-organizational partnerships for effective inventory
control, and revenue management will be covered. Using real-life case
studies and software packages, we will examine these intricacies of
supply and demand network management, learning about the underlying
tools, methodologies and decision support systems. A laptop is required
for this course.
