Purchasing and supply chain management : a sustainability perspective Thomas E. Johnsen, Mickey Howard and Joe Miemczyk - 2nd ed. - New York : Routledge, 2019. - xviii, 408 p. ; ill. ; 25 cm.
1. Introduction -- Part A: Purchasing and sourcing. 2. The strategic sourcing and purchasing process ; 3. Purchasing strategy and organization ; 4. Sourcing strategy and supplier relationship management ; 5. Outsourcing ; 6. Global sourcing ; 7. Innovation and technology --
Part B: Supply chain and network management. 9. Service-based supply chains ; 10. Logistics decisions in the supply network ; 11. Distribution systems --
Part C: Policy, tools and implmentation. 12. Supply chain mapping and evaluation ; 13. Policy, standards and supplier assessment ; 14. Towards sustainable supply networks ; 15. Conclusion.
For too long, business has focused on short-term cost advantages through low-cost country sourcing with little regard for the longer-term implications of global sustainability. Purchasing and Supply Chain Management, Second Edition, not only fully addresses the environmental, social and economic challenges of how companies manage purchasing and supply chains, but also delves deeper into emerging areas such as modern slavery, digital technologies and circular supply chains. In addition to explaining the basic principles and processes of both purchasing and supply chain management, the book evaluates how to develop strategic and sustainable purchasing and supply chain management. Our key message is that purchasing and supply chain management needs to focus on value creation rather than cost cutting. This requires the development of new purchasing and supply chain models that involve circular supply structures, supply chain transparency and collaboration with new stakeholders in traditional sourcing and supply chain settings. Aimed at students, educators and practitioners the book integrates sustainability into each chapter as a core element of purchasing and supply chain management. This second edition incorporates new examples and case studies from industry throughout, striking a balance between theoretical frameworks and guidelines for implementation in practice
