William D. Peace, Jr. (Purdue University) recently published "Supply Chain Management: The Real WOW Factor" (242 pages; Lulu.com, February 2011; $39.95 paperback and PDF download). He draws on more than three decades of experience in supply chain management for Procter & Gamble, from which he’s now retired. “Supply chain management is vitally important in today’s global competitive business environment, and moving product more efficiently through all stages of manufacturing, ordering, and distribution provides companies with a distinct advantage in the marketplace,” Peace wrote in an email. “My book delves into the critical elements needed to succeed in business, grow volume, improve profits, and delight customers around the world.” Check out his website at www.omconsultingsite.com.
