Operations Management Reading: Strategic Sourcing
內容大綱
An organization's strategic sourcing decisions determine where and how it procures products and services. Choosing which resources and capabilities to develop internally and which to procure externally requires an understanding of the firm's business and operations strategies, its current and potential operational profile, and any external threats or opportunities. This Reading covers sourcing decisions, such as make-or-buy decisions, as well as decisions on where and how production takes place (the tradeoff's geographic proximity degree of integration and information-sharing, contractual conditions, and the optimal number of suppliers) in both manufacturing and services, domestically and globally.
