Intended for an audience of graduate students, executive MBA students, and mid-to upper level government and corporate managers, this book examines the complexity of the types of organizations that comprise a modern supply chain, the problems that arise as a result of this complexity, and the solutions and analytical approaches available to managers that can help resolve these real world problems and dilemmas. The modern enterprise, be it a large corporation or a government agency, has two key dimensions of complexity: static and dynamic. The static complexity refers to the remarkable number of companies and agencies that enable delivery of the product or service. A static 'snapshot' of this end-to-end enterprise would reveal hundreds if not thousands of companies involved in the supply network and many additional firms involved in the distribution and delivery to customers.

Planning, communication, coordination and execution of this large system network is fundamentally challenging just because of the sheer size. This large, extended network represents the static complexity. The dynamic complexity arises from the difficulty of managing the performance of this extended enterprise over time. This requires having the appropriate metrics to track performance over time, the management skills to develop strategies, the ability to collect and monitor the correct data for true visibility, and the recognition and understanding of the long lags between actions and results.

This book incorporates real-world examples and cases, representing actual complex enterprise systems including firms involved and with long lead times, to illustrate the multi-faceted activities occurring within a modern supply chain and the challenges they pose to managers. Simulation and optimization techniques are introduced and used to develop strategies for improved performance.

Metal bracket is cheap and bends easily
Color: White, Size: 36"W x 12"D, 1 Pack
Worst shelf I have ever purchased. Waisted my money, do not waist yours. Installed with the anchors the shelf came with and it did not hold the shelf at all. This happened with nothing on the shelf, just trying to install with the directions given. The entire metal bracket bent and now the shelf is completely useless. IKEA would have been a better option. So disappointing

Looks good.
Color: Walnut, Size: 36"W x 12"D, 2 Pack
They look nice. Easy to mount. The level is garbage…throw it away. Pretty light weight. The stability is good as long as the heavier stuff is placed close to the back of the shelf. It price is to high for this product. Take about $30 off and it would be a reasonable price for the product.

Pantry shelves
Color: Oak, Size: 48"W x 12"D, 1 Pack, Color: Oak, Size: 48"W x 12"D, 1 Pack
The shelf is ok. The drywall anchor that comes with the shelf are useless and had to purchase better EZ toggle anchors. Wish the metal bracket was longer so it could hit two studs. Thickness is good. Light shelves. Assembly is fine if you purchase your own drywall anchors, stud screw and have your own level.
