About the book

In this book titled ‘The Strategy-Driven Supply Chain’, Prof. dr. Bram Desmet builds further on his earlier developed concept of ‘the Supply Chain Triangle of Service, Cost, and Cash’.

By using strategy models as a starting point, Bram guides you for (re-)designing your supply chain and elevating your business planning processes to the next “Integrated Value Planning & Execution” level, with aligned supply chain, financial and corporate objectives, and strategies.
