Previous books have addressed the importance of supplier integration in improving new product quality, time to market, and cost. This book, however, is the first to provide a clear strategy and a planning and execution process that is based on a three-year investigation at Michigan State University and highly successful companies' actual experiences. Written at the intermediate level, this title will benefit those in the manufacturing or service industries looking for information on designing and executing supplier integration strategies.
