Supply chain management was one of the most effective management methods in the 1990s. BDO implemented a supply chain management model for Sharp Corporation in Japan, which increased the company's market response speed by 6 times, achieved an annual inventory turnover of 24 times, and a 99.5% on-time delivery rate for orders, while reducing costs by nearly $600 million. This supply chain management model was achieved through SAP's APO. This book is a comprehensive introduction to supply chain management and related topics, and introduces the advanced planning system APO and its applications in an easy-to-understand manner. It is definitely worth reading.
