Editorial Reviews

"Anyone associated with, or working within, the supply-chain sector, would benefit from owning a copy of this excellent and brilliant workbook. It has been thoroughly researched, written and well presented by Francis Harrison.

...a useful starting point by clearly signposting the way forward and highlighting any weak spots relating to the understanding of supply-chain matters.

...this workbook will not let the proactive and positive person - or company - down."
