Usefull reference book.......2006-08-05
It is really usefull as for reference as for review an existing Supply Chain.
Chief Procurement Officer.......2002-12-15
I bought this book this weekend and started reading it. It was in a nice display of "recommended" reading at the airport book store in Singapore. Having been in both IBM and E2open (Supply Chain software) and now Agere Systems.... no doubt in my mind - the value is clear. Implementation is complex with competing solutions and agendas. Issue is even in the same industry you have too many competing solutions. I noticed CAPS has been pushing the same themes. I liked the way you put it together and got it published.
I am currently focused on building a Supply Chain which is geographically located with the supply base. This is a huge advantage as Value Chains can not overcome the timezone - same day impact. The core advantages of key supplier relationship management are also local and can not be overcome by distance. If we can automate human behavior in these management sytstems the value chain will really gain speed.

"Very good value": Book review from the "SCM Review".......2002-12-05
The title is a bit misleading: the book is about a lot more than redesign. Specifically it looks at the many processes and technologies associated with supply chain management. The subject matters covered run the gamut from the basics of supply chain management to supplier relationships to the fast-changing B2B landscape. The premise of educators Handfield and Nichols is that the more effectively you integrate these activities the more value you create across the supply chain. . . . The bottom line is that the pluses far outweight the minuses. The authors have a knack for explaining a range of supply chain concepts and techniques clearly. Just as important, they reinforce the discussion with real-life examples. Every major topic is introduced by a case study that sets the context for the discussion to follow. One final observation: From a cost-benefit standpoint, Supply Chain Redesign represents a good value in today's market. Very few books these days present this much worthwhile supply chain information for such a relatively low price.
Review published in the Supply Chain Management Review, November-December 2002, p. 59.

Book Description
As products, pricing and distribution are fast becoming commodities, companies are discovering that strong brand relationships are an added value and a way to sustain growth. Integrated marketing (IM) is the cross-functional process for creating this brand value. It's a blueprint for managing relationship-sensitive factors such as critical brand contact points, two-way interactivity with customers and aftermarket support. IM shows companies how to strategically use new database management systems and communication technologies to cost effectively measure and control what until now was considered the ``intangible'' side of business. With the increase in mergers, acquisitions, global expansion and competition, growing and retaining brand relationships has never been tougher. Authors Tom Duncan and Sandra Moriarty's practical, hands-on business model for integrated marketing addresses these challenges. Through case studies of Saturn, Montblanc and Gillette, Driving Brand Value shows managers what processes need to be in place and how companies need to be organized to use IM. Driving Brand Value shows executives: How to recognize the 7 red flags of Marketing Dis-Integration; The 10 strategic drivers of Integrated Marketing; How to use Mission Marketing to achieve corporate goals; How to manage a brand's total communication package; 20 tough questions to ask when looking for an IM agency.

Product Description
This book discusses how the importance of river flow-sustained ecosystems for local communities can be quantified for the purpose of balancing water supply and demand in Integrated Water Resources Management. Due to the development of water resources, for example through the construction of reservoirs, the natural flow regime of rivers is altered which results in changes in the river and floodplain ecosystem. Environmental flows describe the river flow regime necessary to protect the river ecosystem. The importance of this ecosystem for peoples' food, income, health or other purposes, are referred to in this work as the human well-being values of environmental flows. The publication provides an approach to quantify the relationship between river flows, the river ecosystem and human well-being values and discusses the application of this approach in two case studies, in Bangladesh and in Iran. The approach proved to structure the assessment of well-being values and to yield additional useful information that can contribute to the enhancement of social equity in Integrated Water Resources Management.

Book Description
This book is one of the first to deal with raising the value of a company by exploiting all its internal and external potentials. Integrated Value Management takes a holistic approach to corporate strategy. This is unusual in management books, which tend to bias themselves towards one particular paradigm or field of management. It deliberately presents a European perspective against the more commonly found American approach to management, and backs this up through the selection of case studies which illustrate the theories. The book exemplifies theory through easily understood practical examples emphasising application.

Strategic Complexity Addressed.......2001-08-21
Integrated Value Management provides a framewwork for understanding the dynamics underlying value creation and management of both publicly and privately held companies. Many books have been written in recent years regarding facets of value creation (e.g. knowledge capital), however, this is the only book I have found that does not limit itself to one, or best a few, dimensions of value. While conveying a theoretical feeling, Gomez writes the book based on actual experience as a mangement consultant. Therefore, the book maintains a delicate balance between theory and practice, a balance many seek and few master.
Integrated Value Management makes liberal use of insightful graphics that walk the reader through structured applications of the methodology. This approach is both a strength, and a weakness of the book. Many strategy books leave the reader with an empty feeling of "well that was interesting...now where do I start". Rather, Gomez provides an approach for those readers who wish to stick with it that can be utilized as a foundation for strategic thinking.
The foundation of Integrated Value Management is based on a field called System Dynamics, which is the application of advanced techniques to better understand the nature of complex systems. Unfortunately, generations of MBA's have been trained to break down problems through analysis, which too often leaves them not being able to "see the forest for the trees". Gomez's systemic view rather provides insight into the complex web or network of interelated variables that drive behavior of the system. Through these techniques, the practitioner is able to distinguish between controllable and uncontrallable variables, and better focus efforts with results. This systems view of the world can accomodate many perspectives (e.g. financial, operational, environmental, etc.), and thus does not have the built-in limitations of approaches that are based on single disciplines (e.g. cost-accounting). I highly recommend the book for both the serious minded excutive faced with strategic challenges, and the student wishing to learn a new way of understanding and managing strategic complexity.
