INTRODUCTION

This book is the result of our research into what instructors what to teach in the core OSCM course. The title, Operations and Supply Management: The Core, reflects current interest in Supply Chain Management. The book is designed to include topics that are appropriate for an overview of Operations Management while emphasizing Supply Chain concepts.

It is our view that operations management and supply chain management is an integrated topic that spans the traditional Operations Management, Purchasing and Logistics fields. Supply chain management focuses on the flows of material through the network all the way from fourth and third tier supplies all the way out to the final customer.

Supply chain management seems to place less emphasis on “internal” factory operations which has traditionally been a core operations management focus (i.e. MRP and scheduling). Traditional operations management focuses on coordination from first tier suppliers, through the factory, and out to the warehouse.
