Flexible Supply Chain: Industrial Engineering Optimization Modeling of the Postal Service System provides an understanding of the techniques of using flexibility to improve operations. It capitalizes on a framework of Industrial Engineering and focuses on a global chain of non-commodity products and services. By using flexibility as the foundation for efficiency, it ties in with the digital revolution of communication and retains an affiliation with community involvement. The book uses the DEJI Systems Model and the Triple C Model as a structure of system productivity and creates a template through which other supply chains can be improved. The global supply chain is presently stressed and in need of new ideas and operational strategies.
