Intended for an audience of graduate students, executive MBA students, and mid-to upper level government and corporate managers, this book examines the complexity of the types of organizations that comprise a modern supply chain, the problems that arise as a result of this complexity, and the solutions and analytical approaches available to managers that can help resolve these real world problems and dilemmas. The modern enterprise, be it a large corporation or a government agency, has two key dimensions of complexity: static and dynamic. The static complexity refers to the remarkable number of companies and agencies that enable delivery of the product or service. A static 'snapshot' of this end-to-end enterprise would reveal hundreds if not thousands of companies involved in the supply network and many additional firms involved in the distribution and delivery to customers.

Planning, communication, coordination and execution of this large system network is fundamentally challenging just because of the sheer size. This large, extended network represents the static complexity. The dynamic complexity arises from the difficulty of managing the performance of this extended enterprise over time. This requires having the appropriate metrics to track performance over time, the management skills to develop strategies, the ability to collect and monitor the correct data for true visibility, and the recognition and understanding of the long lags between actions and results.

This book incorporates real-world examples and cases, representing actual complex enterprise systems including firms involved and with long lead times, to illustrate the multi-faceted activities occurring within a modern supply chain and the challenges they pose to managers. Simulation and optimization techniques are introduced and used to develop strategies for improved performance.

High quality, durable, loved by my chewer *
Size: Medium (Pack of 1), Style: Stick Medium
Excellent chew bone Toy for aggressive chewer. I've purchased this same brand bone/ Toy for several years. One lasts at least 1-2 years ( if it doesn't get run over by a lawn mower). Lol. I usually pay $8-$9 for one in retail stores. This is an excellent price at $6. Squeaker stops after a few months but my Field Spaniel dog is deaf now anyway! He loves chewing on this for his gums and when people are gathered in the same room he just starts chewing and enjoying himself in the midst of fellowship.

I got this for my 95lb lab who is an aggressive chewer thinking that it looked durable and would last a while. He tore it apart within an hour and I had to throw it away.

Felt durable but it couldn’t hold up
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Style: Stick Large, Size: Large (Pack of 1), Style: Stick Large
I really thought my pet wouldn’t be able to destroy it but it’s in tiny pieces in the trash now. we played together and she was gentle I guess because she didn’t bite or tug hard at all I left her alone with it like I’ve done before but this time she broke it down in chunks. Did not have this toy for more then 24 hours.

Great fun & strong!!!
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Style: Stick Large
These are the best sticks ever! Our dogs chew and slobber all over these for sometimes an hour at a time. They like the “give” texture when they chew it. Imagine an indestructible, gummy bear! Because of their softness, they don’t end up with sharp edges or texture, although they are sturdy, and very durable. We have had these for our two dogs for close to a month now and it is their go to indoor to stick. The gentle squeak is not loud and obnoxious, but a playful sound that has them coming back for more with each chomp! If you love your dogs, this is the cheese stick for them. He’s also make an excellent fetch stick as they can go inside or outside. They wash off easily with water. This is a great investment, especially if you’ve been wasting your money replacing toys for strong jawed dogs!
