About this book

Implementing co-operative production networks is a major strategic target of many small- and medium-sized enterprises to secure and foster future competitiveness on the global market. Beginning with the strategic management and going down to the operational product development and operations execution, this book gives a detailed overview of the different key issues of setting up strategic production networks. Management concepts, the required information technology as well as best practices are introduced and discussed by leading researchers from Germany, Switzerland and China. The book aims at supporting managers responsible for setting up global or regional co-operative production networks as well as researchers and students working on this matter.

Reviews

From the reviews:

"This book presents an overview of the different co-operative approaches in terms of merger/takeover, joint venture, strategic network, outsourcing and de-investment (sale). … the text makes a valuable contribution to manufacturing literature and will support managers responsible for setting up global or regional co-operative production networks." (International Logistics Abstracts, Vol. 32 (4), 2002)
