In today’s increasingly complex retail business environment, measuring the health and performance of a company’s supply chain is critical to business success, both from a cost management and a customer satisfaction standpoint.
Achieving the level of measurement and visibility required, however, is a challenge in itself. Common obstacles such as metric and Key Performance Indicator (KPI) definition, cross-departmental alignment, and lack of end-to-end metric definition can cause many measurement programs to fall short of their charter. Using a standards based framework such as the Supply Chain Operations Reference (SCOR®) model from the Supply Chain Council can help retailers avoid many of these obstacles, with an industry accepted metric hierarchy that spans departmental functions to enforce alignment with corporate objectives.

This book should be read by anyone who cares about the security and privacy of their online information, and wants to know how to take steps to protect it … and that should be everyone. This book should be read by anyone who wants to “do the right thing” and ensure that they do not inadvertently compromise their employer’s, or their own, sensitive information … and that should be everyone.
