Book Review: Transportation Systems Security

Posted on 2009-03-19 by

This book, Transportation Systems Security by by Allan McDougall and Robert Radvanovsky is not what I thought it would be, but it’s not the books fault, I have to admit that much. It’s the classic misunderstanding of the difference of the terms “safety” and “security”.

Magnified Risk in Multi-Enterprise Supply Chains

Posted on 2009-03-06 by

Supply chain owners need to view their supply chain as a community, because supply chains are interconnected, and thus, magnify risk in multi-enterprise supply chains. Even if the manufacturing takes place out-house, product design should be kept in-house.
