Summary |
Annotation Every day thousands of companies lose billions of dollars in profits by not practising strategic sourcing. The Incredible Payback details strategies that can help companies spend 20 to 30 percent less on a day-to-day basis on materials and services, while producing better quality finished products. The authors use case studies from companies such as Honda and Harley-Davidson to illustrate how each dollar that is spent on people, systems and materials can show big paybacks |
