King Saud University Global Supply Chain Management Airbus A380 Case Study

With chapter 4, we begin Part 2 of the text. Part 2 consists of chapters 4 – 7.

Here, the focus is on the centre of our model of logistics: the flow of materials, lead times and the network in a global context. The logistics task ultimately boils down to orchestrating the flow of materials and information in the supply chain
