For anyone not involved in strategic planning for a manufacturing firm, they will probably know that the logistical problems are legendary. Just think about a firm manufacturing one product. They have to respond to fluctuating demand, seasonal demand, coordinate myriads of suppliers, understand quality issues, fulfilment, manage costs and after all of that hope that costs are less than revenues. When you factor in larger firms with multiple product lines, then you start to understand why logistics and production management are some of the key competencies of any manufacturing firm, and are a matter of life and death to them.
The briefing saves busy executives, strategists and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
