Abstract

Global Operations Management (GOM) focuses on the set of processes that create goods (and/or services). GOM refers to the global integration of the purchasing, production and distribution processes within a firm. The efficiency of such an integration constitutes a major competition factor. The performance is measured in terms of costs, quality, lead-time delivery and flexibility to respond to changes. This course presents the fundamental issues concerning information and flow management optimization in processes and supply chains, both for manufacturing and service companies.
