Год издания:
Cadena de suministro y logistica recoge mas de veinte anos de experiencia en la actividad logistica en el sector privado y amplia y actualiza la anterior publicacion de Adolfo Carreno, Logistica de la A a la Z, para ser entendida desde un enfoque de cadena de suministro. El libro incluye mas de 120 ejercicios, lo que lo hace especialmente util para estudiantes y docentes de pregrado y maestria en el campo de la logistica y cadena de suministro, tanto en universidades como en escuelas de negocio. La teoria y los problemas desarrollados estan adaptados de situaciones reales vividas por el autor en su ejercicio profesional, por lo que esta obra tambien puede ser consultada por gerentes o directores de cadena de suministro de empresas que tengan operaciones internacionales y locales. Consciente de los constantes cambios vividos en el sector logistico global, el autor analiza y desarrolla las situaciones de la logistica internacional en el contexto de las nuevas INCOTERMS 2010, vigentes desde enero de 2011.

Organizing and administering a construction site so that the right resources get to the right place in a timely fashion demands strong leadership and a rigorous process. Good logistical operations are essential to profitability, and this book is the essential, muddy boots guide to efficient site management. Written by experienced educator-practitioners from the world-leading Building Construction Management program at Purdue University, this volume is the ultimate guide to the knowledge, skills, and abilities that need to be mastered by project superintendents. Observations about leadership imperatives and techniques are included.Organizationally, the book follows site-related activities from bidding to project closeout. Beyond outlining broad project managerial practices, the authors drill into operational issues such as temporary soils and drainage structures, common equipment, and logistics. The content is primarily geared for the manager of a domestic or small commercial building construction project, but includes some reference to public and international work, where techniques, practices, and decision making can be substantially different.The book is structured into five sections and fifteen chapters. This facilitates ready adaptation either to industry training seminars or to university courses: Section I. The Project and Site Pre-Planning: The Construction Project and Site Environment (Randy R. Rapp); Due Diligence (Robert Cox); Site Organization and Layout (James O'Connor). Section II. The Site and Field Engineering Issues: Building Layout (Douglas Keith); Soil and Drainage Issues (Yi Jiang and Randy R. Rapp). Section III. Site Logistics: Site Logistical Procedures and Administration (Daphene Koch); Earthmoving (Douglas Keith); Material Handling Equipment (Bryan Hubbard). Section IV. Leadership and Control: Leadership and Communication (Bradley L. Benhart); Health, Safety, Environment (HSE), and Security (Jeffrey Lew); Project Scheduling (James Jenkins); Project Site Controls (Joseph Orczyk); Inspection and QA/QC (James Jenkins). Section V. Planning for Completion: Site-Related Contract Claims (Joseph Orczyk); Project Closeout (Randy R. Rapp).
