Introducing the new topic of supply chain economics, this comprehensive title combines theory and practice - including real-world case studies - to bring new methodology and models for mapping the construction sector.

Supply chain management security : the weak link of Australian critical infrastructure protection

Secure management of Australia’s commercial Critical Infrastructure presents ongoing challenges to both the owners of this infrastructure as well as to the Australian Federal government. The security management process is currently managed through high-level information sharing via collaboration, but does this situation suit the commercial sector? One of the issues facing Australia is that the majority of critical infrastructure resides under the control of the business sector and certain aspects such of the critical infrastructure such as Supply Chain Management (SCM) systems are distributed entities that span a number of commercial organisations. Another issue is that these SCM systems can be used for the transportation of varied items, such as retail items or food. This paper will explore the security issue related to food SCM systems and their relationship to critical infrastructure. The paper will focuses upon the security and risk issues associated with SCM system protection within the realms of critical infrastructure protection. The paper will review the security standard ISO 28000 - Supply Chain Security Management Standard. The paper will propose a new conceptual security risk analysis approach that will form the basis of a future Security Risk Analysis approach. This new approach will be aimed at protecting SCM systems.

Critical supply chain systems and critical infrastructure protection

Secure management of Australia's commercial critical infrastructure presents ongoing challenges to both the owners of this infrastructure as well as to the government. It is currently managed through high-level information sharing via collaboration but does this situation suit the commercial sector? One of the issues facing Australia is that the majority of critical infrastructure resides under the control of the business sector and certain aspects such of the critical infrastructure such as supply chain management (SCM) systems are distributed across a number of entities. The paper focuses upon the security and risk issues associated with SCM systems within the realms of critical infrastructure protection.

Cyber attacks against supply chain management systems: A short note

Supply chain management (SCM) is increasingly dependent on electronic systems. At the same time, the vulnerability of these systems to attack from malicious individuals or groups is growing. This paper examines some of the forms such attacks can take, and their relevance to the supply function. Provides examples of attacks. Concludes that companies should consider the security aspects of electronic commerce before developing their systems. © MCB University Press.

Proposta de modelo teórico de treinamento e desenvolvimento de colaboradores nas empresas de transformação industrial: cadeias do cliente, fornecedor, valor, extended supply chain, innovation chain, integrated supply chain e supply chain

Trata de propor um modelo teórico de treinamento & desenvolvimento para a efetiva disseminação dos conceitos pertinentes ao integrated supply chain centrado no homem, observando as vertentes científicometodológica, digital, econõnu ca, psicológica, social e técnica e embasado na teoria do impacto, que compreende o ambiente de trabalho, experiência do aprendizado e características individuais. Com base nesse modelo, o autor advoga a necessidade de transformar os modelos de pesquisa, desenvolvimento e difusão, interação social e tomada de decisão e resolução de problemas ~ropostos por Havelock na década de 60, respectivamente, em Disseminação, Facilitação e Inovação.

Supply chain : as vantagens da integração logística : aplicação para uma indústria de processo

Trata do sistema de gerenciamento da supply chain (Logística, Compras e distribuição). Explica seu conceito, evolução, componentes e inter-relações, demonstrando sua aplicação em uma empresa de processo. Mostra, em um conceito amplo; as vantagens da integração da supply chain, onde o fluxo de materiais, produtos e informações é executado dentro de uma visão sistêmica englobando desde. os sub-fornecedores envolvidos até os clientes finais.
