Useful for someone with less than 5 yrs exp
Very low level review of supply mgmt topics. Would be useful for someone with less than 5 years of experience. Too rudimentary for an experienced manager.

Gives a good overview of the Procurement Cycle with concise explanations
Gives a good overview of the Procurement Cycle with concise explanations. Better suited for those new to Procurement and Supply Chain concepts than those working in the field or with a SCM background. This book wasn't quite what I was looking for but would recommend it to someone who is trying to improve their general knowledge of Procurement either in the workplace or in academia.

Auffrischung der Grundkenntnisse
das Buch gibt in recht generellen Zügen einen Einblick in Aspekte, welche man beachten sollte beim internationalen Einkauf. das Level befindet sich in etwa auf den Anfängen eines Bachelor kurses. Ich hatte mir etwas mehr erhofft, und zwar dass das Buch mehr detaillierte Auskünfte geben könnte, bzw. ein paar gute Beispiele nennt. Es ist nie wirklich gute Themen nur an der Oberfläche an zu kratzen, wenn ich dann auch vor Ort in die Tiefe zu gehen.
