The Quantitative Supply Chain Manifesto
- All possible futures must be considered; a probability for each possibility.
- All feasible decisions must be considered; possibilities vs. probabilities.
- Economic drivers must be used to prioritize feasible decisions.
- Being in control requires automation of every mundane task.
