Updated with several new examples throughout - now including an even wider range of different types of organisation. Four new case studies (bringing the total to 18) explore real-life practical applications to use in class or individually to ground theoretical concepts: House Partnerships at Concept Design Services, IKEA Looks to the Future, Kaston-Trenton Services, and computer game development at Widescale Studio. "To me, the textbook of Slack and Lewis is the best in the field of Operations Strategy." Jan de Vries, Professor of Operations Management, University of Groningen, The Netherlands
