  <title><![CDATA[Supply Chain Glitches and Shareholder Value Destruction]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>Supply chain management is on everybody's mind today. Effective supply chain management has been heralded as the next source of building, sustaining and winning competitive advantage. Academics, consultants, managers and business writers have all spoken widely about the compelling bottom-line benefits and tremendous pay-offs that accrue to firms from developing effective supply chains. Others have talked about the strong correlation between excellence in supply chain management and shareholder value. Yet, hard evidence to support these claims seems to be limited. Much of the evidence is anecdotal and case-study oriented and is often based on non-financial metrics.

  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
