This book examines the management of Procuring Complex Performance (PCP) in large-scale programmes that includes the downstream support phase in sectors such as construction, healthcare, transport, aerospace, marine and defence. It brings together a series of edited chapters to explain why the traditional combination of linear project management and highly detailed contracts are now unsuited to the dynamics of emerging customer requirements based on performance and outcome. Working with leading business professors across the UK and Europe, Caldwell and Howard present the case for why large-scale programmes of world class organizations often represent a shifting frontier between the boundaries of public-private provision and silos of operations expertise. Adopting a procurement perspective, the authors explain how complex performance means not just coping with the dynamics of buyer-supplier relationships, but incorporates the shift from production orientation towards availability of bundled services such as maintenance and upgrade delivered over extended, often multi-decade timeframes. The strength of ‘PCP’ is its empirical case-based support for new business models based on through-life management, availability contracting and service support which challenge simplistic notions of dyadic, hierarchical relationships and transfer of risk to the supply base. This unique publication is essential reading for scholars and practitioners seeking to understand the context of innovation and supply as a coordinated and integrated approach to managing and procuring complex performance.

How can businesses marry the short-term advantages of low-cost country sourcing with the longer-term implications of global sustainability? Are we heading for a sustainability crisis? Procurement and Supply Chain Management: A Sustainability Perspective, Third Edition, not only fully addresses the environmental, social, and economic challenges of how companies manage procurement and supply chains but also provides coverage of new and emerging concerns including supply chain risk and resilience, transparency, and digital supply chains. In addition to explaining the basic principles and processes of both procurement and supply chain management, the book evaluates how to develop strategic and sustainable procurement and supply chain management.The authors’ key message is that procurement and supply chain management needs to focus on value creation rather than cost cutting. This requires the development of new procurement and supply chain models that involve circular supply structures, supply chain transparency, and collaboration with new stakeholders in traditional sourcing and supply chain settings. Aimed at students, educators, and practitioners the book integrates sustainability into each chapter as a core element of procurement and supply chain management.This third edition incorporates new examples and case studies from industry throughout, striking a balance between theoretical frameworks and guidelines for implementation in practice.

For too long, business has focused on short-term cost advantages through low-cost country sourcing with little regard for the longer-term implications of global sustainability. Purchasing and Supply Chain Management, Second Edition, not only fully addresses the environmental, social and economic challenges of how companies manage purchasing and supply chains, but also delves deeper into emerging areas such as modern slavery, digital technologies and circular supply chains.In addition to explaining the basic principles and processes of both purchasing and supply chain management, the book evaluates how to develop strategic and sustainable purchasing and supply chain management. Our key message is that purchasing and supply chain management needs to focus on value creation rather than cost cutting. This requires the development of new purchasing and supply chain models that involve circular supply structures, supply chain transparency and collaboration with new stakeholders in traditional sourcing and supply chain settings.Aimed at students, educators and practitioners the book integrates sustainability into each chapter as a core element of purchasing and supply chain management.
