Testimonials

"I have reviewed the above mentioned text [A Framework for Supply Chains: Logistics Operations in the Asia-Pacific Region by Oakden] and it is an exceptional piece of work (fantastic). The entire book is well researched, presented in a user friendly manner and I believe fits perfectly into our program."

David Thoars Teacher, Tasmania Polytechnic

“We would recommend this book to the serious students and trainers wanting to learn and apply Management and Logistical Techniques to Supply Chains environments in our region.”

Daniel Nand & Anthony Attard Teachers, Kangan Institute

"I like the fact that it is a localised version – after seeing all the materials on transport or logistics from the USA. The questions at the conclusion of each chapter are well-written and require thought on the part of participants in discussions. Also nice that they are divided between operational/planning/managerial – nice touch! This makes the discussion questions much more useful than in several other text books I've looked at recently."

Dr Lincoln Wood Senior Lecturer, Curtin University
