| Abstract: | Recognize distribution as a process that transcends departmental, corporate, and even national boundaries. It's often cheaper to close warehouse and centralize distribution, even if that means paying higher freight bills. Forging electronic links with customers and suppliers is helpful, but technology is the easy part. Changing ingrained behavior is harder. |
