Awards/获奖情况：This book is a huge leap forward in professionalizing the field. Practice of good supply chain management can only make delivering relief more effective.

Written by expert authors in their field, this book offers a distinct perspective on how the problem-solving capacity of supply chain management principles can help humanitarian organisations and aid workers to operate under conditions that are much more complex, unpredictable and resource-demanding than we find in conventional ’commercial’ supply chains. This is well-structured and comprehensive piece of work that guides the reader through well-designed and -executed solutions, and supported by examples from various parts of the world. Cutting across topics such as supply chain strategy, procurement, warehousing, transportation, risk and sustainability combined with generic skills of e.g. decision making and performance measurement, the book paves the way for personal development of aid workers and their humanitarian organisations.--Arni Halldorsson, Professor, Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden
