The authors illustrate how the framework can be used with the case of Acrilan, an acrylic fiber manufacturer. As the emerging economies begin to mature, and the supply and demand points in a supply chain begin to shift, companies need to re-optimize the de­ sign of their global supply chain, so as to make the best use of their global resources. This is the subject of "Globalization and Emerging Markets: The Challenge of Continuous Global Network Optimization," by Peter Koudal and Douglas A. Engel.

David Pyke provides us with the approach to tackle this deci­ sion, and share with us his personal experience in helping companies to make such decisions, in his chapter titled "Shanghai or Charlotte? The Decision to Outsource to China and Other Low Cost Countries.…
