The original idea for this book emerged in 2002: four years ago, as we write this
page. It began with Paul Cousins and Richard Lamming discussing the lack of a
structured strategically focused text for teaching supply management. Instead of
bemoaning it, we decided to write the text ourselves. Having embarked on the
exercise we realised why such a text did not exist! The subject area is vast, wide
ranging and still developing. During the first few years of the project, Richard took
up the Directorship of the School of Management at the University of Southampton
and Paul spent time working in Melbourne, Australia, at Queen’s University Belfast
and eventually settled at Manchester Business School, The .
In 2005 we decided that this book would not be completed without further authors.
It was at this point that we recruited Dr Benn Lawson (Queen’s University Belfast)
and Dr Brian Squire (Manchester Business School) to help with the writing. This
proved to be an excellent choice and both Benn and Brian have worked extremely
hard to make the book into what it is today.
