During the years, I have accumulated an extensive operational strategy reference library, ranging from manufacturing, government and service issues. This is an excellent book for more comprehensive learning of the discipline. Besides the holistic view of the subject, I think it has many interesting points related to the content of operational strategy. This books focus main thesis is the need of sound reconciliation between market requirements and the operational resources of the organization. Great diagrams and charts add tremendous value to the writing. The book could be improved for teaching purposes with the inclusion of cases.
