520 _a"With increased globalization, off-shoring, and outsourcing, global supply chain management is becoming an important issue for many businesses. Global supply chain management shares some of the main concerns of traditional supply chain management, such as lowering the costs of procurement and decreasing the risks related to purchasing activities.
