<br/><br/> Supply chain management (SCM) strives for creating competitive advantage and value for customers by integrating business processes from end users through original suppliers. &#xA0;However, the question of how SCM influences the value of a firm is not fully answered. Various conceptual frameworks that explain the coherence of SCM and company value, comprehended as value-based SCM, are well accepted in scientific research, but quantitative approaches to value-based SCM are found rather seldom. The book contributes to this research gap by proposing quantitative models that allow for assessing influences of SCM on the value of a firm. Opposed to existing models that limit the observation to chosen facets of SCM or selected value drivers, this holistic approach is adequate to&#xA0;&#x2022; reflect configurational and operational aspects of SCM,&#xA0; &#x2022; cover all phases of the product life cycle, &#x2022; financially compare value impacts of profitability-related and asset-related value drivers, and &#x2022; assess influences of dynamics and uncertainties on company value.
