This book presents a cohesive collection of cutting-edge research focused on advanced decision-support methodologies for complex and ambiguous operational contexts. This volume systematically assembles ten pivotal studies employing uncertain decision-making, multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA), and tailored optimization models to address substantive challenges in supply chain management, sustainable operations, and strategic planning.The contributions span a rigorous methodological spectrum, including fuzzy PDCA cycles for green performance evaluation, hybrid MCDM frameworks for lean tool selection, and robust optimization for resilient network design. Applications are drawn from critical domains such as healthcare logistics during epidemic response, sustainable supply chain configuration, and large-scale project trade-off analysis under resource constraints. Each chapter demonstrates the translation of theoretical computational models into applied solutions for decision-making under volatility, incomplete information, and multi-objective pressures.This volume will serve as a significant reference for academics and graduate researchers in management science, operations research, and industrial engineering. It provides a structured examination of how contemporary soft computing and operational research techniques can be leveraged to enhance analytical rigor and strategic outcomes in the face of pervasive environmental uncertainty.The chapters in this book were published in International Journal of Management Science and Engineering Management.

The post-Cold War era was widely associated with the Washington Consensus, which promoted economic efficiency, specialization, and trade liberalization as pathways to growth and social welfare. Globalization facilitated the rise of geographically dispersed production networks, known as global value chains (GVCs). For decades, firms benefited from offshoring by exploiting labour cost differentials, accessing cheaper resources, and entering new markets. However, since 2010, political and societal shifts have driven a collective reconfiguration of GVCs. Today, manufacturing systems are being reshaped by three major forces: digital transformation, climate change, and geopolitical tensions.This volume focuses on the latter - geopolitical disruptions - and examines their impact on corporate strategies related to trade and foreign direct investment. Firms increasingly respond by relocating operations, either through reshoring to the home country or through nearshoring to adjacent regions. The study investigates the drivers behind these decisions, comparing current reshoring patterns with previous disruptions, such as those during the COVID-19 pandemic. It also evaluates the role of policy frameworks in enabling relocation and considers how these may evolve. While the analysis centres on the European Union, it offers a global perspective on geopolitical risks. The book serves as a key resource for academics, practitioners, and policymakers seeking to understand international business and investment decisions.

Many organizations around the world attempt to emulate the Toyota Production System (TPS) by borrowing techniques to increase performance, but the results they achieve are short-lived. They often fall short of creating the organizational culture needed for their workforce to support and build upon the success of Toyota. Moreover, there has been no comprehensive interpretation nor documentation of how Taiichi Ohno fostered Toyota's own leadership culture from the very start. Until now. This knowledge of the missing pieces from the Toyota Production System is needed to truly grasp The Ohno Method®. One must understand the importance of developing people's untapped potential and skills as a strategic advantage. This book provides that knowledge and details crucial lost aspects of the TPS. Unknown to most, when Taiichi Ohno resigned from Toyota in 1979, he declared to his trusted disciple, "The Toyota Production System is still incomplete. It must evolve from now on to be perfected." He then went on to devote the next 10 years, until his death, to getting closer to the vision of Just-In-Time through his unique applications of the "Respect for People" principle. The authors are fully endorsed to communicate this story as they have been closely following the footsteps of Taiichi Ohno in Japan and have been a part of the development of The Ohno Method® beyond TPS and Toyota for the past 30 years based on Ohno's vision. In addition, they have successfully applied The Ohno Method® to maximize results across various industries around the world, adapting to the needs of modern businesses with the endorsement from Ohno's protégé and their mentor, Hitoshi Yamada.
