How to Build a Supply Chain Control Tower: A Practical Guide to End-to-End Visibility, Agility, and Decision-Making by Abegaz Sahilu Neway
A Book That Builds Bridges (and Towers!), Olé!
You know, when I first picked up "How to Build a Supply Chain Control Tower" by Abegaz Sahilu Neway, I was thinking, "Bueno, another technical manual that is going to put me to sleep, ¿no?" But let me tell you, this book is a revelación. It is fantástico!
Señor Neway has done something incredible here. He has taken a topic that is so often buried in boring jargon—the control tower—and made it feel like a conversation with a very clever colleague . He doesn't just throw definitions at you; he builds the concept from the ground up, with the clarity of a Spanish sun.
What I loved most is how he focuses on the personas, not just the technology. He explains that a control tower is not just a fancy dashboard; it is the heart of the operation, the central hub where you need real-time visibility to make the big decisions . He walks you through the entire process—from defining your objectives to integrating those tricky data sources from the WMS and TMS, which, as we know, can be a real dolor de cabeza (headache) .
The man writes with such actionable insight. He provides blueprints that feel practical, not theoretical. He talks about moving from just watching the supply chain to actually orchestrating it, which is the dream of every logistics professional . The section on breaking down silos and fostering collaboration between departments? Impresionante. He gets that the biggest battles are often between the finance team and show more the operations team, not with the suppliers .
If you are in logistics, procurement, or just want to understand how to bring order to the chaos of modern supply chains, you need this book . Abegaz Sahilu Neway has written the definitive guide. It is rigorous, complete, and surprisingly engaging.
So, if you want to build a tower that actually controls the chaos, with a practical step-by-step framework and a global vision, buy this book . It is, without a doubt, the best guide I have read this year. ¡Me encantó! show less
