As part of the integrative analyses, Goldsborough
(1992) presents a complete analysis on global logistics
management, establishing comparisons between
domestic and international logistics, and describing
basic factors of global information systems and Decision
Support Systems (DSS). Bartmess and Cerny
(1993) illustrate the fundamental differences between
location decisions based upon the traditional approach
that overemphasizes direct labor costs, and
location decisions based on the core competencies of
the company. By presenting similar ideas, MacCormack
et al. (1994) highlight the importance of making
international location decisions based on key
qualitative factors, such as adequate infrastructure
and managerial issues, instead of doing it based only
on cost factors, whose advantages are usually transitory.
The authors present a four-phase decision making
process for location decisions.
This literature illustrates the importance of cooperation
between managerial decision making and MIP
models. Managers are well suited to construct a list
of feasible alternatives based on the quantitative and
qualitative criteria described above. The MIP models
are then used to select the best of very good configurations
among these alternatives.
