When faced with managing inventory in a dangerous world of disasters and terrorism, this is an essential guide. This book is an indispensable tool for disaster and terrorism mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery. The expanded 3rd edition includes explanations of the significant federal legislature and programs enacted since September 11, 2001 to enhance the security of the United States involving the food supply, container security, advanced cargo information, secure trade, and a business-government customs-trade partnership against terrorism. It boosts homeland security by training individuals to do their jobs well, and thus, prevent breaches of security and catastrophes as cargo is either moved or stored. Drawing upon his years of experience and using a friendly, easy-to-read style Michael Stroh simplifies complex topics and helps the reader to confidently handle the most difficult logistical challenges. In the aftermath of a disaster, trying to get the right supplies to the right place to help the right people can become a disaster.
