Grant: Canada Research Chairs
University of British Columbia
$200,000.00
Operations Excellence and Supply Chain Management
EF 2020-21
Résumé
In his research program, Dr. Huh studies how to match supply and demand in supply chains and service systems. His approach is based on business analytics: he analyzes data to understand and describe systems and processes, builds models to predict how systems will perform, and investigates how they can be improved by proposing robust and easy-to-use policies that are simple yet effective in practice. Since one-tenth of Canadas GDP is tied to inventory, any improvement to supply chain efficiency can result in substantial savings and contribute to the competitiveness of Canadian as well as international firms and organizations.
