Resources

Throughout this website you will find resources to help you succeed in Operations and Supply Chain Management university courses that take place everyday in colleges all over the world.

The outlines were created in Microsoft PowerPoint, and each slide aligns with the lecture recording videos provided on Professor Bolton's Operations and Supply Chain Management University YouTube channel.
