  • Flowcasting the Retail Supply Chain
    title 4/6/06 9:58 AM Page 1 "Never forecast what you can calculate." Dr. Joseph Orlicky "When it comes to Retail Supply Chain Management, people are beginning to understand that Demand Planning should start at store level. What we must now agree upon is that Demand Planning should also end at store level. This book is dedicated to that objective." André Martin, Mike Doherty and Jeff Harrop title 4/6/06 9:58 AM Page 2 Advance Praise for Flowcasting the Retail Supply Chain "Very often we read about Supply Chain principles such as Visibility, Collaboration, Flexibility, and Integration. We understand the concepts, agree with the principles, and look for ways to turn concept into reality. Flowcasting brings these prin- ciples to life. Its focus on simplifying Forecasting, combined with the tremendous versatility of time phased planning is both leading edge and exe- cutable today. Andre, Mike, and Jeff have done a great job of demonstrating the practical application ofFlowcasting concepts with everyday Retail challenges. Flowcasting is a great read, and worthy of serious consideration." Geoff Frodsham - Senior Vice President, Canadian Logistics Loblaw Companies Limited title 4/6/06 9:58 AM Page 3 "André Martin has had a dream and vision to inte- grate end-to-end the "extended supply chain" all the way down to the store shelf. The future is now here and what was previously unmanageable in real life is now possible - driving the factory floor from the store shelf. Leveraging collaborative business processes along with the strength of the time series DRP orders forecasting methodology has positioned his dream into the industry's emerging best practice."

We are inspired by the bravery of our soldiers at Normandy and moved by the words of John McCrae’s "In Flanders Fields." We are amazed at the vision of Louis-Joseph Papineau and Sir Wilfrid Laurier. We are enchanted by the paintings of Emily Carr and the writings of Lucy Maud Montgomery. We look back in awe at the wisdom of Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir George-Étienne Cartier. We are moved to tears of joy by the humour of Stephen Leacock and tears of gratitude for the courage of Tecumseh. We hold in high regard the determination of Emily Murphy and Rev. Josiah Henson to overcome obstacles which stood in the way of their dreams. We give thanks for the work of the Victorian Order of Nurses and those who organ- ized the Underground Railroad. We think of those who suffered and died at Grosse Île in the dream of reaching a new home.

  • The Shelf Space and Strategic Placement of Healthy and Discretionary Foods in Urban, Urban-Fringe and Rural/ Non-Metropolitan Australian Supermarkets
    Public Health Nutrition: 21(3), 593–600 doi:10.1017/S1368980017003019 The shelf space and strategic placement of healthy and discretionary foods in urban, urban-fringe and rural/ non-metropolitan Australian supermarkets Adrian J Cameron* Global Obesity Centre, Deakin University, 221 Burwood Highway, Burwood, VIC 3125, Australia Submitted 27 September 2016: Final revision received 4 September 2017: Accepted 6 September 2017: First published online 16 November 2017 Abstract Objective: Supermarkets are a key influence on eating behaviours, but it is unknown if the promotion of food within stores varies on a geographic gradient from urban, to urban-fringe and non-metropolitan areas. The present study aimed to assess the shelf space and strategic placement of healthy and discretionary foods in each of urban, urban-fringe and non-metropolitan Australian supermarkets. Design/Setting: In-store audits were conducted in stores from one of the two major Australian supermarket chains in urban (n 19), urban-fringe (n 20) and non-metropolitan (n 26) areas of Victoria. These audits examined selected food items (crisps/chips, chocolate, confectionery, soft drinks/sodas, fruits and vegetables) and measured the shelf space and the proportion of end-of-aisle and cash register displays containing these products. Store size was measured as the sum of aisle length. Differences in the supermarket food environment with respect to location were assessed, before and after adjustment for neighbourhood socio-economic position. Results: The strategic placement of discretionary foods was commonly observed in all supermarkets. Adjusting for store size (larger in urban-fringe and rural areas), urban stores had greater shelf space devoted to fruits and vegetables, and less checkouts with soft drinks, than urban-fringe and rural/non-metropolitan areas.

  • Parks Canada Manuscript Report Series
    Parks Canada Manuscript Report Series by C.J. TAYLOR~ The Manuscript Report Series (MRS) is a collection of about 350 titles (to date) on a variety of Canadian historical subjects. Written reports are a major product of the more than 100 historians, archaeologists and contract re- searchers who work for the five regional offices of Parks Canada and for Research division of its National Historic Parks and Sites Branch in Ottawa and many of these reports end up in the MRS. The series is already large enough to warrant the attention of those interested in Canadian history yet it is not well known beyond the realm of Parks Canada. This situation is partly due to the fact that the series is not a publication and is therefore not advertised or widely distributed and partly because most of the titles are specialised research studies relating directly to historic site. Still, there is an abundance of material that could have a wider use even though some of these reports have been, or will be, published. And it is this wider use of the MRS as an unpublished gov- ernment document that is of particular concern to the archivist. The purpose of the MRS is to disseminate historic sites research to Parks Canada staff. Originally, manuscript reports written by staff historians and archaeologists were kept on file and photocopies made for those within the or- ganization who required that particular research. Before the regionalization of Parks Canada, most historical and archaeological research was done by National Historic Parks and Sites Branch in Ottawa which by the mid-1960s had a large staff assigned to various projects concerned with sites across the ~ountry.~Each manuscript was given to the Research Division records clerk who assigned it a number and placed it on file.
