Major Theories in Evolution of OM Models applicable for OM HMMS Model (1960) Applicable to Broader planning level as compared to aggregate planning. Can be used for make or buy and supplier selection Not suitable for global networks and enterprise Theories in Evolution of OM Resource Based and Transaction Cost Theory Choice of Operations - Institutional, Configurational and Contingency Theory Relation between SCM Strategy and operations using Contingency Theory 9
