Lecture Overview

What Is A Supply Chain


The system of suppliers, manufacturers, transportation,
distributors, and vendors that exists to transform raw
materials to final products and supply those products
to customers.
That portion of the supply chain which comes after the
manufacturing process is sometimes known as the
distribution network.

What Is the Goal of Supply Chain Management?


Supply chain management is concerned with the
efficient integration of suppliers, factories, warehouses
and stores so that merchandise is produced and
distributed:
In the right quantities
To the right locations
At the right time

In order to

Minimize total system cost


Satisfy customer service requirements

Cant Forecasting Help?


Forecasting is always wrong

End item forecasts are even more wrong

Process View of a Supply Chain


Cycle view: processes in a supply chain are divided into
a series of cycles, each performed at the interfaces
between two successive supply chain stages
Push/pull view: processes in a supply chain are divided
into two categories depending on whether they are
executed in response to a customer order (pull) or in
anticipation of a customer order (push)

Cycle View of Supply Chains


Customer-retailer
Cycle view clearly
defines processes
involved and the
owners of each
process. Specifies
the roles and
responsibilities of
each member and the
desired outcome of
each process.

Customer Order Cycle

Retailer-distributor
Replenishment Cycle

Distributor-manufacturer
Manufacturing Cycle

Manufacturer-supplier
Procurement Cycle

Push/Pull View of Supply Chains


Procurement,
Manufacturing and
Replenishment cycles

PUSH PROCESSES
Push: execution is initiated in anticipation of
customer orders (speculative)

Customer Order
Cycle

PULL PROCESSES
Pull: execution is initiated in
response to a customer order
(reactive)

Drivers of Supply Chain Performance


Facilities
places where inventory is stored, assembled, or fabricated
production sites and storage sites

Inventory
raw materials, WIP, finished goods within a supply chain
inventory policies

Transportation
moving inventory from point to point in a supply chain
combinations of transportation modes and routes

Information
data and analysis regarding inventory, transportation, facilities throughout
the supply chain
potentially the biggest driver of supply chain performance
