What is a Supply Chain?
A supply chain consists of the flow of products and services from:
O Raw materials manufacturersO Component and intermediate manufacturersO Final product manufacturersO Wholesalers and distributors andO Retailers
Connected by transportation and storage activities, andIntegrated through information, planning, and integration activities Many large firms are moving away from in-house Vertically Integrated structures to Supply Chain Management
VERTICALLY
INTEGRATED FIRM
A FIRM WHOSE
BUSINESS BOUNDARIES INCLUDE ONE-TIME SUPPLIERS AND/ OR
CUSTOMERS.

Importance of Supply Chain Management
Firms have discovered value-enhancing and long term benefits
Who benefits most? Firms with: O Large inventoriesO Large number of suppliersO Complex productsO Customers with large purchasing budgets
How do they benefit?O Lower purchasing and inventory costsO Improved qualityO Higher levels of customer service
15
Importance of Supply Chain Management (continued)
Firms using Supply Chain Management:
1. Start with key suppliers2. Move on to other suppliers,
customers, and shippers3. Integrate second tier suppliers and
customers (second tier refers to the customer’s customers and the supplier’s suppliers)
Importance of Supply Chain Management (continued)
Cost savings and better coordination of resources are reasons to employ Supply Chain Management
O Reduced Bullwhip Effect - the magnified reduction of safety stock costs based on coordinated planning and sharing of information
O Collaborative planning, forecasting, and replenishment activities reduce the Bullwhip Effect and lead to better customer service, lower inventory costs, improved quality, reduced cycle time, better production methods, and other benefits.

Bullwhip Effect
A TERM REFERRING TO INEFFECTIVE
COMMUNICATION BETWEEN BUYERS AND
SUPPLIERS AND INFREQUENT DELIVERY OF
MATERIALS, COMBINED WITH PRODUCTION BASED ON POOR FORECASTS ALONG A SUPPLY CHAIN
THAT RESULTS IN EITHER TOO LITTLE OR TOO MUCH INVENTORY AT
VARIOUS POINTS OF STORAGE AND
CONSUMPTION. SIMPLY, IT CAUSES AN IMPLIFICATION OF THE VARIATION IN THE DEMAND PATTERN ALONG
THE SUPPLY CAHIN.

The Foundations of Supply Chain Management
SupplySupply base rationalization, supplier alliances, SRM, global sourcing, ethics and sustainability
OperationsDemand management, CPFR, MRP, ERP, `inventory visibility, lean systems, Six Sigma quality systems
Logistics
Logistics management, customer relationship management, network design, RFID, global supply chains, sustainability, service response logistics
Integration Risk and security management, performance measurement, green supply chains

The Foundations of Supply Chain Management (continued)
Supply Elements:O Supplier management - improve
performance through O Supplier evaluation (determining supplier
capabilities)O Supplier certification (third party or internal
certification to assure product quality and service requirements)
Supply Elements
SCM is like a runner handing off a baton to the next in the line.
It’s a challenge, having a process to work with supplier as partners to achieve the goal of
a smooth hand-off.
Supply Elements (Cont.)
Strategic partnerships - successful and trusting relationships with top-performing suppliers
The company is working very closely with the supply base to pick the right few, and then get much deeper within the relationship with those critical few.
Supply Elements (Cont.)
O Ethics and sustainability – recognizing suppliers’ impact on reputation and carbon footprint.

Operation Elements
O Demand management - match demand to available capacity
O Linking buyers & suppliers via MRP and ERP systems
O Use lean systems to improve the flow of materials to reduce inventory levels
O Employ Six Sigma to improve quality compliance among suppliers
24
Logistic Elements
O Transportation management - tradeoff decisions between cost & timing of delivery / customer service via trucks, rail, water & air
O Customer relationship management - strategies to ensure deliveries, resolve complaints, improve communications, & determine service requirements
O Network design - creating distribution networks based on tradeoff decisions between cost & sophistication of distribution system
Integration Elements
O Supply Chain Process Integration - when supply chain participants work for common goals. Requires intra-firm functional integration. Based on efforts to change attitudes & adversarial relationships
O Supply Chain Performance Measurement - Crucial for firms to know if procedures are working
Current Trends in Supply Chain Management
Expanding the Supply ChainO U.S. firms are expanding partnerships
and building facilities in foreign marketsORight shoring for maximum flexibility
and minimum costO The expansion involves:
OBreadth - foreign manufacturing, office & retail sites, foreign suppliers & customers
ODepth - second and third tier suppliers & customers
Current Trends in Supply Chain Management (continued)
Increasing Supply Chain ResponsivenessO Firms will increasingly need to be more flexible
and responsive to customer needs O Supply chains will need to benchmark industry
performance and meet and improve on a continuous basis
O Responsiveness improvement will come from more effective and faster product & service delivery systems
28
Current Trends in Supply Chain Management (continued)
The GREENING of Supply Chains – Producing, packaging, moving,
storing, delivering and other supply chain activities can be harmful to the environment
O Supply chains will work harder to reduce environmental degradation
O Large majority (75%) of U.S. consumers influenced by a firm’s environmental friendliness reputation
O Recycling and conservation are a growing alternative in response to high cost of natural resources
Case Study- Nestle & Chili
Nestle (Malaysia) Berhad has ensured a reliable supply of good quality chilies for the manufacture of its MAGGI chili sauce, while helping to boost the income levels of local farmers through a supplier capacity building initiative in Bukit Awang, Kelantan. The chili farming programme began in 1995 and provides hard-core poor farmers with assistance from Nestle agronomists to produce profitable and environment friendly agricultural raw materials that can be produced into safe and quality finished food products. The programme started with just four farmers yielding 16 tones of chilies on 4 acres of land. The number of participants has since increased in 2006 to 600 farmers, producing approximately 800 metric tones of chilies on 300 acres of land, which are then purchased by Nestle at a pre-determined price based on production cost plus profit principle (CR Guide, 2008).

Current Trends in Supply Chain Management (continued)
Reducing Supply Chain Costs
OCost reduction achieved through:O Reduced purchasing costsO Reducing wasteO Reducing excess inventory, andO Reducing non-value added activities
OContinuous Improvement throughO Benchmarking - improve over competitors’
performanceO Trial & errorO Increased knowledge of supply chain processes
