Supply Chain Management

Supply chain management considers the economic functions of the entire value chain of a product or service, not just those functions limited to a specific firm. It is increasingly important to analyze the information-flow requirements between stages of the chain. Starting with the needs of its customers, a company must analyze how its supply chain is enabling or hindering its efforts to meet those needs.

Firms must identify high-value opportunities for improvement through partnership, value-managed relationships or vertical integration. The Internet has rapidly enabled firms to share information at very low cost, creating very large financial opportunities for supply-chain innovation, as well as cost reduction.
