A supply chain is a systematic procedure that involves businesses, people, tasks, and resources to move goods from a supplier to a buyer or end user. Supply chain management (SCM) controls all supply chain activities to maximize customer value, maintain a competitive advantage, and manage the flow of goods from one point to another. To address the supply chain, raw materials must be acquired, and finished products must be stored before being shipped to the intended customers. Any business needs SCM to succeed, no matter how big or small. It can give it a competitive edge by lowering the risks associated with buying raw materials and making sales of goods or services.
Tools used by
Group 50 for supply chain management
The supply chain consultants at Group50 consultancy have managed supply chains ranging in size from $20 million to $4 billion and employ the same methodologies for evaluating their effectiveness. Companies must be proficient in the design of goods and services, the definition of those goods and services, forecasting, acquiring materials and resources, and selling and delivering those goods and services to customers. And they must continue to do it at a lower cost every year. Using Group50's Supply Chain Hierarchy of Needs as a supply chain strategic planning framework, supply chain optimization can be accomplished. Optimization occurs when all components work together to increase profits, reduce working capital, and shorten lead times.
