, Chapter 1 - Introduction
1. Logistics and SCM
Supply Chain Management
= the management, across and within a network of upstream and downstream
organisations, of both relationships and flows of materials, information and resources.
=> the purposes of SCM are to create value, enhance efficiency, and satisfy customers.
SCM focuses on
- physical flows of materials
- flows of information that inform the sc
- resources that help the sc to operate effectively
We view SCM from an end-to-end perspective. Downstream goes from supplier to customer
while upstream is the reverse.
[synonyms : farm to fork, sketch to store, dust to rust]
There are two different supply chain views.
Push view : supply view
ex. buying a car from the lot
Pull view : demand view
ex. buying a customized car
