What Is Supply Chain Management (SCM)

Supply chain management is the management of the


flow of goods and services and includes all processes
that transform raw materials into final products. It
involves the active streamlining of a business's supply-
side activities to maximize customer value and gain a
competitive advantage in the marketplace.
KEY TAKEAWAYS

 By managing the supply chain, companies can cut excess costs


and deliver products to the consumer faster.
 Good supply chain management keeps companies out of the
headlines and away from expensive recalls and lawsuits. 
 The five most critical elements of SCM are developing a
strategy, sourcing raw materials, production, distribution, and
returns.
 A supply chain manager is tasked with controlling and
reducing costs and avoiding supply shortages.
How Supply Chain Management (SCM) Works

SCM attempts to centrally control or link the production,


shipment, and distribution of a product. By managing the
supply chain, companies can cut excess costs and deliver
products to the consumer faster. This is done by keeping
tighter control of internal inventories, internal production, 
distribution, sales, and the inventories of company vendors.
5 Parts of SCM

 The plan or strategy.


 The source (of raw materials or services)
 Manufacturing (focused on productivity and

efficiency).
 Delivery and logistics.
 The return system (for defective or unwanted

products).
Key Benefits of Supply Chain Management for the Retail Industry

 An efficient supply chain management helps reduce the lead


time, thereby making products readily – accessible to the
clients.
 With an efficient supply chain, merchants can provide a
diversity of product mix at reasonable prices to the customers.
 Effectively managing the supply chain solutions can help
conserve operational and transportation costs in the retailing
market.
 The supply chain can boost customer satisfaction, if the
quality is maintained throughout.
Why Is Same-Day Delivery Crucial to
Your Supply Chain?
To meet consumer demand, retailers tend to offer options
like same-day delivery, next-day delivery, and two-day
delivery to customers. Thanks to services like Amazon
Prime and Next Day Delivery by Walmart, today’s
consumers can place an order on their phone and expect
to receive it within 24 hours. A  worldwide survey
 revealed that 80% of consumers want their products
delivered the same day.
How to Optimize Your Supply Chain for
Same-Day Deliveries?

 Assess realistic demands.


 Utilize distributed order management (DOM) systems.
 Prepare an effective warehouse.
 Ensure regular audits of the supply chain.
