The role of supply chain management (SCM) in most businesses cannot be overstated. It is vital to the success of a business and to the satisfaction of its customers. In today’s competitive business environment, SCM has become increasingly imperative. A SCM strategy is necessary for firms to compete at the supply chain (SC) level. In order to boost SC performance, it is necessary to integrate and coordinate strategies throughout the chain. Customers receive products and services from retailers, manufacturers, and suppliers. This mechanism is intended solely to enhance the value of their products, upstream and downstream, by facilitating the proper flow of information and resources. Business integration is critical for this fast-paced business to ensure a smooth flow of information within its physical network. In order to achieve bottom-line results, business integration will facilitate coordination between different parties. Companies realize that competition today takes place between SC networks rather than among individual firms. SCM requires ef fective management of all the connected pieces. The purpose of this book is to study, understand, and interpret the evolution of SCM. It covers SC strategy, design, planning, controlling, management, and more, covering the holistic and interconnected nature of SCM. By examining how SCs are evolving and looking ahead to future developments, the text provides the rationale behind why SCM is critical. Management of SCs is one of the most important aspects of running a business. Ordinary consumers rarely experience its effects since they are often outside the immediate community (in research and industry). If you recall the times when a particular garment or grocery item was not available, how many times you got a great ‘deal’ at the end of the season, or when gas prices spiked due to shortages, you have likely encountered these situations. Have you ever experienced a situation where your e-commerce site promised availability but later shipped the wrong product, or your customized product (such as a desktop computer or kitchen cabinet) was delayed substantially? Many of the experiences listed above are directly related to the practices firms follow in their SCs. As opposed to business-to-consumer transactions, SC practices have an immediate impact on business-to-business transactions. The book discusses contemporary topics such as sustainability, SC vulnerabilities, and reverse logistics, focusing on operations management. It is written specifically for students and scholars with a clear writing style, cutting-edge content, and effective pedagogy to meet their needs in terms of knowledge and to provide them with a broad understanding of the subject matter.
