Supply chain management optimizes and designs key business processes to increase overall performance by fully integrating customers, suppliers, and partners into seamless processes. These processes can overcome internal and external barriers by designing synchronized processes to optimize information, material, and financial flows. Supply chain management focuses on optimizing production planning, procurement, distribution to customers, product development, and other relevant processes. The most competitive supply chains in the future will be those that optimize these end-to-end processes rather than individual companies working alone.
