A few slides on stuff that needs to be in place to do"sustainability" in a a supply chain system. #sustainabilityframework

1. ”Sustainability”
Some architectural basics

There is nothing new in this slide
deck

3. ECSCIA, European Centre of Supply Chain Information

A quick check at Wikipedia tells me
that ”sustainability” has three
dimensions: an environmental, a
social and an economic……
Social
Environmental Economic

4. ECSCIA, European Centre of Supply Chain Information
Architecture
…..and that is cool…
but what is ”sustainability” from a
supply chain information architecture
(”SCIA”) perspective?
Social
Environmental Economic

5. ECSCIA, European Centre of Supply Chain Information

..My view….

6. ECSCIA, European Centre of Supply Chain Information

Routes Modes of transport
Product structures,
”Bill of material”
Locations
Value chains
Compound &
substance
structures
Operations
Sustainability
weight/cost
measures
Dimensions
Conditions

Value chains
Taking a SCIA perspective means having
your value chains modelled in a way that
allows for using them in structured
information processing.
”To know where things come from,
where they are headed and what
happens in between in a formalised
manner.”

8. ECSCIA, European Centre of Supply Chain Information
Architecture
Locations
Taking a SCIA perspective means
having massive and accurate
information on where ”where”
is.

9. ECSCIA, European Centre of Supply Chain Information
Architecture
Routes
Taking a SCIA perspective means defining routes between
location in a formal way.

10. ECSCIA, European Centre of Supply Chain Information
Architecture
Modes of transport
Taking a SCIA perspective means defining modes of transport
in a formal way.

11. ECSCIA, European Centre of Supply Chain Information
Architecture
Conditions
Taking a SCIA perspective means managing conditions and
the impact of those conditions in a formal way.

12. ECSCIA, European Centre of Supply Chain Information
Architecture
Product structures,
”Bill of material”
Taking a SCIA perspective means
having accurate, structured
product data

13. ECSCIA, European Centre of Supply Chain Information
Architecture
Compound &
substance
structures
Taking a SCIA perspective means having accurate,
structured compound and substance data.

14. ECSCIA, European Centre of Supply Chain Information
Architecture
Operations
Need to know ”who” does ”what”, ”how” with the product.
Taking a SCIA perspective means having accurate,
structured production process data.

15. ECSCIA, European Centre of Supply Chain Information
Architecture
Dimensions
Space usage makes a difference.
Taking a SCIA perspective means having accurate,
structured dimension data.

16. ECSCIA, European Centre of Supply Chain Information
Architecture
Sustainability
weight/cost
measures
Need to be able to measure it.
Taking a SCIA perspective means having accurate, structured
sustainability weight/cost data. What is the weight/cost of a
supply chain choice relative another choice?

17. ECSCIA, European Centre of Supply Chain Information
Architecture
It´s not a ”master data” challenge.
It´s a ”getting you act together” challenge
