The document discusses push and pull strategies in supply chain management. It describes push strategies as relying on production decisions based on forecasts, while pull strategies are demand-driven based on customer orders. A push-pull hybrid combines the advantages of both by using forecasts for early supply chain stages and customer demand for later stages. The bullwhip effect and benefits of postponement are also covered. Finally, factors for determining the optimal push-pull boundary based on demand uncertainty and economies of scale are presented.

Technology helps in allieviating the concerns of a distribution manager. One of the key concerns of the distribution manager includes the fate of a consignment after it has left the base. Some of the prominent technologies that can be used in logistics include Global Positioning System (GPS), Swipe Cards, Bar Codes, Radio Frequency Identification. Of these technologies RFID holds a great potential in transforming logistics management for Indian corporate.

study about the supply chain, flexibility and bullwhip effect on scm in small...sushil Choudhary
The purpose of this work is to study, bullwhip effect on supply chain management and discuss the
develop a conceptual model on the potential barriers in the implementation of supply chain flexibility in small-scale
industries. The model suggests that supply chain flexibility can be researched using a three-tier approach:
identification of risks, identification of potential barriers emerging from these risks, identification of bridges to these
barriers. The proposed is based on the view of problems of small-scale industries as well as the limited research on
supply chain flexibility. The studies indicated that the three main barriers to flexibility in supply chains are
improper integration between systems, Supply Chain Function cost and quickening pace of product innovation.
Some ways to overcome these barriers and act as bridges are also summarized. The field of study of supply chain
flexibility presents numerous options for fresh research work.
Supply Chain Management is already a common phenomenon to improve efficiency in selling. This presentation emphasizes the systematic management of such process which is well advanced today.

Supply Chain for Management Consultants & Business AnalystsAsen Gyczew
This presentation will help you drastically improve your knowledge and skills in optimizing supply chain of any company through a series of practical cases. It is designed for people who want to become management consultants, business analysts or have to run and optimize supply chai on daily bases. In the course you will learn 3 things:
1. How to understand supply chain activities
2. How to optimize supply chain in order to get more things done, cheaper at higher quality with less resources
3. Where to look for savings and improvements, how to calculate potential savings in Excel and implement them
The course is based on my 14 years of experience as a consultant in top consulting companies and as a Board Member responsible for strategy, improvement and turn-arounds in biggest companies from Retail, FMCG, SMG, B2B sector that I worked for. On many occasions I had to optimize the whole supply chain side of the businesses I was responsible for. On the basis of what you will find in this course I have trained over 100 consultants, business analysts and managers who now are Supply Chain Directors, Operational Directors, COO, Investment Directors, Directors in Consulting Companies, Board Members etc.

Locating the Boundaries of a Push or Pull strategy
3. What are the advantages of push systems?
What are the advantages of pull systems?
Is there a system that has the advantages of
both systems?
4. Production decisions are based on long-term
forecasts;
Ordering decisions are based on inventory forecasts;
What are the problems with push strategies?
◦ Inability to meet changing demand patterns
◦ Obsolescence
◦ The bullwhip effect:
Excessive inventory
Excessive production variability
Poor service levels
8. Production is demand driven
◦ Production and distribution coordinated with true
customer demand
◦ Firms respond to specific orders
Pull Strategies result in:
◦ Decreased inventory levels at retailers and
manufacturers
◦ Decreased system variability
◦ Better response to changing markets
But:
◦ Harder to leverage economies of scale
◦ Doesn’t work in all cases
9. Push-Pull Boundary

A shift from a Push System...
◦ Production decisions are based on forecast
…to a Push-Pull System
10. ◦ Initial portion of the supply chain is replenished
based on long-term forecasts
For example, parts inventory may be
replenished based on forecasts
◦ Final supply chain stages based on actual
customer demand.
For example, assembly may based on actual
orders.
11. Build to Stock
◦ Forecast demand
◦ Buys components
◦ Assembles computers
◦ Observes demand and
meets demand if
possible.
A traditional push
system
Build to order
◦ Forecast demand
◦ Buys components
◦ Observes demand
◦ Assembles computers
◦ Meets demand
A push-pull system
12. The push-pull system takes advantage of the
rules of forecasting:
◦ Forecasts are always wrong
◦ The longer the forecast horizon the worst is
the forecast
◦ Aggregate forecasts are more accurate
13. Risk pooling is an important concept in supply
chain management. Risk pooling suggests that
demand variability is reduced if one aggregates
demand across locations because as demand is
aggregated across different locations, it becomes
more likely that high demand from one customer
will be offset by low demand from another. This
reduction in variability allows a decrease in safety
stock and therefore reduces average inventory.
14. Delayed differentiation or Postponement is a
concept in supply chain management where the
manufacturing process starts by making a
generic or family product that is later
differentiated into a specific end-product. This is
a widely used method, especially in industries
with high demand uncertainty, and can be
effectively used to address the final demand
even if forecasts cannot be improved.
15. Benetton and their knitted
sweaters are initially all white,
and then dyed into different
colors only when the
season/customer color
preference/demand is known.
It is usually necessary to
redesign the product
specifically for delayed
differentiation, and re-
sequence to modify the order
of production manufacturing
steps.
17. Higher demand uncertainty suggests push
Higher importance of economies of scale suggests
push
High uncertainty/ EOS (End of stock) that is not
important such as the computer industry implies
pull
Low uncertainty/ EOS important such as groceries
implies push
◦ Demand is stable
◦ Transportation cost reduction is critical
◦ Pull would not be appropriate here.
18. Low uncertainty but low
value of economies of scale
(high volume books and cd’s)
◦ Either push strategies or
push/pull strategies might
be most appropriate
High uncertainty and high
value of economies of scale
◦ For example, the furniture
industry
◦ How can production be pull
but delivery push?
◦ Is this a “pull-push”
system?

20. The push section:
◦ Uncertainty is relatively low
◦ Economies of scale important
◦ Long lead times
◦ Complex supply chain structures:
Thus
◦ Management based on forecasts is appropriate
◦ Focus is on cost minimization
◦ Achieved by effective resource utilization – supply
chain optimization
21. The push section requires:
◦ Supply chain planning
◦ Long term strategies
The pull section requires:
◦ Order fulfillment processes
◦ Customer relationship
management
Buffer inventory at the boundaries:
◦ The output of the tactical planning
process
◦ The input to the order fulfillment
process.
