The document provides an overview of the supply chain management process. It defines a supply chain as a network of facilities and distribution options that procure materials, transform materials into products, and distribute finished products to customers. It then outlines the overall process flow, which includes inbound logistics to receive raw materials from suppliers, manufacturing to transform materials into products, and outbound logistics where distributors take finished goods from manufacturers for distribution to retailers. Metrics related to supplier compliance, inventory, production, transportation and more are presented for understanding the supply chain management process.

2. What is Supply Chain?
“A supply chain is network of facilities and distribution
options that perform the function of procurement of
material, transformation of these materials into intermediate
and finished products, and distribution of these finished
products to customers.”

4. Direct suppliers to OEMs are called Tier 1 suppliers. Let’s assume that “Parts manufacturer B”
produces screws and delivers products to “Component manufacturer” and directly to an OEM.
This means that “Parts manufacturer B” works both at the Tier 3 and at the Tier 1 level. Tier 3
suppliers could be called subcontractors to the Tier 2 level. Whenever such a subcontractor also
delivers directly to an OEM, it is regarded as a Tier 1 company for such business transactions.
