10. What is Supply Chain?
 It is a network of suppliers,
manufacturers, assemblers, supply
and delivery centers and logistics
installations that perform functions
such as material sourcing, processing
and shipment to buyers of those
materials of an intermediate or
finished product.
 It is also a lineup of companies that
market goods or services.

businesses streamline their supply chain processes and improve efficiency.
5. Collaboration:
 Collaboration between different members of the supply chain, such as suppliers,
distributors, and customers, can help businesses to identify and overcome challenges,
leading to improved customer service and increased competitiveness.

14. Key Functions of Supply Chain Management:
o Procurement: SCM involves sourcing and purchasing raw materials, food, beverages,
linens, furniture, equipment, and other supplies required for hotel and restaurant
operations. Efficient procurement practices help in obtaining high-quality products at
the best possible prices.
o Inventory Management: Managing inventory levels is critical in the hospitality industry
to prevent overstocking or under stocking of supplies. Proper inventory management
ensures that items are available when needed, reducing waste and storage costs.
o Supplier Selection and Relationship Management: Selecting reliable suppliers and
establishing strong relationships with them is vital. Good supplier relationships can
lead to better pricing, timely deliveries, and access to quality products.

15. Key Functions of Supply Chain Management:

sustainability. SCM can help the hospitality industry source sustainable products and
reduce waste through practices like recycling and energy-efficient operations.
o Demand Forecasting: Predicting customer demand for different products and services
is essential for proper inventory management. SCM uses data analysis and historical
trends to forecast demand accurately.
o Menu and Beverage Management: SCM can help restaurants and bars optimize their
menus and beverage lists by analyzing product popularity, costs, and profitability.

17. Key Functions of Supply Chain Management:

20.  Gain a conceptual appreciation of the business activities that drive supply chain
operations.
 Exercise a high-level understanding of activities involves in a supply chain planning
and sourcing.
 Identify the basic concepts of demand forecasting and inventory management.

21. Supply chain operations can be categorized into four main types, each representing a
distinct aspect of the supply chain management process:
PLAN
SOURCE
MAKE
DELIVER

22. PLAN: Categories of Supply Chain Operations
 The preparation phase is the beginning of the supply chain operation. We need to build a road or
map or approach to deal with how goods and services meet consumer’s requirement and needs.
 The planning phase applies to all activities required in the other categories to plan and
coordinate the operations.

23. A. Forecasting
 The demand prediction is the foundation of any business toward proper planning to
satisfy consumer demand. Predictions are made up of four primary factors to assess
the market conditions. They are the following variables:
1. Supply- this refers to the total demand for goods on the market
2. Demand- this refers to the amount of product available.
3. Product Characteristics- this refers to the product features that influence demand.
4. Competitive Environment- this refers to the actions of product suppliers in the market.

24. B. Aggregate Planning
 The next step is to establish an overall supply strategy to satisfy the demand for the
commodity, as demand prediction is established.
1. Use production capacity to meet demand
2. Use varying levels of total production capacity
3. Use inventory and work-in-progress inventory

25. C. Product Pricing Planning
 The use of prices can affect demand over time in businesses and whole supply chains.
It tends to increase sales or gross profit depending on how the premium is used.
D. Inventory Management Plan
 Inventory management is a group of strategies that are used to control inventory levels
in various supply chain organizations.

26. Three Kinds of Inventory Plan
1. Cycle Inventory:
 It refers to the portion of inventory that varies as goods are received, used, and
reordered according to a regular schedule or cycle. It represents the ongoing
replenishment of inventory based on expected usage patterns.
 Purpose: The purpose of cycle inventory is to ensure that an organization maintains
a consistent flow of products to meet regular, recurring demand. It is often
associated with planned, routine inventory replenishment.

27. Three Kinds of Inventory Plan
2. Safety Inventory:
 Safety stock, also known as buffer stock, is a reserve of inventory held to protect
against uncertainties in demand or supply. It acts as a safety net to prevent stock
outs during unexpected fluctuations or delays.
 Purpose: The primary purpose of safety stock is to ensure that the organization can
meet customer demand even when demand exceeds expectations or when supply
chain disruptions occur. It provides a buffer against variability.

28. Three Kinds of Inventory Plan
3. Seasonal Inventory:
 Seasonal inventory refers to additional inventory held in anticipation of seasonal
demand patterns. It is used to prepare for increased demand during specific periods,
such as holidays or peak seasons.
 Purpose: The purpose of seasonal inventory is to position products in advance of
expected increases in demand, allowing the organization to capitalize on market
opportunities and customer preferences during seasonal peaks.

29. SOURCE: Categories of Supply Chain Operations
 The next phase is creation or procurement after planning. Concentrate primarily on
maintaining a close partnership with suppliers of essential raw materials.

30. A. Procurement
 It is the acquisition procedure used by an organization to obtain the required
products and services.
Five Procurement Activities:
1. Purchasing
2. Consumption Management
3. Vendor Selection
4. Contract Negotiation
5. Contract Management
