The document provides an overview of supply chain management (SCM), highlighting its evolution from traditional cost-focused approaches to modern data-driven strategies that enhance product quality, delivery, and profitability. It discusses key components of SCM, including planning, sourcing, manufacturing, logistics, and returns, while distinguishing it from logistics as a subset of broader SCM activities. The importance of SCM is emphasized in terms of improving customer service, reducing costs, and its societal impact, such as ensuring human survival and enhancing quality of life.

A CHAIN WITHOUT SHACKLES
Supply Chain Management is the broad range of activities required
to plan, control and execute a product's flow, from acquiring raw
materials and production through distribution to the final customer,
in the most streamlined and cost-effective way possible.
SCM encompasses the integrated planning and execution of
processes required to optimize the flow of materials, information
and financial capital in the areas that broadly include demand
planning, sourcing, production, inventory management and storage,
transportation - or logistics - and return for excess or defective
products. Both business strategy and specialized software are used
in these endeavors to create a competitive advantage.

While yesterday’s supply chains were focused on the availability, movement
and cost of physical assets, today’s supply chains are about the
management of data, services and products bundled into solutions. Modern
supply chain management is about much more than just where and when.
Supply chain management affects product and service quality, delivery,
costs, the customer experience and ultimately, profitability.
As recently as 2017 a typical supply chain accessed 50 times more data
than just five years earlier. However, less than a quarter of this data is
being analyzed. That means the value of critical, time-sensitive data — such
as weather, sudden labor shortages, political unrest and microbursts in
demand — can be lost.
Modern supply chains take advantage of massive amounts of data
generated by the chain process and are curated by analytical experts and
data scientists. Future supply chains leaders and the Enterprise Resource
Planning (ERP) systems they manage will likely focus on optimizing the
usefulness of this data — analyzing it in real time with minimal latency.

From an Ape to the Grape

5. Working
Supply Chain Management attempts to centrally control or link the production, shipment, and distribution
of a product. By managing the supply chain, companies are able to cut excess costs and deliver products
to the consumer faster. This is done by keeping tighter control of internal inventories, internal
production, distribution, sales, and the inventories of company vendors.
SCM is based on the idea that nearly every product that comes to market results from the efforts of
various organizations that make up a supply chain. Although supply chains have existed for ages, most
companies have only recently paid attention to them as a value-add to their operations.
In SCM, the Supply Chain Manager coordinates the logistics of all aspects of the supply chain which
consists of five parts:
The plan or strategy
The source (of raw materials or services)
Manufacturing (focused on productivity and efficiency)
Delivery and Logistics
The return system (for defective or unwanted products)

The terms Supply Chain Management and Logistics are often confused or used
synonymously. However, logistics is a component of supply chain management.
It focuses on moving a product or material in the most efficient way so it
arrives at the right place at the right time. It manages activities such as
packaging, transportation, distribution, warehousing and delivery.In contrast,
SCM involves a more expansive range of activities, such as strategic
sourcing of raw materials, procuring the best prices on goods and materials,
and coordinating Supply Chain Visibility (SCV) efforts across the supply chain
network of partners, to name just a few.

Importance
IMPACT AND EFFECTIVENESS
The importance of SCM cannot be underestimated as it is the
train which carries money back to the seller. It can be
elaborated in the following:
Boosts Customer Service
Reduces Operating Costs
Improves Financial Position

8. Societal Roles
SCM impacts the society in the following manner:
Ensures Human Survival
It helps sustain human life as we depend on it for
our basic necessities.
Improves Quality of Life
It affects various parameters which result in the
growth or regression of consumers.
Protects Cultural Freedom and Development
Countries function on this principle.
