the supply chain of Natural Gas in Iran

A supply chain consists of all parties involved, directly or indirectly, in
fulfilling a customer request. The supply chain includes not only the
manufacturer and suppliers, but also transporters, warehouses,
retailers, and even customers themselves (Chopra and Meindl, 2007).

Categorization of SCM definitions
Ahi and Searcy (2013) reviewed supply chain definitions by focusing on
different concepts as follows:
 Flow
 Coordination
 Stakeholders
 Relationship
 Value
 Efficiency
 Performance

Process views of a SC
 Cycle View: The processes in a supply chain are divided into a series of
cycles, each performed at the interface between two successive stages of
a supply chain.
 Customer order cycle
 Replenishment cycle
 Manufacturing cycle
 Procurement cycle

Process views of a SC (cont.)
 Push/Pull View: The processes in a supply chain are divided into two
categories depending on whether they are executed in response to a
customer order or in anticipation of customer orders.
 Pull processes: response to the customers’ order
 Push processes: response to the anticipation of demands
9

Supply chain macro processes
 Customer Relationship Management (CRM): All processes that focus
on the interface between the firm and its customers.
 Internal supply chain management (ISCM): All processes that are
internal to the firm.
 Supplier Relationship Management (SRM): All processes that focus on
the interface between the firm and its suppliers.

2 key functions in SCM
The objective governing all endeavors within a supply chain is seen as
increasing competitiveness. Competition has shifted from single
companies to supply chains.
There are two broad means for improving the competitiveness of a
supply chain:
 Integration or cooperation of organizations involved in satisfying
customers’ needs.
 Coordinating of material, information and financial flows across the
supply chain.

Integration
A supply chain in the broad sense consists of several legally separated
firms collaborating in the generation of a product or service with the
aim of improving the competitiveness of a supply chain as a whole.
Integration refers to the special building blocks that cause these firms
to collaborate in the long term.
 Choice of suitable partners
 First of all the decision of make or buy
 Issue of core competency
 Selection criteria
 Inter-organizational collaboration
 Leadership
 Focal company or steering committee

integration

Coordination
 Utilization of information and communication technology
 Advances in information technology (IT) made it possible to process
information at different locations in the supply chain and thus enable
the application of advanced planning.
 Process orientation
 aims at coordinating all the activities involved in customer order
fulfillment in the most efficient way.
 Advanced planning
 incorporates long-term, mid-term and short-term planning levels.
 the focus of ERP systems has been a single firm, while APS have been
designed also for inter-organizational supply chains.
15

Bullwhip effect
Occurs when slight demand variability is magnified as
information moves back upstream.
16

Counteraction bullwhip effects
Lee et al. (1997) divided recommendations to counteract the bullwhip
effect into four categories:
 Avoid multiple demand forecast updates
 Break order batches
 Using 3pl providers
 Stabilize prices and
 Eliminate gaming in shortage situations

Supply chain decision making framework
20

Decision phases in a SC
Chopra (2007) categorized supply chain decision phases based on the frequency with
which they are made and the time frame they take into account:
1. Supply Chain Strategy or Design
 Structuring the supply chain
 Supply chain configuration
 Supply chain network design
2. Supply Chain Planning
 Subcontracting manufacturing
 the timing and size of marketing and price promotions
 Based on constrains of supply chain strategy
3. Supply Chain Operation
 Handling individual orders
 Setting schedules of trucks
 … 21

The Supply Chain Operations Reference (SCOR) model:
is a tool for representing, analyzing and configuring supply chains.
The SCOR-model is a reference model. It does not provide any optimization
methods, but aims at providing a standardized terminology for the
description of supply chains. This standardization allows benchmarking of
processes and the extraction of best practices for certain processes.
The standard processes are divided into four hierarchical levels:
 process types
 process categories
 process elements
 Implementation (not included in SCOR model)
24

Level 1 – Process Types
five elementary process types: plan, source, make, deliver and return
 Plan:
 balance resource capacities with demand requirements
 measurement of the supply chain performance and management of
inventories, assets and transportation among others
 Source:
 Identification and selection of suppliers
 management of the supplier network and contracts
 Make:
 schedule production activities, produce and test, packaging
 management of in-process products (WIP), equipment and facilities
 Deliver:
 order reception, reservation of inventories, generating quotations,
consolidation of orders, load building and generation of shipping
documents and invoicing
 Return:
 authorization of returns, scheduling of returns, receiving and disposition
of returned products.
25

Level 2- Process Categories
26

Process categories
The five process types of level 1 are decomposed into 26 process
categories, including five enable process categories, one for each
process type.
Each process category is assigned to either planning, execution or
enable.
The process types source, make and deliver are further decomposed
with respect to the nature of customer orders:
 make-to-stock
 make-to order
 engineer-to-order
27

Level 3-Process elements
The process categories are further decomposed into process elements.
Detailed metrics and best practices for these elements are part of the
SCOR-model at this level (Example of SCOR-model’s level 3).
28

Metrics and Best Practices in SCOR model
The SCOR-model supports performance measurement on each level.
Level 1 metrics provide an overview of the supply chain for the
evaluation by management.

New trend in SCM
 New concerns:
 Service SCM
 Green SCM
 Sustainable SCM
 Humanitarian SCM
 New focused areas:
 Health care
 Air line
 Hotels
 Agriculture
 Renewable energies
 Projects supply chain
32

Service supply chain
Baltacioglu et al. (2007) define the service supply chain as the network of
suppliers, service providers, consumers and other supporting units that
performs the functions of transaction of resources required to produce
services, transformation of these resources into supporting and core
services, and the delivery of these services to customers.
 The customer perceives all services s/he receives as one and as aiming to
provide her/him the ultimate benefit.
SSCs Like Hospitals, Hotels, Universities, MTN Irancell, assurance
agencies, etc.

Service supply chain processes
Service supply chain processes have been defined by Baltacioglu et al. (2007):

Green SCM
Application of environmental management principles to the entire set of
activities across the whole customer order cycle, including design,
procurement, manufacturing and assembly, packaging, logistics, and
distribution (Handfield, 1997).
Integration of environment considerations into supply chain management,
including product design, material sourcing and selection, manufacturing
processes, delivery of the ﬁnal product to the consumers, and end-of-life
management of the greening products (Wee et al., 2011).
36

Reverse logistics/Closed loop supply chain
Closing the loop need reverse logistics.
37

Sustainable SCM
The management of material, information and capital ﬂows as well as
cooperation among companies along the supply chain while taking goals from
all three dimensions of sustainable development, i.e., economic,
environmental and social, into account which are derived from customer and
stakeholder requirements (Seuring, 2008).
An extension to the traditional concept of Supply Chain Management by
adding environmental and social/ethical aspects (Wittstruck &Teuteberg,
2011).

Humanitarian efforts
Humanitarian efforts are organized along two broad lines:
 Disaster relief
 Continuous aid work
disaster relief deals with calamities, destructive actions, and plagues (Long
1997). Continuous aid work is mainly required in the case of plagues and
crises.
Logistics is the most important element in any disaster relief effort, and it is
the one that makes the difference between a successful and a failed
operation.
47

Disaster management cycle phases
The literature concurs on the existence of the following phases:
 Pre disaster actions:
 The mitigation phase refers to laws and mechanisms that reduce
social vulnerability.
 Preparation incorporates the strategies put into place that allow the
implementation of a successful operational response
48

Disaster management cycle phases (cont.)
 During the disaster:
 The response phase refers to the various operations that are instantly
implemented after a disaster occurs:
 Immediate response by temporary network
 restore in the shortest time possible the basic services
and delivery of goods to the highest possible number of beneﬁciaries
 Post disaster:
 reconstruction phase involves rehabilitation, and this phase aims to
address the problem from a long-term perspective.

Role of companies in HSCM
In the humanitarian logistics, companies can play one or more of the
following roles:
 Donors
 As a donor, a company can support humanitarian logistics by giving
ﬁnancial contributions (in cash) to fund aid operations
 Collector
 As a collector, a company can gather ﬁnancial means from its
customers, its employees, and its suppliers in order to fund aid
operations
 Providers
 As a provider, a company can offer its goods and services for free (in-
kind donation) or as a consequence of a selling action.
