Supply Chain Management Approaches Traditional vs Modern SCM.pptxSnehal Athawale
Supply chain management (SCM) refers to the management of the flow of goods and services from the point of origin to the point of consumption. Effective SCM is essential for companies to ensure timely delivery of goods, minimize inventory costs, and improve customer satisfaction. There are two main approaches to SCM: traditional and modern.
Traditional SCM focuses on optimizing the supply chain by minimizing costs and maximizing efficiency. The approach is based on a linear, sequential model that involves sourcing raw materials, transforming them into finished goods, and delivering them to customers. The traditional approach is often associated with a centralized decision-making process, with a strong emphasis on control and coordination. The focus is on reducing costs and improving efficiency through the use of lean production techniques and just-in-time inventory management.
In contrast, modern SCM emphasizes collaboration and flexibility, with a focus on meeting customer needs and achieving sustainability goals. The modern approach is based on a circular, networked model that involves multiple stakeholders working together to create value. The modern approach is often associated with decentralized decision-making processes, with a strong emphasis on collaboration and communication. The focus is on achieving sustainability and resilience through the use of digital technologies, data analytics, and supply chain visibility.
Some of the key differences between traditional and modern SCM include:
Focus: Traditional SCM focuses on reducing costs and improving efficiency, while modern SCM focuses on meeting customer needs and achieving sustainability goals.
Decision-making: Traditional SCM relies on centralized decision-making processes, while modern SCM emphasizes decentralized decision-making processes.
Collaboration: Traditional SCM is based on a linear model that emphasizes control and coordination, while modern SCM is based on a circular model that emphasizes collaboration and communication.
Technology: Modern SCM makes greater use of digital technologies, data analytics, and supply chain visibility to achieve sustainability and resilience.
