Wal-Mart Used Technology to Become Supply Chain Leader by To.docxmelbruce90096
Wal-Mart Used Technology to Become Supply Chain Leader
by Todd Traub
Posted 7/2/2012 in Arkansas Business
______________________________________________________________________________
It is hard to talk about supply chain management without mentioning Wal-Mart.
In its relentless pursuit of low consumer prices, Wal-Mart embraced technology to become an
innovator in the way stores track inventory and restock their shelves, cutting costs and passing
the savings along to customers. In the process the company became synonymous with the
concept of successful supply chain management.
“I don’t believe there is a university in the world that doesn’t talk about Wal-Mart and the supply
chain,” said James Crowell, director of the Supply Chain Management Research Center at the
Walton College of Business. “They are just so well respected because they do it so well, and
certainly I know a lot of peer institutions around our country … will bring a Wal-Mart guest to
speak.”
From ancient times through two world wars to today’s global market, the logistics of supply
chain management have challenged any enterprise that tries to move goods and materials a long
way in a timely manner. A break in the supply chain leading to a dearth of food or ammunition
could spell disaster for an army on the move. For consumers and businesses, a supply chain
breakdown means empty shelves and a loss of revenue.
Through a combination of distribution practices, truck fleet management and technological
innovations, Wal-Mart not only became the model of supply chain efficiency and used it to
become the largest retailer and private sector employer in the world.
Even the U.S. military noticed. Army Col. Vernon L. Beatty, who commanded the Defense
Distribution Depot in Kuwait, spent a year with Wal-Mart as part of the military’s Training With
Industry program.
“Supply chain management is moving the right items to the right customer at the right time by
the most efficient means,” Beatty said in article about his experience. “No one does that better
than Wal-Mart.”
Fewer Links
Wal-Mart’s supply chain innovation began with the company removing a few of the chain’s
links.
In the 1980s Wal-Mart began working directly with manufacturers to cut costs and more
efficiently manage the supply chain. From 1993 to 2001, Wal-Mart grew from doing $1 billion
mailto:[email protected]
in business a week to $1 billion every 36 hours, growth that was attributed as much to supply
chain management as to customer service.
Last year, Wal-Mart sold $1.22 billion worth of merchandise every day.
Under a Wal-Mart’s supply chain initiative called VMI — vendor managed inventory —
manufacturers became responsible for managing their products in Wal-Mart’s warehouses. As a
result, Wal-Mart could expect close to 100 percent order fulfillment on merchandise.
Wal-Mart streamlined supply chain management by constructing communication and
relationship networks with s.

WAL-MART'S SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT PRACTICES
“When you start to collapse the supply chain, accuracy in execution becomes critical. Any lack of
accurate information and processes creates costly bottlenecks in the flow of goods and materials.”
-- Bruce Richmond, Global head, Andersen Consulting.
