Supply chain management (SCM) is the process of controlling the operations of the supply chain as a vertical organization. This permits highly efficient resource management and planning. Supply Chain Management spans all movement and storage of raw materials, work-in-process inventory, and finished goods from point-of-origin to point-of-consumption. While this model has worked with difficulty in full production scale, in our scaled down environment it will be easy to implement and a big asset for the customer.

KEY ELEMENTS OF SUPPLY CHAIN STRATEGY
A supply chain strategy involves many interlocking activities and decisions, large and small. According
to Michael Porter, strategy guru and author of Competitive Advantage, successful business strategy relies
on the concept of “fit”—that is, a group of activities that support a chosen competitive strategy.
Although any single activity can be copied, the activities taken together form a system that is virtually
impossible to duplicate.9
Porter’s concept of fitness holds equally true for supply chain strategy. Five elements of your
business—and the choices you make regarding these elements—are fundamental:
Customer service. What are your objectives in terms of delivery speed, accuracy, and
flexibility?
Sales channels. How will your customers order and receive your goods and services?
Value system. Which supply chain activities will be performed by your organization and which
by your partners?
Operating model. How will you organize the planning, ordering, production, and delivery
processes to provide customer service while still meeting your working capital and cost
objectives?
Asset footprint. Where will you locate your supply chain resources, and what is their scope of
action?
Companies often make decisions about each of these elements in isolation, without considering the
others. It’s possible, for example, to develop a manufacturing footprint that reduces costs, only to fall
short of required customer-service levels. To get the full strategic benefit a supply chain can offer,
however, it’s critical to treat each element as part of an integrated whole (Figure 1.2).

CUSTOMER SERVICE
The first step in developing a supply chain strategy is to define customer service objectives. Offering
various levels of delivery speed, accuracy, and flexibility for different types of customers can help
distinguish the overall customer experience. Should, for example, deliveries reach all customers in the
same amount of time, or should customers who are more valuable receive deliveries faster? Should the
ordering process be the same for all customers? Answers to questions like these will be dictated by your
company’s business strategy and target audience—that is, whether you are addressing B2C or B2B
segments.

In the B2C world, off-the-shelf product availability is often the key service criterion. Customers are

Companies are relocating manufacturing and sourcing to regions with lower labour costs to stay competitive. This affects the efficiency of warehousing and distribution. But which elements, in particular, will be strategically important in the next two years?
Markets are changing – as are customer and service requirements. You may have implemented a new manufacturing and supply chain setup, but customers are asking for more frequent and faster deliveries.
The key to staying competitive is how quickly you can get your products from the warehouse to your customers. This can challenge your operations and calls for a review of your warehouse and distribution setup.
We asked our international clients which themes, within warehousing and distribution, they believe will have the most strategic relevance within the next two years. Here are the top five.
Consumer driven supply chain with ONE networkNicole Walker
Why Every Company in the Value Chain Should Care About the End-Consumer
One Network can help your company become consumer-driven.
Why is that important?
Let’s begin with today’s consumer. There’s you, me, and about 7 billion others...
Today’s consumers want the right price, the best quality, and they want it now. What does that mean for your business?
Consider that your success - or failure - eventually depends on whether your end consumers are satisfied. This is true for all companies, in every industry, delivering every kind of product or service. They all exist to eventually serve an end consumer.
Shouldn’t your company be doing all of the right things to ensure success – and the consumer’s satisfaction?
The problem is, you've inherited a tangled mess of disconnected software system that focus on your internal processes and immediate trading partners. This is actually IGNORING the end consumer!

In software engineering, the right architecture is essential for robust, scalable platforms. Wix has undergone a pivotal shift from event sourcing to a CRUD-based model for its microservices. This talk will chart the course of this pivotal journey.
Event sourcing, which records state changes as immutable events, provided robust auditing and "time travel" debugging for Wix Stores' microservices. Despite its benefits, the complexity it introduced in state management slowed development. Wix responded by adopting a simpler, unified CRUD model. This talk will explore the challenges of event sourcing and the advantages of Wix's new "CRUD on steroids" approach, which streamlines API integration and domain event management while preserving data integrity and system resilience.
Participants will gain valuable insights into Wix's strategies for ensuring atomicity in database updates and event production, as well as caching, materialization, and performance optimization techniques within a distributed system.
Join us to discover how Wix has mastered the art of balancing simplicity and extensibility, and learn how the re-adoption of the modest CRUD has turbocharged their development velocity, resilience, and scalability in a high-growth environment.

Globus Compute wth IRI Workflows - GlobusWorld 2024Globus
As part of the DOE Integrated Research Infrastructure (IRI) program, NERSC at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab and ALCF at Argonne National Lab are working closely with General Atomics on accelerating the computing requirements of the DIII-D experiment. As part of the work the team is investigating ways to speedup the time to solution for many different parts of the DIII-D workflow including how they run jobs on HPC systems. One of these routes is looking at Globus Compute as a way to replace the current method for managing tasks and we describe a brief proof of concept showing how Globus Compute could help to schedule jobs and be a tool to connect compute at different facilities.

First Steps with Globus Compute Multi-User EndpointsGlobus
In this presentation we will share our experiences around getting started with the Globus Compute multi-user endpoint. Working with the Pharmacology group at the University of Auckland, we have previously written an application using Globus Compute that can offload computationally expensive steps in the researcher's workflows, which they wish to manage from their familiar Windows environments, onto the NeSI (New Zealand eScience Infrastructure) cluster. Some of the challenges we have encountered were that each researcher had to set up and manage their own single-user globus compute endpoint and that the workloads had varying resource requirements (CPUs, memory and wall time) between different runs. We hope that the multi-user endpoint will help to address these challenges and share an update on our progress here.

What Is Direct-Store Delivery (DSD) What Are Its Benefits.pdf
1. What Is Direct-Store Delivery (DSD)? What Are Its Benefits?
Tithi Agarwal 5 min September 22, 2023
Direct Store Delivery (DSD) is the perfect method for manufacturers and retailers looking to shorten the supply chain cost and dura on. Here’s how it works-
With online shopping becoming a second nature for consumers, retailers must work harder to keep up with the race. This is causing them to lean towards the direct store delivery
format. It allows them to cater to consumer demands more efficiently and speedily.
Wait a second – we get everything you are talking about, but what is direct store delivery (DSD) that you are talking about?
DSD is an interes ng and beneficial form of supply chain and logis cs for retailers to keep their grip on the market.
Scroll down to sa sfy your curiosity buds.

What is Direct Store Delivery (DSD)?
Direct store delivery (DSD) is a distribu on model usually adopted by retailers. Under this model, manufacturers/suppliers deliver directly to retailers instead of sending the goods
from warehouses or distribu on centres.
It is helping businesses to reduce labour costs, warehouse maintenance and wholesale retail distribu on channel costs. Direct store deliveries are a boon for retailers selling
perishable items with ght delivery and consump on windows. This model works best for pharmacy stores, convenience stores, gas sta ons, and food and beverage produc on.
Seven of the top ten largest grocery categories (by unit sales volume) are managed through DSD processes (Beer, Carbonated Beverages, Fresh Produce, Milk, Salty Snacks,
Bread and Baked Snacks, Frozen).
What is the Process of DSD?
DSD process involves retailers placing orders directly with sellers or suppliers. A er receiving orders electronically or through telephonic means, retailers start picking and packing
order for further dispatching it. The process of the DSD model is such that it saves me, eliminates the need for middlemen and gets the product delivered quickly while also
ensuring that they are fresh.
Here are the simple steps for how the order is generally processed from the supplier’s end, managed, and transported un l it reaches the retailer’s doorstep.
1. Order Placed/Generation: The very first step is the retailer store owner placing the order directly with the manufacturer or supplier. Order for the product can be placed over call,
electronic ordering systems or in-person visits by the sales representatives.
2. Product Preparation: On receiving the order, the manufacturer/ supplier at once gets to prepare the products for a ready and quick dispatch. This involves preparing and packing
3. Loading up the Trucks: The order is loaded in the trucks, usually, reefers, as the model is best used for time and temperature-sensitive products such as medicines, food, beverages, etc.
4. Routing and Scheduling: The delivery route is optimised to ensure timely and efficient delivery to multiple retail stores. The schedule considers factors like delivery windows, traffic
conditions, and the specific requirements of each store.
5. Delivery: The delivery trucks transport the products directly to the retail stores. Usually, the delivery personnel are in charge of unloading the order.
