Book Synopsis Guide to Supply Chain Management by : David Steven Jacoby
Download or read book Guide to Supply Chain Management written by David Steven Jacoby and published by The Economist. This book was released on 2014-02-25 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Globalization, technology and an increasingly competitive business environment have encouraged huge changes in what is known as supply chain management, the art of sourcing components and delivering finished goods to the customer as cost effectively and efficiently as possible. Dell transformed the way people bought and were able to customize computers. Wal-Mart and Tesco have used their huge buying power and logistical skills to ensure the supply and stock management of their stores is finely honed. Manufacturers now make sure that components are where they are needed on the production line just in time for when they are needed and no longer. Such finessing of the way the supply chain works boosts the corporate bottom line and can make the difference between being a market leader or an also ran. This guide explores all the different aspects of supply chain management and gives hundreds of real life examples of what firms have achieved in the field.

This book was released on 2010-07-07 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2010 in the subject Business economics - Supply, Production, Logistics, grade: 1,2, European School of Business Reutlingen (Business Adminstration), language: English, abstract: The environmental surroundings of most companies have changed radically in recent years. Especially the competitive pressure has risen substantially over the past decades, fuelled by an increased globalization of markets and supply chains. In order to continuously satisfy consumer needs in a timely manner, organizations have to focus on performance and efficiency improvement measures. In terms of supply chain management, performance includes the three dimensions efficiency, effectiveness and flexibility which have to be dealt with on an equal basis. One mean to improve supply chain performance is the linkage between various IT applications involved in the whole supply chain. These efforts and trends are treated under the term electronic supply chain management (E-SCM). There are three major critical success factors for the successful operation of an electronic supply chain. These can be clustered into decision motivation (e.g. a shared vision and a strong motivation), implementation process (e.g. the tight integration of inter-organizational information systems and the re-engineering of inter-organizational business processes) and infrastructure conditions (e.g. agreement upon a shared industry standard). There are numerous benefits of an E-SCM implementation such as increased communication speed and decreased cost in terms of communication, inventory and customer service. Furthermore, E-SCM allows mitigating the bullwhip effect by improv-ing the availability of information throughout the entire supply chain. In addition E-SCM allows organizations to implement an entirely pull-based approach. One downside of E-SCM is the need to make a company’s entire business processes transparent, also towards supply chain partners who might be engaged with competitors. A further danger of E-SCM is to over-rely on speed rather than on flexibility.

Book Synopsis Supply Chain Performance Measurement in Textile Enterprises by : Pranav C. Charkha
Download or read book Supply Chain Performance Measurement in Textile Enterprises written by Pranav C. Charkha and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2024-06-28 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new volume provides detailed insight into supply chain management (SCM) and supply chain performance measurement (SCPM) in the textile industry. The book provides a comprehensive set of performance sub-criteria for the evaluation of SCPM, offering the information needed to understand, implement, and evaluate the supply chain performance of the textile industry and its cyclic processes. Using the Delphi method (a process used to arrive at a group opinion or decision by surveying a panel of experts), the authors studied several companies of diverse sizes and applied an analytical hierarchy process to establish crucial performance measurement criteria and sub-criteria. Around 80 textile industry personnel were contacted, including general managers, factory managers, managers, assistant managers, executives, and supervisors involved in various functions related to textile supply chains to discuss procurement, production, and distribution alternatives. The authors employed the multi-criteria decision-making technique, i.e. analytical hierarchy process, for executing pair-wise comparison and establishing priority weights of criteria, sub-criteria, and for estimating the contribution of supply chain cyclic processes to overall supply chain performance.

Book Synopsis Supply Chain Management by : Ralf Hieber
Download or read book Supply Chain Management written by Ralf Hieber and published by vdf Hochschulverlag AG. This book was released on 2002 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Supply chain management is emerging as one of the most powerful logistics management concepts for improving performance across the entire logistics network. Companies that have already streamlined their internal business process are now working to realise further savings by improving the external business relationships within the more and more complex, linked value-adding business processes in logistics networks. Although the benefits of SCM are well-known in industry, until now companies have only put this concept into practice in a limited way. Therefore, the newly developed integral model of collaborative performance measurement in this book will make a contribution towards easing and supporting improvements in supply chain management as well as giving specific guidelines for its implementation. Furthermore, the author provides newly developed key performance indicators that enable the measurement of the performance of co-operation across the extended enterprise in a supply chain environment. Based on case studies, the integral model, in close connection to the SCOR model, was applied and has proven its applicability in industrial practice. This book presents a rich variety of concepts and methods for industrial engineers, business managers, engineers and consultants as well as success stories in supply chain management.
Book Synopsis Measuring the Value of the Supply Chain by : Enrico Camerinelli
Download or read book Measuring the Value of the Supply Chain written by Enrico Camerinelli and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a company ecosystem the supply chain manager is tasked with duties and objectives primarily aimed at controlling and reducing costs, while optimizing the material flows. Yet, in many organizations, common perception limits supply chain management to product logistics, materials handling and warehouse management. The supply chain manager must learn how to communicate the results of his work to show the importance and impact supply chain management operations have on a company. In this book, Enrico Camerinelli provides the supply chain manager and the chief financial officer with the means to link the value of the supply chain to an organization's bottom line. He explores the problem with current supply chain metrics, shows how to close the gap between financial decisions and supply chain performance, suggests a model to provide a lingua franca for supply chain, financial and other managers throughout the company and points to ways in which new technology can help measure the value of the supply chain. Using case studies and interviews with supply chain and financial experts, Measuring the Value of the Supply Chain will help financial and supply chain managers achieve strategic advantage through effective supply chain management.
Book Synopsis Differenziertes Performance Measurement in Supply Chains by : Anke Giese
Download or read book Differenziertes Performance Measurement in Supply Chains written by Anke Giese and published by Springer-Verlag. This book was released on 2012-02-23 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wie lassen sich verschiedene Supply Chain-Strategien abgrenzen und welche Gestaltungsempfehlungen können bezüglich eines differenzierten, auf die individuelle Supply Chain-Strategie zugeschnittenen Performance Measurement gegeben werden? Anke Giese untersucht vor dem Hintergrund dieser Frage zunächst diverse Möglichkeiten zur Typologisierung von Supply Chain-Strategien und stellt einen Ansatz zur Abgrenzung unterschiedlicher Supply Chain-Typen vor. Auf Basis dieser Typologisierung wird ein differenziertes, prozessorientiertes Konzept zur Einführung eines Performance Measurement entwickelt. Im Rahmen der Vorbereitungsphase werden dabei Fragen der Strategieableitung sowie der organisatorischen Verankerung eines Performance Measurement in den verschiedenen Supply Chain-Typen diskutiert. Somit werden für alle im Rahmen der Einführung eines Performance Measurement-Konzepts zu treffenden Entscheidungen Handlungsempfehlungen abgeleitet, die jeweils in Abhängigkeit von dem zugrunde liegenden Supply Chain-Typ diskutiert werden.

Download or read book Development of a supply chain performance measurement system written by Christian Biewald and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2014-10-29 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2014 in the subject Business economics - Supply, Production, Logistics, grade: 1,3, University of Applied Sciences Kempten, language: English, abstract: The goal of this master thesis is to provide an analysis of existing supply chain performance measurement systems as well as an evaluation of their suitability for the electronics manufacturing industry. Furthermore, the hypothesis that the implementation of a supply chain performance measurement system in cooperation with supply chain partners will lead to sustainable competitive advantages within the supply chain is going to be proven. As competitiveness in future industry will be increasingly “supply chain vs. supply chain”, rather than “firm vs. firm”, holistic performance measurement systems become more and more relevant to global operating companies (Hult, 2008, p.538). Although the efficient management of global supply chain networks already has the potential to create competitive advantages, most industrial companies still focus on production efficiency and selective optimization that disable fast adaption to changing customer requirements. In increasingly saturated markets a technology-driven competitive advantage is often quickly compensated by low-cost countries. In contrast high service quality established by efficient logistics processes can hardly be adopted in short time (Richert, 2006, p.44). Especially in the areas of fast moving consumer goods and the electronics industry, companies need to be able to quickly react on changing consumer demands in order to fulfill the customer’s requirements in a flexible way. Cooperative management between supply chain partners creates higher transparency and market-orientation, that allows the entire supply chain network to operate in a more flexible and efficient way. In consequence the supply chain’s competitiveness will increase due to higher service value for the customer. But, as most industries still struggle with the development of flexible supply chain structures, suitable management tools are obviously not available or applied yet. Therefore, this master thesis provides in a first step an evaluation of existing supply chain performance measurement systems regarding their suitability for current business environments. In a second step the development process towards a practical implementation of the most suitable performance measurement system in an electronics manufacturing company is described. Based on a defined supply chain strategy a standardized approach leads to the development of a supply chain management system providing the preconditions for creating a competitive advantage.
Book Synopsis Management Accounting in Supply Chains by : Andreas Taschner
Download or read book Management Accounting in Supply Chains written by Andreas Taschner and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2024-01-06 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In today's business landscape, companies compete more and more as integrated supply chains rather than as individual firms. The success of the entire supply chain determines the economic well-being of each company involved. With management attention shifting to supply chains, the role of management accounting naturally must extend to the cross-company layer as well. This book demonstrates how management accounting can make a significant contribution to supply chain success. It targets students who are already familiar with the fundamentals of accounting and want to extend their expertise in the field of cross-company (or network) management accounting. Practitioners will draw valuable insights from the text as well. This second edition includes a new Chapter on Digitalization and Supply Chain Accounting, as well as new opener cases to each chapter that provide real-world examples.

Produktions- und Investitionstheorie), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Supply Chain Management und Performance Measurement sind Ergebnisse der beiden jüngsten großen Paradigmenwechsel der Betriebswirtschaftslehre Ende des 20. und Anfang des 21. Jahrhunderts. Mehr und mehr gelangte man zu der Erkenntnis, daß Integration und Management von Schlüsselprozessen über alle Mitglieder einer Supply Chain hinweg den Erfolg der Einzelunternehmung ausmachen. Ein wesentliches Element der Unternehmensführung ist das Controlling, welches sich aufgrund der neuen Anforderungen des Supply Chain Managements stetig weiterentwickelt hat. Der zweite große Paradigmenwechsel wurde in den 1980er und -90er Jahren ausgelöst. Neue Begriffe wie "Lean Production" oder "TPM" wurden mit Inhalten und Konzepten versehen. Dieser Ansatz der Unternehmensführung brachte es mit sich, daß auch die bisher existierenden Controlling-Konzepte zur Leistungsmessung und -beurteilung von Unternehmungen modifiziert werden mußten. Konzepte des Performance Managements und Performance Measurements nahmen ihren Einzug in die Wirtschaft. Bisher werden modernes Supply Chain Management und die modernen Arten des Controllings noch nicht umfassend in der Literatur zusammengeführt.

Daraus leitet sich der Bedarf für ein Performance Measurement in Supply Chains ab. Abschließend wird die Anwendbarkeit anderer Performance Measurement Konzepte auf Supply Chains untersucht.
