Book excerpt: Who will be responsible for making the decisions to include or exclude requested changes once Supply Chain Management is underway? How does the organization define, manage, and improve its Supply Chain Management processes? Who are the Supply Chain Management improvement team members, including Management Leads and Coaches? What other areas of the organization might benefit from the Supply Chain Management team's improvements, knowledge, and learning? What does Supply Chain Management success mean to the stakeholders? Defining, designing, creating, and implementing a process to solve a business challenge or meet a business objective is the most valuable role... In EVERY company, organization and department. Unless you are talking a one-time, single-use project within a business, there should be a process. Whether that process is managed and implemented by humans, AI, or a combination of the two, it needs to be designed by someone with a complex enough perspective to ask the right questions. Someone capable of asking the right questions and step back and say, 'What are we really trying to accomplish here? And is there a different way to look at it?' For more than twenty years, The Art of Service's Self-Assessments empower people who can do just that - whether their title is marketer, entrepreneur, manager, salesperson, consultant, business process manager, executive assistant, IT Manager, CxO etc... - they are the people who rule the future. They are people who watch the process as it happens, and ask the right questions to make the process work better. This book is for managers, advisors, consultants, specialists, professionals and anyone interested in Supply Chain Management assessment. Featuring 372 new and updated case-based questions, organized into seven core areas of process design, this Self-Assessment will help you identify areas in which Supply Chain Management improvements can be made. In using the questions you will be better able to: - diagnose Supply Chain Management projects, initiatives, organizations, businesses and processes using accepted diagnostic standards and practices - implement evidence-based best practice strategies aligned with overall goals - integrate recent advances in Supply Chain Management and process design strategies into practice according to best practice guidelines Using a Self-Assessment tool known as the Supply Chain Management Index, you will develop a clear picture of which Supply Chain Management areas need attention.
