What Is Supply Chain
Management (SCM)?

Plan       Source   Make   Deliver   Buy




   A set of approaches used to efficiently integrate
            Suppliers
            Manufacturers
            Warehouses
            Distribution centers
   So that the product is produced and distributed
            In the right quantities
            To the right locations
            And at the right time
   System-wide costs are minimized and
   Service level requirements are satisfied
Why Is SCM Difficult?

Plan       Source   Make   Deliver   Buy




   Uncertainty is inherent to every supply chain
            Travel times
            Breakdowns of machines and vehicles
            Weather, natural catastrophe, war
            Local politics, labor conditions, border issues

   The complexity of the problem to globally
    optimize a supply chain is significant
            Minimize internal costs
            Minimize uncertainty
            Deal with remaining uncertainty

                                  trading partners
   Personalized content and services for their
    customers
   Collaborative planning with design partners,
    distributors, and suppliers
   Real-time commitments for design, production,
    inventory, and transportation capacity
   Flexible logistics options to ensure timely

Supply Chain Integration 
Push Strategies
   Classical manufacturing supply chain strategy
   Manufacturing forecasts are long-range
        Orders from retailers warehouses
   Longer response time to react to marketplace changes
        Unable to meet changing demand patterns
        Supply chain inventory becomes obsolete as demand for
         certain products disappears
   Inefficient use of production facilities (factories)
        How is demand determined? Peak? Average?
        How is transportation capacity determined?
   Examples: Auto industry, large appliances, others?
Supply Chain Integration 
Pull Strategies
   Production and distribution are demand-driven
        Coordinated with true customer demand
   None or little inventory held
        Only in response to specific orders
   Fast information flow mechanisms
        POS data
   Decreased lead times
   Decreased retailer inventory
   Decreased variability in the supply chain and especially at
    manufacturers
   Decreased manufacturer inventory
   More efficient use of resources
   More difficult to take advantage of scale opportunities
   Examples: Dell, Amazon
Supply Chain Integration  Push/Pull
       Strategies

               Hybrid of push and pull strategies to overcome
                disadvantages of each
               Early stages of product assembly are done in a push
                manner
               Final product assembly is done based on customer
                demand for specific product configurations
               Supply chain timeline determines push-pull boundary

Successful Supply Chain Collaboration
      Try to collaborate internally before you try external
       collaboration
      Help your partners to work with you
      Share the savings
      Start small (a limited number of selected partners) and
       stay focused on what you want to achieve in the
       collaboration
      Advance your IT capabilities only to the level that you
       expect your partners to manage
      Put a comprehensive metrics program in place that allows
       you to monitor your partners performance
      Make sure people are kept part of the equation
          Systems do not replace people
          Make sure your organization is populated with competent
           professionals whove done this before

3. Motorola and Hewlett-
Packard
    Co-opetition  if both elements of
    cooperation and competition are
    visible, the relationship between the
    competitors is named co-opetition.
     A firm with a strong position, but lacking
      resources held by the competitor must
      focus on a co-opetitive relationship.
     Within the process, firms develop
      mechanisms that attempt to deal with
      competitiveness
Five types of relationship between a firm and its competitor
4. Properly incorporating
suppliers in their product
development process
    Suppliers can do much more than
    deliver reasonably priced items on
    request.
    Exploiting some of the potential of a
    supplier requires that operations of the
    two companies become more closely
    integrated in the various facets of the
    relationship.
5. A manufacturer how wants to
integrate end-consumers in the
product development process

    Formal way: conjoint analysis
    Informal way: sales representative
    comes home to the HQ with some
    inspiration for the new product
    development
6. How can distance be reduced
in cross-cultural buyer-seller
negotiations
   Cultural dimensions that affect the

      organisational culture
     Different personal behaviour because of
      the different mental programming
6. How can distance be reduced
in cross-cultural buyer-seller
negotiations
    It is possible to reduce the psychic
    distance by an intercultural learning
    process. In this learning process, the
    company transfers knowledge about
    reduction of psychic distances in
    different cultures
     Psychic: Having a special mental ability,
      for example so that you are able to know
      what will happen in the future or know
      what people are thinking
7. Dell entered into a relationship
with IBMs Global Service Division

    Dell has maybe evaluated is own
    competences and realised that service
    support is not its core competence. It
    is better in PC-manufacturing.
    Therefore, it has outsourced the
    service support to IBM, which sees
    this as one of its existing and future
    core competences. That is a
    relationship of value for both partners.
8. Describe the interactions
between buyer and seller in the
diamond model
    In the diamond model, the
    boundaries between buying and
    selling firms become more
    transparent. Interactive, cross
    functional teams openly exchange
    ideas for improving efficiency and
    effectiveness. The goal is to create
    new value together.
