SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT The supply chain is defined as the “entire system of organizations, people, activities, information, and resources involved in moving a raw material, input, or service from supplier to end user.” Managing a firm’s supply chain is a complex task and requires the firm to plan its own operations in concert with its suppliers’ and customers’ operations. The introduction of just-in-time and continuous flow operations in production facilities has created the need for such intensive planning and control. The supply chain management curriculum includes the study of inventory management, transportation management, enterprise resource planning, sourcing and procurement, and decision modeling.
