What is Supply Chain Management?

Supply chain management (SCM) is a critical process encompassing the planning, coordinating, and controlling activities involved in the flow of goods, services, information, and finances from the point of origin to the end of consumption. 

It involves managing the interconnected network of suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, retailers, and customers to ensure efficient and effective operations throughout the supply chain.

The primary objective of supply chain management is to enhance overall performance and value creation for businesses by optimising key supply chain activities. 

These activities include procurement, production, inventory management, transportation, warehousing, demand planning, customer service, and partner collaboration. 

SCM aims to achieve seamless coordination and synchronisation among these activities to meet customer demands, minimise costs, reduce lead times, and improve customer satisfaction.
