What Is Supply Chain Management?

Supply chain management is a set of approaches


utilized to efficiently integrate suppliers,
manufacturers, warehouses, and stores, so that
merchandise is produced and distributed at the right
quantities, to the right locations, and at the right time,
in order to minimize system wide costs while
satisfying service level requirements.

Course instructor: Dr. Nguyen Thi Duc Nguyen, School of Industrial Management, Ho Chi Minh city University of Technology

What Is Supply Chain Management?

A typical supply chain is a chain operation such as:


raw materials are procured, products are produced,
shipped to warehouses, and then shipped to
retailers or customers (David Simchi-Levi et al.,
2000)

Course instructor: Dr. Nguyen Thi Duc Nguyen, School of Industrial Management, Ho Chi Minh city University of Technology

What Is Supply Chain Management?

“Fierce competition in today’s global market, the


introduction of products with short life cycles, and
the heightened expectations of customers have
forced business enterprises to invest in, and focus
attention on, their supply chains” (David Simchi-Levi
et al., 2000). Therefore, supply chain management
(SCM), now, is very important role in business
activities!

Emphasize on the role of SCM.

What is Supply Chain Management ( SCM)

‘Supply chain management is the management of the


interconnection of organizations that relate to each other
through upstream and downstream linkages between the
processes that produce value to the ultimate consumer in
the form of products and services’. (Slack et al., 2016)

Why is Supply Chain so important?

Strategic Advantage – It Can Drive Strategy


Manufacturing becomes more efficient
SCM offers opportunity for differentiation (Dell) or
cost reduction (Wal-Mart)
Globalization – It Covers The World
Requires greater coordination of production and
distribution
Increased risk of supply chain interruption
Increases need for robust and flexible supply chains

Course instructor: Dr. Nguyen Thi Duc Nguyen, School of Industrial Management, Ho Chi Minh city University of Technology

Why is Supply Chain so important?

• At the company level, supply chain management impacts


COST – For many products, 20% to 40% of total
product costs are controllable logistics costs.

SERVICE – For many products, performance factors


such as inventory availability and speed of delivery are
critical to customer satisfaction.

chain for sales that have not occurred
• Large lots reduce shipping and production costs
but increase inventory holding and do not reflect
actual sales

Sourcing strategies

42

Instructor: Dr. Nguyen Thi Duc Nguyen


21
Operations Management

Sourcing Issues

• Make-or-buy decisions
• Choosing between obtaining products and
services externally as opposed to producing them
internally
• Outsourcing
• Transfer traditional internal activities and
resources to outside vendors
• Efficiency in specialization
• Focus on core competencies

Course instructor: Dr. Nguyen Thi Duc Nguyen, School of Industrial Management, Ho Chi Minh city University of Technology

Outsourcing

• ‘A contractual relationship between an external vendor


and an enterprise in which the vendor assumes
responsibility for one or more business functions of the
enterprise’ White & James 1993

• Outsource ‘non-core’ activities


• Focus on ‘distinctive or core competences’

– Is spare capacity available ?
• Cost:
– Is it cheaper to make internally?
• Quality:
– Will internal manufacture allow closer quality
control?
• Timescale:
– Is continuous supply available as required?
• Confidentiality:
– Is it necessary to keep data and info secret?

Six Sourcing Strategies

• Many suppliers

• Few suppliers

• Vertical integration

• Joint ventures

• Keiretsu networks

• Virtual companies

Course instructor: Dr. Nguyen Thi Duc Nguyen, School of Industrial Management, Ho Chi Minh city University of Technology

Instructor: Dr. Nguyen Thi Duc Nguyen


23
Operations Management

Many Suppliers

• Commonly used for commodity products


• Purchasing is typically based on price
• Suppliers compete with one another
• Supplier is responsible for technology, expertise,
forecasting, cost, quality, and delivery

Course instructor: Dr. Nguyen Thi Duc Nguyen, School of Industrial Management, Ho Chi Minh city University of Technology

Few Suppliers

• Buyer forms long-term relationships with fewer


suppliers
• Create value through economies of scale and
learning curve improvements
• Suppliers more willing to participate in J I T
programs and contribute design and technological
expertise
• Cost of changing suppliers is huge
• Trade secrets and other alliances may be at risk

Operations Management

Vertical Integration (1 of 2)

Figure 11.2

Course instructor: Dr. Nguyen Thi Duc Nguyen, School of Industrial Management, Ho Chi Minh city University of Technology

Vertical Integration (2 of 2)

• Developing the ability to produce goods or services


previously purchased
• Integration may be forward, towards the customer,
or backward, towards suppliers
• Can improve cost, quality, delivery, and inventory
but requires capital, managerial skills, and demand
• Risky in industries with rapid technological change

Course instructor: Dr. Nguyen Thi Duc Nguyen, School of Industrial Management, Ho Chi Minh city University of Technology

Instructor: Dr. Nguyen Thi Duc Nguyen


25
Operations Management

Joint Ventures

• Formal collaboration
• Enhance skills
• Secure supply
• Reduce costs
• The challenge is to cooperate without
diluting brand or conceding competitive
advantage

Course instructor: Dr. Nguyen Thi Duc Nguyen, School of Industrial Management, Ho Chi Minh city University of Technology

Keiretsu Networks
• A middle ground between few suppliers and vertical
integration
• Supplier becomes part of the company coalition
• Often provide financial support for suppliers through
ownership or loans
• Members expect long-term relationships and provide
technical expertise and stable deliveries
• May extend through several levels of the supply
chain

Course instructor: Dr. Nguyen Thi Duc Nguyen, School of Industrial Management, Ho Chi Minh city University of Technology

Instructor: Dr. Nguyen Thi Duc Nguyen


26
Operations Management

Virtual Companies

• Rely on a variety of supplier relationships to provide


services on demand
• Fluid organizational boundaries that allow the
creation of unique enterprises to meet changing
market demands
• Relationships may be short- or long-term
• Exceptionally lean performance, low capital
investment, flexibility, and speed

Course instructor: Dr. Nguyen Thi Duc Nguyen, School of Industrial Management, Ho Chi Minh city University of Technology

Supply Chain Risk
