Successful completion of this subject will make you better prepared to confront real business challenges in future. To a casual observer, supply chain management would appear to be just another name for logistics management. There is, undeniably, a strong relationship, but the concept of supply chain management goes far beyond the ordinary concept of logistics management. It deals with the management of a set of activities designed to enhance value for the firm’s customers by integrating business processes across departmental and inter-organisational boundaries, from the raw material stage to the consumption stage. It is often said that supply chain management is about the management of relationships. During your studies you will find this theme reappearing time and again. Supply chain management is about managing the firm’s logistics and other functions in order to achieve cross-functional and cross-organisational synergies with an objective of attaining competitive superiority. This clearly represents a great challenge as well as a tremendous opportunity for most firms in the competitive business environment of today. You will notice that supply chain management focuses on activities which can be classified as logistics activities, such as inventory and distribution management. These are important activities in the firm’s value chain, but in supply chain management these activities are managed in an integrated way, with integration at times taking place across organisational boundaries.
