Course Objectives:	The goal of supply chain management is to link the marketplace, the distribution network, the manufacturing process and the procurement activity in such a way that customers are serviced at higher levels and yet at a lower total cost. The role of logistics in using service levels to segment markets, exploring appropriate measures to assess logistics productivity and service performance. This course provides information on auditing logistic systems and describes how greater responsiveness in the supply chain can be achieved through lead time reduction.

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
I. Analyzes how logistics capabilities and supply chain excellence can help companies gain a competitive advantage. It will also look at the relationship between logistics and financial performance.
II. Explains which customer value can be created and delivered through the supply chain. The theme will be demand-driven and responsive supply chain strategies.
III. Analyzes the need to understand the 'costs-to-serve'. Issues such as customer profitability analysis and benchmarking will be discussed.
IV. Discusses the concept of the agile supply chain and the building blocks of the agile paradigm.
V. Analyzes time compression including the search for ways in which non-value adding time can be removed from the pipeline.
VI. Examines the ideas of supply chain risk and vulnerability and explores ways in which supply chain resilience can be improved.
VII. Examines the fundamental business transformations that are required to enable supply chain integration to become a reality.
VIII. Examines the characteristics of effective supply chains.
