    Supply chain management is the coordination of the processes and functions within a business, adopted by most companies in the UK in the late 1990’s. It deals with the internal and external factors that, when dealt with correctly and systematically, can determine a businesses success or failure. A supply chain is the network of activities that delivers a finished product service to the customer. By definition, supply chain management (SCM) is “the management of the flows of materials from suppliers to customers in order to reduce overall cost and increase responsiveness to the customers” (Reid & Sanders). SCM entails the co-ordination of the movement of good through the supply chain from suppliers to manufacturers to distributors to the final customer. The main aim of SCM is to maximise the efficiency of any given process being carried out by a company; by doing this it is allowing them to try to cut their costs and hopefully keep satisfying their customers’ needs, while at the same time maintaining their competitive position within their market. Supply chain management is seen as more of an “open system” in contrast to the traditional system used by the majority of companies just 20 years ago. The new “open system” allows room for change which is greatly needed with the current financial instability of the economy.…

    According to the chapter supply chains are seldom static. They are constantly changing and evolving as a result of strategic changes taking place within the firm, competitive actions, changes in technology, and shifts in targeted customers or in customers’ needs. Supply chain management (SCM) is now a fact of life. Increasingly managers, researchers, and educators recognize the importance of SCM as both a strategic and tactical weapon. However, the practice of supply chain management is ever changing. Initially, the supply chain was viewed as an entity that was primarily concerned with the upstream suppliers and supplier management. By the mid 1990s, there was a change in orientation. The focus has shifted from the upstream to the entire supply chain. As we move into the middle of the first decade of the 21st century, we are seeing another shift in focus from supply chain management to strategic supply chain management. As this transition takes, there is a strong need for researchers, managers, and educators to reassess the current and future stages of supply chain management with the goal of identifying, presenting, and implementing a new…
