Supply chain management has emerged as a powerful managerial concept for delivering value to the customer. Delivering value to the customer profitably would require aligning decision making and practices amongst all entities that are involved in the process i.e. the suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, wholesalers, and retailers the supply chain. The program takes a strategic perspective of managing the supply chain and logistics function, and will help participants to develop personal, professional, and organizational capabilities for managing their supply chains. The program will prepare operating managers to leverage SCM capabilities for improving organizational performance, by envisioning the integrated nature, and global structure of supply chains, through strategic and operational performance decision-making. The program has been developed by visualising business as a value chain of business functions / activities that interact with all the other functions within an organization, and external companies, which either supply goods or take products to the customer. The challenge of supply chain management lies in effectively managing and coordinating activities and decisions across functions, external firms, and individuals. The program considers the perspective of managing supply chain, both as an in-house or outsourced activity. The program covers all the strategic issues of SCM, starting with understanding supply chain dynamics, followed by the impact of logistics management, manufacturing, and marketing on SCM, then understanding the costs and financials of SCM, and the role of information, SC performance metrics, and IT in managing supply chains. The program will also cover strategic issues associated with outsourcing supply chain functions to specialist companies through alliances.
