Course Overview
Participants understand the key dimensions that need to be balanced in effective supply chain management. Different types of supply chains are reviewed, as well as the different types of supply chain strategies for both retailers and suppliers (including “efficient” and “responsive” supply chains). Participants learn about the three supply chain flows (information, product and financial), and how they each relate to the supply chain. Forecasts, inventory levels, order placement, product specifications, general conditions of grade, invoices, order tracking, order delivery methods, product return flows, credit terms, accounts receivable and product pricing/invoicing are covered.
