Achieving Supply Chain Productivity
Overview Supply chain visibility certainly is a significant supply chain issue. Getting better information on inbound movements, customer stock, and store shelf inventory will lead to cost savings. But these potential improvements are incremental in nature, not paradigmatic change. Supply chain managers must be responsible for the earning power and productivity of the assets in their trust, not just for cost control of these assets. This is supply chain productivity, and it goes far beyond traditional supply chain management. Supply chain productivity is essentially a ratio. The numerator represents the net profits generated by the supply chain assets. The denominator represents the assets, chiefly inventory, required to generate the profits.
