What is the Supply Chain? A supply chain consists of the activities and infrastructure whose purpose is to move products from where they are produced to where they are consumed. Source: Fundamentals of Supply Chain Theory.
Extreme Supply Chain Alternatives • A totally “Flat” supply chain network: Chinese factories ship production directly to retailers who keep inventories on their retail shelves. • An extensively “Hierarchical” supply chain network: Overseas factories ship to a single national warehouse. From there to one of 10 regional warehouses. From there to the retailer.
Supply Chain-Why it Matters? • Supply Chain management accounted for nearly 10% of US GDP, over $1 trillion in 2010. • Supply Chain related activities can account for as much as 50% of the final price of a product. • Industrial real estate is heavily influenced by changes in the supply chain.
