<p>Globalisation requires from companies greater flexibility and adaptability of its internal processes, to allow them be aligned to market requirements. This flexibility results in new forms of relationships between partners, supply chains. For these chains differentiate themselves from their competitors, they should add value to products and services that they deliver to the end customer, while being profitable from the standpoint of its processes and operations. In this sense, would be needed effective supply chain management, which is constituted by collaboration and cooperation among partners, strategic and processes integration, to result in a profitable operation, and products and services with added value to the customer. Additionally, because logistics is a key element for the integration and collaboration among SC members, and due the fact that, depending of the scope of these chains, there are potentially more risks happening, which may have negative impacts on the customer service level, and consequently, loss of effectiveness of their logistics processes. This study aims to analyze the risks in a product distribution process in the Brazilian automotive sector, considering the operations performed by a logistics operator of this automaker.</p><strong>Keywords: </strong>Automotive Industry; Logistics Operator; Supply Chain; Supply Chain Management; Risks Management.

Rapid development in Manufacturing field and in information is more sophisticated now. Here to this can help the manufacturer in developing supply chain management and building better cooperation between parties such as distributor, supplier, and  consumer. There is a policy which is using this technology known Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI). With this policy manufacturer can give responsibility to the supplier for managing and  determining when and how much the product will be delivered according to inventory and demand in that time. PT Sampharindo Perdana is a company in pharmaceutical. Today this company manufactures 88 medicine consist of capsule, pill, syrup, and drops. The problem faced by this Company is orderchanging from distributor. So that, if it is happen very often it can make lateness and cancel the orders. Avoiding from that problem, we can use VMI policy with LRP logics as a tools of detemining when and how much delivery will be carried on to the distributor. From this policy we will get a policy to determine when and how much delivery will be carried on to the distributor.This policy can minimize average inventory to 8% and enhance service level up to 4%.

The right to obtain food is one of human right, as it stated in the article 27 of the 1945 Constitution and in the Rome Declaration (1996). The aim of this study is to find out and analyze the development of supply chain management models that are used to maximize rice production in order to improve food security and security in Demak Regency. The methodology that used of this study is descriptive qualitative with the data collection method used in-depth interviews and Focus Group Discussion (FGD) and literature study. The result of this study indicate that it can increase rice production and increase the rice fulfillment ratio around 12% at the end of the 2032 period and the scenario with the efficiency of the rice supply chain can reduce the logistics costs between farmers and rice traders around 14.3%. The conclusion of this study is to increase the ratio of rice fulfillment and creates the efficiency in supply chain management. This shows that based on parameters changes by increasing the value of crop agro-input and extensification scenarios which can increase the rice production per year and rice fulfillment ratio, while scenarios with rice supply chain efficiency can reduce the logistics costs between farmers and rice traders around 14.3%. While the rice prices were also affected and had a price reduction ratio of 3.75%.
