Reducing Costs

The logistics network in the oil industry is highly inflexible, which arises from the production capabilities of crude oil suppliers, long transportation lead times, and the limitations of modes of transportation and energy planning and management. The paper considers the key factors for reducing costs and increasing the company’s profits in managing supply chains: demand management, efficient distribution of petroleum products among customers, better transportation scheduling, warehouse management, and quality and timeliness of information through the automation of the supply chain. And this principle is carried out within the framework of the logistics concept of supply chain coordination - Supply Chain Management. The paper also considers advantages from implementation of supply-chain management. Implementation of supply-chain management in the oil industry can help to reduce costs, increase the company’s profits in managing supply, and manage the planning of deliveries.

Tourism Supply Chain

Tourism supply chain management has become an important research topic as individual firms no longer compete as isolated entities but rather as supply chains in the tourism industry. Despite the evidence that benefits can be gained to improve profitability, competitiveness, and customer satisfaction, the research on how to manage the tourism supply chain is very limited. This research contributes to the literature by applying the theory of constraints (TOC) with systems thinking to tourism supply chain management. It proposes that the key issue in tourism supply chain management is the coordination of business activities and the TOC with systems thinking can effectively support tourism supply chain coordination of the various links and processes. The article examines the TOC performance measures and the drum–buffer–rope model in the context of tourism management and applies the focusing process of the TOC as a continuous improvement approach for tourism supply chain management. The research findings suggest that, given modifications to the TOC terminology and the principles, the TOC principles can work as an excellent approach to facilitate the tourism supply chain management.

This study is aimed at describing the supply chain management of coffee commodity and the role of each of its elements. This study based on the ineffectiveness and inefficiency of coffee commodity business management which involves some elements that caused supply chain for the commodity has not been formed according to the expectation which in turn required a supply chain management able to fix the problem. The supply chain management is described qualitatively using supply chain basic model supported by integrated concepts of supply chain relationship, supply chain configuration, and supply chain coordination. The result of the study reveals that the supply chain management in coffee commodities includes suppliers, gatherers/manufacturers, exporters, and consumers. The distributors play the main role in determining product standards. The relationships between each of supply chain elements have been well established, utilized to distribute the products, and used as a feedback medium if there is a change in quality standards required in accordance with the needs of consumers. To ensure the sustainability of business activities in the supply chain, mutual commitment among the supply chain elements is required especially when it comes to determining the product quality standards and quantity.

In the changing market scenario, supply chain management is getting phenomenal importance amongst researchers. Studies on supply chain management have emphasized the vitality of a long-term strategic relationship between the supplier, distributor and retailer. In this article, the authors have studied a two-stage supply chain coordination problem under uncertain costs and demand information when integrated procurement and distribution decisions of supply chain has to be employed. The model incorporates a single supplier transporting its products to multiple destinations of a retailer. This process becomes tedious, as when items have an inventory carrying cost incurred due to perishable nature of products. Different discount policies are offered to procure and transport goods from the one stage to other stage. Fuzzy set theory is applied to estimate the uncertainty associated with the input parameters and triangular fuzzy numbers are used to analyze the model. A case is presented to validate the procedure.

Tujuan dari makalah ini adalah untuk menciptakan pemahaman yang lebih baik dari Supply Chain Management (SCM), bagaimana ia telah berkembang dan faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi evolusinya. Melalui meneliti literatur, tulisan ini akan menyoroti sejarah evolusi SCM dan faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi hal itu. Menurut makalah ini, sejarah evolusi SCM dapat dibagi menjadi empat tahap: 1) SCM tahap pra, 2) tahap penciptaan, 3) tahap integrasi dan 4) tahap globalisasi. Pada bagian terakhir akan dibahas faktor- faktor yang mempengaruhi proses evolusi SCM. Beberapa faktor tersebut adalah: perusahaan fokus pada pengurangan biaya; meningkatnya persaingan global; perusahaan fokus pada efisiensi peningkatan dan kinerja; konsolidasi kebijakan liberalisasi perdagangan dan gerakan globalisasi; meningkatnya konsentrasi ritel - sentralisasi dan kekuasaan; dan perusahaan meningkat fokus pada kepuasan pelanggan.   The purpose of this paper is to create a better understanding of Supply Chain Management (SCM), how it has evolved and the factors that influence its evolution. Through examining the literature, this paper will highlight the evolutionary history of SCM and the factors that influence it. According to this paper, the evolutionary history of SCM can be divided into four stages: 1) pre-stage SCM, 2) stage of creation, 3) stage of integration and 4) stage of globalization. In the last section we will discuss the factors that influence the evolutionary process of SCM. Some of these factors are: companies focus on reducing costs; increasing global competition; the company focuses on improving efficiency and performance; consolidation of trade liberalization policies and the globalization movement; increasing retail concentration - centralization and power; and companies are increasing focus on customer satisfaction

The Department of Human Settlements (DoHS) has over the years received reports on lack of proper implementation of the Supply Chain Management, in particular the management of movable assets processes. Asset Management is a sub-component within Supply Chain Management in the DoHS. Asset Management is responsible for the management of all movable assets procured by the department. Movable assets such as departmental vehicles, office furniture, computer sets, are used by the officials in performing their day-to-day functions. Officials in the Department are responsible for the management and safeguarding of the assets assigned to them. The research covered in this article aimed to investigate how the department manages its assets and complies with the transversal policies of Supply Chain Management (SCM), which deal with demand management, acquisition management, utilisation management and disposal management processes. The information covered within this research is from varying records, official documents and departmental policies, dealing directly with the problem at hand, especially the management and monitoring of movable assets. Varying methods of collecting and analysing data were used to achieve valid and reliable results. The researcher analysed and compared various information records that informed findings with regard to risk management and control measures, value for money, responsibility and accountability and intervention strategies that may bring about efficiency and effectiveness in the department with regard to management of movable assets. This was done to address the issue of audit queries received by the Department of Human Settlements.

This chapter introduces the concept of electronic supply chain design (eSCD) and empirically examines the impacts of eSCD on supply chain management. eSCD is a supply chain design that integrates and coordinates suppliers, manufacturers, logistic channels, and customers using information technology (IT). In this chapter, a model that shows the effects of eSCD on the customization capability of companies was developed. From previous studies, the model identifies three major effects of eSCD—electronic linkage effect, supply chain coordination effect, and co-engineering effect. The model also shows a process through which an electronic supply chain network is transformed from a simple infrastructure for data exchange into a knowledge-sharing network for fast response and customization. The model was tested using the data collected from the automobile industry in Korea. It was shown that eSCD has significant effects on the supply chain coordination and co-engineering. It was also shown that eSCD affects the customization capability.
