Why do so many people spend so much time implementing supply chain management? Because it’s an unparalleled way to leverage your company’s competitive advantage. The fierce competition in today’s marketplace is led by advances in technology, globalization, and information availability. In highly competitive markets, it’s not enough to simply pursue market share to ensure profitability. Companies must successfully partner with their supply chain organizations to produce value and optimize profitability.
