Closure Note
Supply Chain Management (SCM) was once a "pie in the sky" concept that could not be fully achieved. A key barrier was the cost of communicating with and coordinating among the many independent suppliers in each supply chain.
SCM is possible because of three changes: Technology has developed that simplifies
communication. New management paradigms have developed
that are shared among supply chain members. coordination efforts. and the development of a
highly trained workforce .Store management has moved towards new era through increased input from information technology
