Supply Chain
• The Supply Chain consists of Upstream and Downstream partners– Upstream partners are firms that supply what is
needed to create a product or service– Downstream partners connect the firm with its
customers
• A better approach is to think of the supply chain as a Value Delivery Network where all parties partner with each to improve the performance of the entire system
