Supplement 15S, Slide 2
Supplement Objectives
Be able to:Explain why information flows are a
necessary part of any supply chain. Describe in detail how supply chain
information needs vary according to the organizational level and the direction of the linkages (upstream or downstream).
Describe and differentiate among ERP, DSS, CRM, SRM, and logistics applications.

What are some of thekey functions information flows
perform?

Supplement 15S, Slide 4
Key Functions of Information Flows
• Plan or kick-off physical flows– Customer order, production plan, etc.
• Record and retrieve status and plans– Check inventory levels, shipping schedule, etc.
• Codify decision rules and planning values– Standard costs and times, inventory reorder points,
etc.
• Record and report performance– Quality levels, on-time delivery, actual costs, etc.

Supply Chain Information Needs
Strategic decision making
long-range plans to meet organization’s mission
• Focus on long-term decisions• Least structured of all• Greatest user discretion
• Flexibility
Tactical planning plans to coordinate actions across supply chain
• Focus is on tactical decisions• Plans physical flows• Greater user discretion
• Form • Flexibility
Routine decision making support rule-based decision making
• Fairly short time frames• Limited user discretion
• Accuracy• Timeliness• Limited flexibility
Execution and transaction processing record / retrieve data & control physical / monetary flows
• Very short time frames, very high volumes• Highly automated• Standardized business practices• Ideally no user intervention
• Accuracy• Timeliness

ERPapplications
Large, integrated computer-based business transaction processing and reporting systems. ERP systems pull together all of the classic business functions such as accounting, finance, sales, and operations into a single, tightly integrated package that uses a common database.
Traditional strengths in routine decision making and in execution and transaction processing
Captures data to support higher-level decision support systems (DSS)

Advanced Concepts –
Levels of Value Provided by Information
Visibility Information displays the physical and monetary flows in the supply chain
Mirroring Information can replace physical processes with virtual ones
Creation of new customer relationships Information can create new sources of value / new products and services
“How can we exploit these information flows?”
‘Perfect’ Information
Improving Information Flow Processes

Supplement 15S, Slide 17
What is “perfect” Information?
• Perfect information is:– Accurate– Timely– Correct in detail and form– Shared– Complete– Other dimensions?
© 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall --- Introduction to Operations and Supply Chain Management, 2/e --- Bozarth and Handfield, ISBN: 0131791036
Supplement 15S, Slide 18
Costs of “imperfect” Information
• What are some of the costs associated with information that is:– Inaccurate? (e.g., inventory or order info.)– Late? (e.g., forecast changes)– Incomplete in detail / form? (e.g., quarterly
sales $ forecast)?
– Not shared? (e.g., engineering changes)

Supplement 15S, Slide 19
Diagnosing and Improving Supply Chain Information Flows
1. Map the business process(es) containing the information flows of interest
2. Develop an information flow profile that identifies potential performance gaps in the information flows
3. Use continuous improvement techniques to identify the causes of these gaps
4. Use the plan-do-check-act (PDCA) cycle to plan and implement improvements aimed at closing these gaps
