What is Supply Chain
A supply chain is the flow of physical goods,
information, people and finance
Suppliers/
Mfg plants
Distribution
centres Warehouses
Retail stores
Head office
Physical goods
Information
Finance
Managing the information flow is becoming increasingly important.
Definition of SCM
Supply chain management is concerned with the efficient
integration of suppliers, factories, warehouses and stores so
that goods and services are produced and distributed:
• In the right quantities
• To the right locations
• At the right time
In order to • Minimize total system cost
• Satisfy customer service requirements

The Evolution of SCM
Old paradigm - Firm gained synergy as a vertically integrated firm encompassing the ownership and coordination of several supply chain activities.
• Focus on mass production; purchasing efficiency & aggressive negotiation.
New paradigm - Firms in a supply chain focus activities in their area of specialization (core competency) and enter into voluntary and trust-based relationships with supplier and customer firms • Focus on sensing customer demand & responding (agility)

Supply Chain Disruption Map
Why are Supply Chains Increasingly
Vulnerable?
What is making supply chain management difficult:
• Global Sourcing – Increasing number of hand-offs, not necessarily location
• Lean Operations – Reduced inventories; JIT
• Supply Chain Complexity – Globalisation and outsourcing
• Supply Base Reduction – Prevalence of sole sourcing

What is Supply Chain Risk Management
“the management of supply chain risks through
coordination or collaboration among the supply chain
partners so as to ensure profitability and continuity” (Tang,
2006).
……a supply chain is only as strong as its weakest link!

Strategies based on Redundancy and Flexibility
Redundancy Flexibility
1. Inject safety stock
• Buffer uncertain and variable
demand and supply
• Not lean
2. Add excess capacity
• Operational equivalent of safety
stock
• Internal or through supply network
1. Interchangeability
• Modular plants
• Modular processes
• Modular products
2. Visibility
3. Increase agility
4. Postponement

Contingency Planning
Establishing a pre-set course of action for an anticipated scenario.
i.e. virtual buffering, because it involves securing buffers only when needed, rather than holding them continuously in advance.
Use when the risk from an event becomes more severe.
Do not hold resources, but instead develop a plan for obtaining them when needed.
E.g. flexible supply contracts, multi-sourcing, reserve shipping capacity, temporary workers.
E.g. contracts with alternative suppliers to provide backup in case of disruption.

• Shipment discrepancies noticed
within 3 days.
• Philips is pushed hard.
• New supply sources.
• New chip design.
• Global capacity grab.
• Problem undiscovered for weeks.
• Slow chain of command.
• Slow response.
• Capacity already taken.
• $400M revenue loss.
• Exits phone manufacture.

Conclusions
Supply chains are increasingly vulnerable to disruption due to macro trends and supply chain design
There is a lack of preparation within industry today
To be a global business, supply chain risk management is a necessity. The key is to determine how to do it efficiently and effectively.
