Of late, there has been a flooding of buzzwords like "supply chain management" (a fancy term for procurement), "retailing", "business process", "branding" etc, for mundane tasks that have been carried out for decades by most Indian companies, large and small, but without any fancy terms. I think such hype has been deliberately been introduced by IT and certain other folks for various ulterior reasons. I, for one, don't buy into all this nonsense. To give an example, the family run provision store I patronise seems to have all the stuff I want at all times compared to many Food World outlets many times its size, where many items would be out of stock most of the times. Of course, the family run store loses out because they cannot afford to advertise that they are into "retailing", "cold chain" etc like RPG or Reliance. 246766@desicritics.org Thu, 12 Jul 2007 06:51:58 EDT http://desicritics.org/2006/03/13/230644.php#comment-246737 for+more+info+click+to++%3Ca+href%3D+http%3A%2F%2Fblog.mcla.edu%2Findex.php%2F2007%2F05%2F09%2Fyoutube%2F%3Fdo%3D58%5Fbuy%2Dambien%2Dwith%2Dno%2Dprescription+%3Ebuy+ambien+with+no+prescription%3C%2Fa%3E+%0D%0A%0D%0Afor+more+info+click+to++%3Ca+href%3D+http%3A%2F%2Fblog.mcla.edu%2Findex.php%2F2007%2F05%2F09%2Fyoutube%2F%3Fdo%3D4%5Fambien%2Dperscriptions%2Don%2Dline+%3Eambien+perscriptions+on+line%3C%2Fa%3E+%0D%0A%0D%0A+%3Ca+href%3D+http%3A%2F%2Fblog.mcla.edu%2Findex.php%2F2007%2F05%2F09%2Fyoutube%2F%3Fdo%3D26%5Forder%2Dambien+%3Eorder+ambien%3C%2Fa%3E++about%0D%0A%0D%0Aabout++%3Ca+href%3D+http%3A%2F%2Fblog.mcla.edu%2Findex.php%2F2007%2F05%2F09%2Fyoutube%2F%3Fdo%3D22%5Fambien%2Dsuicide+%3Eambien+suicide+information%3C%2Fa%3E+%0D%0A%0D%0Aabout++%3Ca+href%3D+http%3A%2F%2Fblog.mcla.edu%2Findex.php%2F2007%2F05%2F09%2Fyoutube%2F%3Fdo%3D50%5Freq%2Dbuy%2Dambien+%3Ereq+buy+ambien+information%3C%2Fa%3E+%0D%0A%0D%0Au 246737@desicritics.org Thu, 12 Jul 2007 06:15:57 EDT http://desicritics.org/2006/03/13/230644.php#comment-196574 for+more+info+click+to++%3Ca+href%3D+http%3A%2F%2Fso%2Dfree.info+%3Efree+porn+videos%3C%2Fa%3E+%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0AHi%21+Wow%21 196574@desicritics.org Mon, 21 May 2007 17:10:33 EDT http://desicritics.org/2006/03/13/230644.php#comment-6796 This article is good one, this gives basic knowledge to beginner abt SCM ,from this even non tech guy also understand what is SCM. 6796@desicritics.org Mon, 3 Apr 2006 00:00:45 EDT http://desicritics.org/2006/03/13/230644.php#comment-5673 A very good n simple article for an non SCM non IT person to SIT UP and try to visualize understand,assimilate and appreciate the effort that goes into delivering a Product to the customer. One should not discount the fact that information coming from SCM is ONE of the important channels where one gets to understand the buying pattern of the customer thus evolving stratgies for their marketing campaigns. Good One Maite....Keep following the KISS principle of explaining things... Looking forward for more articles from you... 5673@desicritics.org Wed, 22 Mar 2006 23:01:00 EST http://desicritics.org/2006/03/13/230644.php#comment-5610 Nice one Rajiv ! 5610@desicritics.org Wed, 22 Mar 2006 08:18:45 EST http://desicritics.org/2006/03/13/230644.php#comment-5549 A lucid and interesting description of Supply Chain. Quite apt for beginners. Hope to read Part II soon. 5549@desicritics.org Tue, 21 Mar 2006 23:12:40 EST http://desicritics.org/2006/03/13/230644.php#comment-5535 A very simple description. However, SCM are called so because there is a chain-like linkage; a heirarchical transfer of information/goods. It helps keep the terminology fixed in mind. you haven't introduced retailer in the chain, but use it in the description of transfers. it can be confusing. also SCM is mainly supply of information, and around how the planning between levels is organised. Money does not enter SCM, except through contracts and negotiations between linkages, which really does not affect how flow of information is managed. and neither does SCM dictate how production or planning at each linkage has to be done, but that how given planning or production are done at the linkages, the flow of information and planning between linkages can be managed in the best way. So the main problem of SCM is not the chain which in the description above looks unidimensional: A warehouse has many retailers to supply and the stocks at retailers all lost for varying periods of time and need to replenished with various frequencies. Hence, when to ship? How much to ship? becomes harder to decide. *This* is what makes information hard to manage and makes planning between linkages harder. Now there is a lot more to it. But then it is easier to draw out the essence of the problem, than to make it appear complex, when it really is not. :) Its not really about coffee in your hands, its about how every time you go to a shop and ask for coffee, it is *there*. almost always. 5535@desicritics.org Tue, 21 Mar 2006 16:45:02 EST http://desicritics.org/2006/03/13/230644.php#comment-5497 Thanks for comments and suggestions. The part 2 is now up now @ <a href="http://desicritics.org/2006/03/21/114625.php">http://desicritics.org/2006/03/21/114625.php</a> 5497@desicritics.org Tue, 21 Mar 2006 12:06:44 EST http://desicritics.org/2006/03/13/230644.php#comment-5454 Rajiv, This is very good article that make the concept of SCM very simple to beginners. Since you are planning to continue this article i feel that you should take each SCM entity and explain there roles in detail in the entire supply chain. Probably you can start with SCM activities at the retailers and then go back to wholesaler/distributor uptill supplier. Anyways this is good initiative and keep up the good work.

Though I plan to write a part II to take this to next level of detail I dont think I will go the extent of glossary or flow diagrams. Focus is on "awareness" (and the education which may come with it) and not directly "education". Am sure you can find a lot of other resources on the net. My favourite is http://logistics.about.com/ 5336@desicritics.org Sun, 19 Mar 2006 15:03:14 EST http://desicritics.org/2006/03/13/230644.php#comment-5081 Its a good one, but you could add more info on this. Expecially if it is added with pictures and process flow diagrams, that would help the reader grasp faster and better. 5081@desicritics.org Thu, 16 Mar 2006 23:17:15 EST http://desicritics.org/2006/03/13/230644.php#comment-5080 An excellent intro for starters like me. Also would like to have a glossary of terms frequently used in the industry. 5080@desicritics.org Thu, 16 Mar 2006 23:05:18 EST http://desicritics.org/2006/03/13/230644.php#comment-4902 Too simple and good article for people to know what SC means! and great idea for them to think initially that how fascinating the SC process is..just by taking simple example of what they see daily in their life. 4902@desicritics.org Wed, 15 Mar 2006 06:35:11 EST
