the various challenges and opportunities evolving day by day. Firms from
established and mature economies are increasingly expanding into
emerging markets. Globalization forced companies to change their
competitive priorities and redesign the supply chain aggressively with a
global focus. For some companies the driving factor is the new market for
its products and for some other it is the access to new suppliers or raw
materials from any where from the world at low cost, for a third it is about
lowering the cost of manufacturing and services through outsourcing .
Regardless of a galore of opportunities there are many common supply
chain challenges as they enter or expand their business in emerging
markets: new risk of disruption of quality, financial uncertainties of the
partner, unfamiliar cultures, varied infrastructure, historical reasons and
rapid growth and change. Globalization ,vertical disintegration, outsourcing
and off-shoring, shorter product life cycles, lesser lead time, JIT inventory
are also some factors which led to challenges like information integration,
co-ordination and resource sharing, organisational relationship linkage.
Information is the power of modern scm. A company with modern
technology and having and effective supply chain management system
with information integration as its foundation will have a definite edge over
competitors and various scm challenges

Real-time,
posted January 8,
In my part one and part two posts on this topic, I outlined what I
believe to be the first five grand challenges, namely:
4) A global mindset
When you examine the list, two items stand out as the
greatest potential risks: Cross-functional expertise and
relationships and strong customer and supplier relationships
The study sets out a five point agenda for chief operating officers
over the next two years:
5: Existing supply chain organisation are not truly integrated and empowered
The supply chain organisation needs to be treated as a single integrated organisation.
To be effective, significant improvements require support across all supply chain
functions.
The survey found that many participants were driven by short-term exigencies and did
not strengthen critical capabilities during the recession.

Second, technology helps synchronize and balance the two opposing business objectives of achieving
ultimate customer service at a low cost. Most businesses want to have a very high customer service level, but
they want to do so at the lowest total cost possible. Supply chain technology can help companies assess
tradeoffs to meet their customer's needs, but in a way that allows them to make a profit. Supply chain
planning helps dramatically increase forecast accuracy, streamline product introductions, assess promotions
and create plans attuned to the market, and supply chain execution provides transportation, warehousing and
inventory management to ensure cost-effective order fulfilment and on-time deliveries.
The third area where supply chain technology can favourably impact operating expense is through production
optimization. Companies must make sure that their manufacturing resources are producing the products most
likely to sell at the time the consumer wants to buy. Again, production optimization starts with a good
demand forecastcompanies must know what products to make, when, how much and in what sequences to
