Supply Change Management (SCM) is not a one-size-fits-all proposition.
It it is ultimately a reflection of how you do business, and as such, it should underscore your company’s unique proposition.
“Supply Chain Management offers avenues or points of differentiation for you to develop a more successful business model than your competition,” writes SCM expert Keith McNeil in his second exclusive paper for Cin7. “Studying and benchmarking other successful companies across diverse industries is the way to get started. However, be wary of assuming that tactics that are successful for them must be appropriate for your company.”
McNeil’s paper, How Do I Make My Supply Chain More Effective Than My Competitor’s? touches on seven points that will help you merge your SCM strategy with your business model. In general, the best approach to managing your supply chain will take into account the people, process and technology comprised in your business.
The paper picks up where McNeil left off in his introduction to SCM, with questions and examples that a business of any size needs to consider. SCM isn’t simply an exercise in logistics, but it forms the backbone and illustrates the character of any company whose primary responsibility is moving a product from the supply end to the customer end.
McNeil doesn’t pull any punches. Developing a SCM approach to suit your business model is not easy, but it is necessary. Drawing on his 25 years experience in leading supply chain transformations in Australia and NZ, McNeil gives you the best way to begin thinking seriously about improving your business with an SCM approach that is unique to your business.
