Supply Chain Modelling and Solutions discusses supply chain basics “ from modelling to software solutions and their selection, SCM solutions and their selection approach and implementation methodology “ in a simple understandable language.
The book explains the gamut of business processes employed across the supply chain and gives a thorough understanding of what needs to be performed and how. Since a system with various interfaces cannot be very simple, it also deals with complex supply chain framework and explains structure of supply chain in terms of its network elements, business processes and management components involved. This helps in differentiating between processes and the decisions involved to manage the processes. As a precursor to modelling, basic understanding required for the modelling has also been discussed in brief.
A comprehensive software requirement criterion in form of Primary and Secondary requirement has also been developed to give students, consultants and industry practitioner a broad and thorough insight to solution evaluation process. Further to that a unique software selection architecture and percentage based weighted tree approach has been developed to evaluate Solution Merit Index (SMI). Another unique feature, which makes this book different from other SCM books, is inclusion of a chapter on Implementation of Supply Chain Solutions. Right from chalking down supply chain strategy to making supply chain happen, it deals with solution selection strategy, solution implementation plan, implementation process and other related issues that also talk about integrating ERP, SCM and CRM.
The book provides sufficient information and sustains readers` interest to learn and practice the concept and implementation in real-time situations. It addresses the needs of all three segments, viz., academia, industry and consultants/experts need in a focused manner. It will not only serve as a reference handbook for software selection and its implementation but would also serve as a useful guide for students, faculties, executives and consultants.isbn-9781403931993
