Supply chain models
• Supply chains are complex structures, and their best practice can vary from industry
to industry.

Types of supply chain models
Continuous Flow Model
• This is one of the most traditional supply chain models and is best suited for
mature industries that operate with a certain degree of stability.

Agile Model
• This model of supply chain is best suited for industries that deal with unpredictable
demand and products that are made to order .

Types of supply chain models
Fast Chain Model
The three main capabilities of this
model are:
v From concept to market in a
short time
v Highest forecast accuracy to
reduce market mediation cost
v End-to-end efficiency to ensure
affordable costs for customers.
• This supply chain model is best suited for industries that manufacture a trendy product
and has a short life cycle, such as fashion items.

Flexible Model
Four main capabilities of this model
are:
v Stock-pile of critical resources
v Rapid-response capability
v Technical strengths in process
and product engineering
v A process flow designed to be
quickly reconfigurable.
• This model is best suited for industries with no unexpected demands or relatively
predictable demand peaks and long periods of low workload.

Custom Configured Model
• As the name suggests, this model’s primary focus is on providing custom
configurations, especially for assembly and production processes. It is a hybrid
combination of the agile model and the continuous flow model.

Efficient Chain Model
• This model is best suited for businesses operating in highly competitive markets
wherein pricing plays a large part and businesses are fighting for the same group of
customers.
• Management must maximize the utilization of machinery and other assets at their
disposal to maintain high overall equipment efficiency and a resultant reduction in
cost.
