Decision Phases in a Supply Chain
1 – 15
Supply Chain Strategy or Design
• Decisions about the configuration of the supply chain,
allocation of resources, and what processes each stage
will perform
• Strategic supply chain decisions
– Locations and capacities of facilities
– Outsource supply chain functions
– Products to be made or stored at various locations
– Modes of transportation
– Information systems
• Supply chain design must support strategic objectives
• Supply chain design decisions are long-term and
expensive to reverse – must take into account market
uncertainty
1 – 16
Supply Chain Planning
• Definition of a set of policies that govern short-
term operations
• Fixed by the supply configuration from strategic
phase

Supply Chain Management: Success Stories
Wal-Mart:
• Walmart operates more than 10,500 stores under 46 banners in 24
countries and e-Commerce websites. Employed approximately 2.3
million associates worldwide (2022)
• One of the largest supply chain in the world - average of $32 billion
in inventory
• Competitive Priority - EDLP
• Highly integrated supply chain – Technology driven SC decisions -
Real-time information sharing
• VMI, CPFR – Strategic Sourcing & Collaboration - Long-term and
high-volume purchases in exchange for the lowest possible prices
• Cross docking
• RFID & Smart Tags
• Automated re-ordering system, etc.

Supply Chain Management: The other side
• Cisco: Cisco wrote off 2.2 $ billion worth of inventory in May 2001.
Biggest write-off in history.
– Responded to high order patterns with higher build rates and substantial
inventory accumulation to facilitate the projected shipping rates & lead time
– Dot-com bubble
• Sony: PlayStation II–a lost opportunity
– SONY could supply only 25% of the potential demand for Christmas market
– Shortage of memory chips
• Apple: In 1995, Overstocking of PowerMac Laptop and understocking of PowerMac PCs
resulted in $1 billion-dollar unfulfilled orders
• KFC: In 2018, switched supply chain provider from Bidvest to DHL who had only one
warehouse at Rugby – centre of UK, against six by Bidvest. Road closure and heavy traffic at
Rugby resulted in no stock of chicken at 604 stores out of 870 stores in UK.

Recent Issues?
• Covid 19
– Supply disruption for most of the products
– Lack of resources - labors, machine hours, etc.
• Semiconductor Shortage
• Suez Canal Blockage
– The Suez Canal handles around 12% of global trade, making it an essential
point of passage. Each day of blockage disrupts more than $9 billion worth of
goods, according to Lloyd's List, which translates to about $400 million per
hour
• Russia Ukraine War
– Ukraine and Russia are the world's 'breadbaskets' producing more than 30%
of the world's wheat and barley, 20% of the global maize produce, and more
than 50% of the world's sunflower oil.
– Sharp rise in the prices of commodities, including petrol and diesel
– Russia, the biggest supplier of crude oil to India

Postponement
• To meet varying customer demands with
minimal inventory in the supply chain
• Aggregate forecasts than individual product
forecasts
• Individual forecasts is required close to the
time of sale when demand is known with
greater accuracy
• Modular Design

• How do we decide about
– the level of inventory to maintain?
– the mode (truck/ ship/ flight) of transportation to
use?
– the location for facilities?
– the suppliers to outsource the manufacturing or
service process?

Competitive and Supply Chain Strategies
• Competitive strategy defines the set of customer
needs a firm seeks to satisfy through its products and
services
• Supply chain strategy determines the nature of
material procurement, transportation of materials,
manufacture of product or creation of service,
distribution of product
1 – 43
Achieving Strategic Fit
• Strategic fit – competitive and supply chain
strategies have aligned goals
• The design of the overall supply chain and the role of
each stage must be aligned to support the supply
chain strategy.
• A company may fail because of a lack of strategic fit
or because its processes and resources do not provide
the capabilities to execute the desired strategy

How is Strategic Fit Achieved?

Step 1: Understanding the Customer and
Supply Chain Uncertainty
• Desired rate of innovation in the product
• Variety of products needed
• Service level required
• Response time (Lead time) customers will
tolerate
• Price of the product
• Quantity of product needed in each lot
1 – 46
Step 1: Understanding the Customer and
Supply Chain Uncertainty
1 – 47
Customer Needs and
Implied Demand Uncertainty
Customer Need Causes Implied Demand Uncertainty to …
Range of quantity required increases Increase because a wider range of the quantity required
implies greater variance in demand
Lead time decreases Increase because there is less time in which to react to
orders
Variety of products required increases Increase because demand per product becomes less
predictable
Number of channels through which Increase because the total customer demand per channel
product may be acquired increases becomes less predictable
Rate of innovation increases Increase because new products tend to have more
uncertain demand
Required service level increases Increase because the firm now has to handle unusual
surges in demand
1 – 48
Implied Uncertainty and Other Attributes
1. Products with uncertain demand are often less mature and have less
direct competition. As a result, margins tend to be high.
2. Forecasting is more accurate when demand has less uncertainty.
3. Increased implied demand uncertainty leads to increased difficulty in
matching supply with demand. For a given product, this dynamic can lead
to either a stockout or an oversupply situation.
4. Markdowns are high for products with greater implied demand uncertainty
because oversupply often results.

Step 3: Achieving Strategic Fit
• Ensure that the degree of
supply chain responsiveness is
consistent with the implied
uncertainty
• Assign roles to different
stages of the supply chain that
ensure the appropriate level of
responsiveness
• Ensure that all functions
maintain consistent strategies
that support the competitive
strategy
• Target high responsiveness for
a supply chain facing high
implied uncertainty and
efficiency for a supply chain
facing low implied uncertainty

not?
