A Supply Chain (SC) consists of all parties involved in fulfilling a customer request. Efficient integration of suppliers, manufacturers, distribution/logistics companies, and retailers/customers is vital in managing SCs so that the right products are delivered to the right place at the right price, quantity, and time. Good management of a SC creates a competitive advantage. Focusing on the planning and execution of SC decisions, this course will help students have a deep understanding of modern SCs, utilize the analytical tools necessary to solve complex SC problems via a capstone course project, and apply managerial levers to pull in order to sustainably improve SC performance.
