Supply Chain Management (SCM) is the process of strategically managing flows of goods, services, finance, and knowledge, along with relationships within and among organizations, to realize greater economic value through:

• Supporting enterprise strategic objectives
• Contributing to the achievement of strategic competitiveness of the enterprise
• Contributing to the enhancement of the competitive advantage of the enterprise
• Enhancing customer satisfaction

The goal of this module is to have candidates appreciate the big picture and recognize the critical, strategic, and dynamic nature of SCM.  This module develops the functional and institutional aspects of SCM and lays the foundation for the remaining modules and workshops in the SCMP program.

Upon completion of this module candidates should be able to:

• Analyze, discuss, and present case reports.
• Apply mapping tools to describe and analyze supply chains.
• Apply analytical modules to clarify SCM strategy and link supply chain performance to return on assets (ROA) and return on investment (ROI).
• Recognize cycle time reduction (CTR) opportunities.
• Make inter-organizational information systems (IOIS) recommendations.
• Assess supply chain risk.
• Audit supply chains in terms of social responsibility.

FAQ

What is asynchronous learning?

Asynchronous learning is a form of online self-study. While it is self-study, there are submission deadlines and due dates to follow. Learners will not have live scheduled meetings or classes, but will participate via our learning management system, Brightspace (D2L). Learners will have access to an instructor throughout the course.

What is synchronous learning?

Synchronous learning includes weekly virtual instructor led classes. Learners will have live, scheduled classes via Zoom with the instructor and fellow classmates. This format is designed for those looking for an interactive learning experience and to network with other participants. Participants are expected to remain up to date with the deadlines provided. Please note the time zone when you register for this format.
