, 1.Introduction to supply chain management
1.1. What starts a supply chain




Supply Chain Management: managing the flow of information, materials and service from
raw material suppliers through factories and warehouses to the end customer.
Reverse flows:

 Goods, quality defect products or obsolete products
 Information, customer feedback
 Packaging material, outer cartons
 Transportation equipment, cages, pallets or containers

Reverse Funds: this is the money that flows back into the supply chain. The supplier’s
supplier wants to be paid for the delivery of tea leaves.
1. Product Supply 2. Customer Demand Which one starts the supply chain?
Example  operating from customer demand, you go to buy some tea but find an
empty supermarket with the question “ Please order your tea here”  They would then
explain that the order is automatically transmitted to the tea bag supplier in India in
order to grow, pick an process the required amount of tea leaves that are filled into tea
bags. Does this work? It probably doesn’t
Commodities (=not differentiated) such as tea, coffee, rice, bread, milk etc. are
more likely to be produced on a product supply basis. In this case product supply
starts the supply chain.
Customer demand driven products: customised products, tailor-made clothes,
customised tools.
