Description

Course IntroductionIn a world of interconnected economies, supply chain management is the backbone of global business success. This course takes you on a journey through the critical aspects of supply chain strategy, network design, and planning analysis. Learn to manage complex supply chains, assess global markets, and design logistics networks that drive business performance. Using a real-world case study, this course blends theory with practice to empower professionals and aspiring supply chain managers.Section-Wise Curriculum OverviewSection 1: IntroductionThis foundational section introduces students to the case study that anchors the course. It explores key definitions, complements, and their significance in supply chain management, providing context for the learning journey ahead.Section 2: Company DescriptionLearn about the company central to the case study. This section covers its overview, vision and mission, IRIC (Innovate, Realize, Implement, Compete) milestones, objectives, and key observations, creating a framework for understanding supply chain challenges.Section 3: Pre-SCLR ETHOSExamine the foundational elements of the SCLR (Supply Chain Leadership and Responsibility) strategy. Topics include geographical assessment profiles, PESTLE analysis for external factors, and triad analysis to evaluate competitive positioning.Section 4: Global Supply ChainsDive into the complexities of global supply chains. Topics include complements of supply chain leadership and development (SCLD), global supply chain integration, global economies, and sourcing strategies essential for competitiveness in a globalized market.Section 5: Network DesignMaster the principles of designing supply chain networks. This section covers enterprise facility networks, warehouse requirements, systems concepts, total cost integration, and strategies for formulating robust logistical solutions.Section 6: Planning AnalysisFocus on planning and problem-solving methodologies. Students will learn to define problems, collect and analyze data, and formulate actionable recommendations. The emphasis is on creating practical solutions and implementing them effectively.Section 7: Wrap UpConclude the course with evaluation and performance analysis techniques. This section emphasizes course correction, impact analysis, and aligning objectives with outcomes to ensure sustained supply chain efficiency.ConclusionBy the end of this course, students will have a deep understanding of supply chain management, from strategy formulation to performance evaluation. Armed with knowledge and practical tools, they will be prepared to tackle challenges in global supply chain environments confidently.
