What is Supply Chain Management?

In companies that develop a service or product, there is a supply chain that is used to turn outsourced materials into their final product. There are many steps to developing a product out of raw materials, and in order to produce consistent merchandise effectively, someone needs to manage and regulate each step. A supply chain manager takes the role of making sure that the the individual parts, as well as the overall supply chain is working efficiently and cost effectively. Individuals of this position use various softwares to control inventory, orders, logistics, forecasting and planning, as well as efficiently handling flawed or deficient product. Supply chain managers are largely influential contributors to the success of developed and spawning companies.
