| Description: | Supply Chain Management is the integrated management of the flow of products, services and information from suppliers, through operations to the final customer. Every business must source or deliver bundles of goods and services. Logisticians are responsible for the management of all domestic and global supply chains. Supply chains comprise multiple organizations - including suppliers, transportation firms, third-party logistics providers, manufacturers, distributors, and retailers. The program examines issues such as developing trust and long-term partnerships, making tradeoffs for the benefit of the entire supply chain, meeting end-customer requirements, determining the best combinations of transportation modes, and strategic outsourcing and procurement. |
