Supply Chain Optimization model

A supply chain is optimized when it is meeting or exceeding its customer service objectives and it is operating at minimal carbon footprint and minimal total supply chain costs.

Minimal Total Supply Chain Cost:

Supply Chain Concept from the field to the consumerOur view of a supply chain starts with raw materials, usually extracted from the earth, and ends with the ultimate consumption of a finished product by the end consumer (people like you and I). Utilizing this view of a supply chain, costs can be divided into the following major components:

  • Manufacturing (to build the product)
  • Packaging (to hold the product)
  • Transportation (to move the product)
  • Inventory Carrying Costs (to store the product)

Minimal Carbon Footprint:

Organization's can no longer ignore their impact on the environment. Fortunately, it is possible to simultaneously reduce carbon emissions and total supply chain costs!
