Decisions relate to the flow of information, product and funds. The difference betweencategories depends upon the frequency of each decision and the time frame over which it has an impact. During the supply chain strategy phase, a companydetermines what the chain ' s configurations will be, how resources will beallocated, and what processes each stage will perform. This will establish thestructure of the supply chain for several years. Supply chain planning deals withdecisions with a time frame from 3 months up to a year. The planning phase must work within the constraints established in the strategy phase. Planning decisionsinclude which markets to supply from which locations, subcontracting ofmanufacturing, inventory policies and timing and size of marketing promotions.The supply chain operation phase operates on a weekly or daily time horizon and deals with decisions concerning individual customer orders.Difficulty: Hard2. Describe the cycle view of the processes within a supply chain.Answer: The cycle view divides the supply chain into a series of 4 cycles between the 5 different stages of a supply chain. The cycles are the customer order cycle,replenishment cycle, manufacturing cycle and procurement cycle. The customerorder cycle occurs at the customer/retailer interface and includes all processesdirectly involved in receiving and filling the customer. The replenishment cycleoccurs at the retailer/distributor interface and includes all processes involved inreplenishing retailer inventory. The manufacturing cycle typically occurs at thedistributor/manufacturer (or retailer/manufacturer) interface and includes allprocesses involved in replenishing distributor (or retailer) inventory. Theprocurement cycle occurs at the manufacturer/supplier interface and includes allprocesses necessary to ensure that the materials are available for manufacturing according to schedule.Difficulty: Moderate3. Explain the push/pull view of the processes within a supply chain.Answer: The push/pull view of the supply chain divides supply chain processesinto two categories based on whether they are executed in response to acustomer order or in anticipation of customer orders. Pull processes are initiatedin response to a customer order. Push processes are initiated and performed inanticipation of customer orders. The push/pull boundary separates pushprocesses from pull processes. This view is very useful when consideringstrategic decisions relating to supply chain design, because it forces a moreglobal consideration of supply chain processes as they relate to the customer.Difficulty: Moderate4. Explain the three macro processes within a supply chain.Answer: All processes within a supply chain can be classified into three macroprocesses which are Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Internal Supply Chain Management (ISCM), and Supplier Relationship Management (SRM).Customer Relationship Management (CRM) includes all processes that focus onthe interface between the firm and its customers such as marketing, sales, callcenter management and order management. Internal Supply Chain Management (ISCM) includes all processes that are internal to the firm such as preparation ofdemand and supply plans, preparation of inventory management policies, orderfulfillment and planning of capacity. Supplier Relationship Management (SRM)includes all processes that focus on the interface between a firm and its suppliers such as evaluation and selection of suppliers, negotiation of supply terms andcommunication regarding new products and orders.Difficulty: Moderate5. Explain why supply chain flows are important.Answer: Supply chain flows are important, because there is a close connectionbetween the design and management of supply chain flows (product, information, and cash) and the success of a supply chain. The success of many companiescan be directly traced to the design and management of an appropriate supplychain. The failure of many businesses can be linked directly to their inability toeffectively design and manage supply chain flows.Difficulty: Moderate。
