Supply Chain Management

Modern Supply Chain Management (SCM) concepts address important
root-causes of current limitations in logistics networks. Efficient built-to-
order strategies and short time to delivery goals require fast, flexible and
reliable supply networks. In this context inter- company visibility and
transparency of relevant data play a central role. The promising potential
of modern SCM concepts is attracting the attention of the whole automotive
industry. Modern SCM is targeting to overcome the local, company-
centric view by looking from a global perspective on value adding networks.
