The Identification of Enterprise System Limitations within Manufacturing Supply Chains
This primary purpose of this paper is to develop improved insights into common enterprise systems limitations, with specific regard to industrial supply chain management co-ordination and control. Enterprise or ERP systems are now routinely used within many SMEs and can be seen to offer many distinct functional advantages, but barriers to holistic business support and market growth still remain...
متن کاملStrategic Design of Robust Global Supply Chains under Uncertainty
We will present a model for the strategic design of the global supply chain of an individual company. The model presented is a multi-period, two-stage stochastic, multi-country, multi-product, multi-echelon formulation based on forecasted exchange rates and with bill of materials (BOM) flow conservation. The objective is maximization of the expected value of the time-discounted world-wide after...
متن کاملTransaction Costs in Global Supply Chains of Manufacturing Companies
Outsourcing has advanced to an important measure that is applied broadly in operations management. Nowadays, suppliers of manufacturing companies do not only provide direct material like raw material and operational supplements but offer components and advanced modules incurring many value-adding stages.

متن کاملDynamic Modelling of Strategic Supply Chains
The high level of complexity connected with the modelling of supplier networks often diminishes the practical impact of supply chain management approaches. Furthermore, many of those approaches primarily focus on operative tasks. This paper proposes a concept for the dynamic modelling of supply chains. In addition, the business domain of strategic supply chain management is introduced, extendin...

While recruitment efforts benefit from a larger global footprint, the supply chain has to work harder at getting the right drug supply, to the right place, at the right time. Certain clinical trial supply chains, especially those supplying biologics, have a combina...
