  3. E-Supply Chains • Definitions and Concepts supply chain The flow of materials, information, money, and services from raw material suppliers through factories and warehouses to the end customers e-supply chain A supply chain that is managed electronically, usually with Web technologies S. Kungpisdan

  4. Procurement Distribution, Warehousing, Transportation, After-sale service Value chain S. Kungpisdan

  5. E-Supply Chains • Managing Supply Chains • Managing supply chains can be difficult due to the need to coordinate: • Several business partners • Several internal corporate departments • Numerous business processes • Possibly many customers • Information technology provides two types of software solutions: • SCM • ERP S. Kungpisdan

  6. E-Supply Chains e-supply chain management (e-SCM) The collaborative use of technology to enhance B2B processes and improve the operations of supply chain activities as well as the management of supply chains • Speed, agility, real-time control, and customer satisfaction • The success of an e-supply chain depends on: • The ability of all supply chain partners to view partner collaboration as a strategic asset • Information visibility along the entire supply chain • Speed, cost, quality, and customer service • Measure them with the target levels to be achieved • Integrating the supply chain more tightly S. Kungpisdan

  7. mySAP SCM Overview PP/DS: Production Planning/Detailed Scheduling S. Kungpisdan

  8. E-Supply Chains • Activities and Infrastructure of e-SCM • Supply chain replenishment • Integrate production and distribution processes • Use information to reduce inventories, eliminate stock points, support make-to-order manufacturing strategies • E-procurement • Supply chain monitoring and control using RFID • E-logistics • Web-based tech to support material acquisition, warehousing, and transportation processes • Collaborative planning • Buyers and sellers to develop shared demand forecasts and supply plans for how to support demand • Collaborative design and product development • Share product design and development techniques across multiple companies S. Kungpisdan

  9. Procurement Checking and matching invoices Create RFQ Simulate pricing scenario, compare quotations - Create reminder periodically, - Update status of purchase requisitions, quotations, and POs Create PO from requisition or quotation S. Kungpisdan

  10. Sales Order Management Pre-sales Issue invoice Create sales order Check stock & confirm delivery date Issue goods delivery note Warehouse Management System Transportation planning S. Kungpisdan

  11. Supply Chain Collaboration S. Kungpisdan

  12. E-Supply Chains • Infrastructure for e-SCM • Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) • Major tool to facilitate supply chain relationship • Extranets • Support interorganizational communication and collaboration • Intranets • Corporate portals • Gateway for external and internal collaboration • Workflow systems and tools • Systems that manage the flow of information in organizations • Groupware and other collaborative tools • Tools focused on facilitating collaboration and communication between parties S. Kungpisdan

  13. Roadmap • E-Supply Chains • Supply Chain Problems and Solutions • Collaborative Commerce • Collaborative Planning and CPFR • Internal Supply Chain Solutions: Intrabusiness and B2E • Integration along the Supply Chain • Collaborate (Enterprise) Portals S. Kungpisdan

  14. Supply Chain Problems and Solutions • Typical Problems along the Supply Chain • Supply chains can be very long, involving many internal and external partners located in different places • Both materials and information must flow among several entities, and these transfers, especially when manually handled, can be slow and error-prone • Companies can improve their demand forecasting by using IT-supported forecasts, which are done in collaboration with business S. Kungpisdan

  15. Supply Chain Problems and Solutions • Typical Problems along the Supply Chain • A lack of logistics infrastructure causes uncertainties that exist in delivery times • Pure EC companies are likely to have more supply chain problems because they do not have a logistics infrastructure and are forced to use external logistics services • Quality problems with materials and parts can contribute to deficiencies in the supply chain S. Kungpisdan

  16. Supply Chain Problems and Solutions • The Need for Information Sharing along the Supply Chain • A supply chain includes the flow of information to and from all participating entities • Many of supply chain problems are the result of poor flow of information, inaccurate information, untimely information, and so on. S. Kungpisdan

  17. Supply Chain Problems and Solutions • EC Solutions along the Supply Chain • Order taking can be done over the Internet, EDI, EDI/Internet, or an extranet, and may be fully automated • Order fulfillment can become instant if the products can be digitized • Electronic payments can expedite both the order fulfillment cycle and the payment delivery period • Managing risk to avoid supply-chain breakdown • Inventories can be minimized by introducing a build-to-order (on-demand) manufacturing process as well as by providing fast and accurate information to suppliers • Collaborative commerce among members of the supply chain can be done in many areas: • Product design to demand forecasting S. Kungpisdan

  18. Roadmap • E-Supply Chains • Supply Chain Problems and Solutions • Collaborative Commerce • Collaborative Planning and CPFR • Internal Supply Chain Solutions: Intrabusiness and B2E • Integration along the Supply Chain • Collaborate (Enterprise) Portals S. Kungpisdan

  19. Collaborative Commerce collaborative commerce (c-commerce) The use of digital technologies that enable companies to collaboratively plan, design, develop, manage, and research products, services, and innovative EC applications • Implies communications, information sharing, and collaborative planning done electronically through tools e.g. groupware • Fewer stockouts, less exception processing, reduced inventory throughout the supply chain, lower materials costs, increased sales volume, and increased competitive advantage • Results in cost reduction, increased revenue, and better customer retention collaboration hub The central point of control for an e-market. A single c-hub, representing one e-market owner, can host multiple collaboration spaces (c-spaces) in which trading partners use c-enablers to exchange data with the c-hub S. Kungpisdan

  20. CFPR: Collaboration, Planning, Forecasting, and Replenishing VMI: Vendor Managed Inventory S. Kungpisdan

  21. Partners at any point of the network can interact with each other, bypassing traditional partners S. Kungpisdan

  22. Example of E-Collaboration Retailer-Supplier Collaboration: Target Corporation • Target needs to conduct activities with more than 20,000 trading partners. • Target established an extranet-based system with its partners in 1998 S. Kungpisdan

  30. Internal Supply Chain Solutions:Intrabusiness and B2E • The internal parts of the supply chain are related to the value chain and include: • Inbound logistics • Production processes • Outbound logistics • Marketing and sales • Customer services S. Kungpisdan

  31. Internal Supply Chain Solutions:Intrabusiness and B2E intrabusiness EC E-commerce activities conducted within an organization • Intrabusiness can be done: • Between a business and its employees (B2E) • Between units within the business • Among employees in the same business S. Kungpisdan

  32. Internal Supply Chain Solutions:Intrabusiness and B2E business-to-employee (B2E) Intrabusiness EC in which an organization delivers products or services to its employees • Some Representative Applications of B2E include: • Providing field representatives and employees in yards, warehouses, and other non-office places with electronic communication tools • Training and education provided over intranets • Employee use of desktop purchasing • Employee use of the corporate intranet for both corporate and personal use to purchase discounted insurance, travel packages, and tickets to events S. Kungpisdan

  33. Internal Supply Chain Solutions:Intrabusiness and B2E • Activities between Business Units • Transactions between strategic business units can be easily automated and performed over the organization’s intranet • E.g. Ford dealership network. • Activities among Corporate Employees • Many large organizations also provide a system by which employees can collaborate on an individual (sometimes nonbusiness) level • E.g. place classified ads for buying or selling personal products, corporate equipments S. Kungpisdan
