- Synopsis
- Following this description of context, the reading moves to establishing terminology for describing types of supply chains as well as decisions in supply chain management. The author then turns to comparing two broad supply chain designs - physically efficient and market responsive - which are distinguished by product market characteristics and performance requirements. Finally, the reading describes the elements of supply chain design and how different contexts can result in the creation of different supply chain footprints. The supplemental reading explores sources of supply chain risk and methods for mitigating that risk.
