What's inside Chapter 3 of the Supply Chain Revolution? It's all about Mastering the Fundamentals!

Mastering the Fundamentals

The Bedrock of Supply Chain Management



Introduction to Mastering SCM Fundamentals

  • Bridge the gap between the classroom and application
  • Master the fundamentals before moving on:
    • Inventory Accuracy
    • Purchase Order Acknowledgements
    • Etc.
  • Learning the importance of crawling, walking and running.



Art Koch's Three "Fs" of Supply Chain Management

  • The "Three Fs" model: People and Process Foundation, Structural Framework, and Financial Focal Point.
  • The model serves as a closed-loop problem resolution to apply the plan-do-check-act process effectively.



Transforming SCM with Advanced Training and Core Competencies

  • The importance of a rock-solid foundation in achieving long-term success in supply chain management.
  • The significance of ongoing training and education in SCM to handle more complex challenges.
  • The critical role of professionalism in SCM for achieving strategic objectives and sustainable improvements.



Real-World Application and Success Stories

  • When getting the fundamentals right you will look like a genius.
  • Avoid chasing "silver bullet" solutions.



Call to Action: Implementing SCM Excellence

  • Evaluation of the functional foundation:
  1. Are the relevant few KPIs in place?
  2. Are the functions siloed or do they "play" well together?
  3. Is SCM considered procurement, a singular department? Or a philosophical mission led by degreed professionals within various operational functions?
  4. Etc.
