The Strategy-Driven Supply Chain by Bram Desmet is a book I've been reading lately and I have to say that it is a probably THE book that should be read by every professional working in Supply Chain. Traditionally, those are organized (or designed) for lowest cost and highest efficiency. This works well for companies focused on operational excellence. But what if our strategy is different? One statement in particular stood out to me, highlighting the need that a supply chain model aligns with the chosen strategic path, rather than defaulting to the cheapest and most efficient option each and every time: "𝗖𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗰 𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗮 𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄 𝗼𝗳 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘅𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘃𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮 𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀, 𝘄𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝗶𝗻 𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗮 𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄 𝗼𝗳 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻, 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗮 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗯𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗲𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀, 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗲𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗳𝗶𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗽𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲.” Are there many companies that have their Supply Chain truly organized in a way that it fits the purpose, the chosen strategy? #supplychain #strategy #management #supplychainmanagement

When you import goods from a country that is not a member of the European Union (EU), customs may impose various charges on the goods. The experienced employees of Logic 4U- Logical Logistics BV are aware of the current charges in various countries and offer you expert advice on handling the processes you face when clearing goods. Before exporting or clearing goods, the exporter must declare them to customs in accordance with the established requirements.

When you hear "channel," do you think 📺 or 📦? What about "forecasting" — is it 🌦 or 📈? And for "visibility," which jumps to mind: 👀 or 🧑‍💻? If you chose any of the second options... you might be a #SupplyChain manager.

For supply chain resilience, you need more control over transport. An end-to-end transport management system (TMS) contributes to this, according to three TMS suppliers during a live webinar by Supply Chain Media BV. Such a system starts with optimization of the transport network and ends with proper financial handling. Innovations such as chatbots and machine learning increase efficiency and reliability. “Even if you don’t run the daily transport operation yourself, a TMS offers several opportunities to increase your grip on transport.” Supply chain managers highly value visibility in logistics, but at the same time find that the effectiveness of their existing processes and systems leaves a lot to be desired. An end-to-end transport management system helps to increase visibility, but does much more than just that. “End-to-end transport management starts with designing an optimal transport network. What is my transport need? And where should I create hubs?” said Michael Boeckle, Vice President Sales Strategy & Alliances at TMS vendor Alpega Group. The next step is to procure transport and draw up transport contracts. Those contracts are the input for the tactical planning process, where routes, modes and frequencies are optimized. “Only then does the execution phase start, starting with planning transport orders. And sometimes that includes buying on the spot market,” stated Böckle, whose company runs a digital transport platform that gives cargo owners access to a network of 80,000 carriers. “That helps make the supply chain robust and resilient. Of course, the majority of orders are handled by the regular carriers, but around 10 to 15% go to the spot market.” Read the complete article about this webinar here: https://lnkd.in/epaKvWwn #supplychain #transportmanagement #tms #resilience Maurits Jongens Rob Hazekamp Yvonne W.
