Indian Institute of Management Bangalore
Executive Education Programme
Supply Chain Management
Programme Director: Professor Jishnu Hazra
Venue: IIMB Campus
Dates: 8 -10 Sept, 2008
Programme Objective:
In today’s business world companies are exploring ways to become responsive and cost-effective simultaneously. The objective of this programme is to understand the structure of supply chains, and what causes some to succeed and others to fail in delivering value to the customer. The course will introduce analytical tools to design appropriate supply chain based on the competitive nature of the industry.
The cost of managing the supply chain is substantial and sometimes as high as 40% of the total value-added in certain industries. A marginal reduction in the cost of operating the supply chain could lead to a more competitive pricing of products resulting in higher market share. Participants, through case studies, will identify inefficiencies in supply chain networks and propose methods of improving the performance. This exercise will also involve understanding how inventory placement in the network affects responsiveness, cost and service.
Programme contents:
In recent years firms in many industries have developed innovative techniques to improve the efficiency of the supply chain. Information technology is playing an important role in today’s business processes. In this context the role of electronic commerce in the future of supply chain will be addressed in the programme. In addition, managing product variety and the impact of product design on supply chain performance will be studied. Products with short life cycle and third-party logistics will also be covered. Finally, performance metrics to evaluate and re-engineer supply chain will be discussed.
