Overview

Operations and Supply Chain Management

Introduction

Operations and Supply Chain Management involves bringing together organisational resources (people, money, materials, and buildings) for the production of goods or services. Fundamentally, supply chain management is about matching the supply of resources and goods with the demands of the marketplace.

Operations and supply chain managers make sure the processes are smooth, efficient, and sustainable, and are always thinking of ways to make improvements.
