Class
Description:
Your
company will not realize all the potential payback on your ERP investment
or the cost of the latest upgrade to your system so you can now use bar
codes unless you begin to manage your supply chain. Your company MUST use
bar codes and electronic documents if you are going to drive down costs.
When you do, you begin to manage your product flow through your supply
chain.
Using
layman’s terms, the class explains supply chain management (SCM) and the
capabilities that either new or existing computer systems must have to
deliver it. But the class also tells what a company must do to prepare to
use the computer systems. Students will learn about simple and even more
advanced SCM systems; what benefits they provide, how they work and what
is necessary to become involved at any level. These are the systems that
facilitate trading partner collaboration based on 100% accurate
information contained in bar codes and passed via e-commerce.
Students will learn why the SCM concept holds so much promise for
many companies and why it is becoming a must for company survival.
