From Lean Manufacturing to Lean Supply Chain: A Foundation for Change by Intentia
Abstract : As apparel and textile companies move to outsourcing production—relinquishing direct control in favor of a more cost-effective manufacturing model—a lean supply chain may appear to be the next logical step for further implementing cost and operational improvement. Not so, however. You can’t have a lean supply chain without lean manufacturing. Regardless of whether you or your partners engage in production, lean manufacturing is the lean engine that drives lean supply chain efficiencies. Accordingly, the business requirement for stability in a constantly changing demand environment motivates the fashion industry’s search for lean supply chain management principles and practices. Intentia, in cooperation with industry experts, have written a series of thought leadership white papers on the concept of implementing lean supply chain in the fashion industry. The second of this series, From Lean Manufacturing to Lean Supply Chain explains how lean manufacturing relates to lean supply chain management and where it differs and sometimes conflicts.

Brain of Supply Chain System (4 Pages)
by Ashfaque Ahmed
Jun 19, 2004
Abstract : A software tool called advanced planning and optimization, APO, for short, is used to make a supply chain system cost effective and integrated. Since this tool works on top of all other software tools which are used to plan, monitor, and control supply chain activities and control them, APO can effectively be called the brain of a supply chain system. This article explores advantages of having an APO tool for managing supply chain functions even if a business already has invested in a supply chain management (SCM) system. If a company has not made the investment then the APO tool can be used together with the upcoming SCM system.
