Supply chain management is a set of approaches utilized to efficiently integrate suppliers, manufacturers, warehouses, and stores, so that merchandise is produced and distributed at the right quantities, to the right locations, and at the right time, in order to minimize system wide costs while satisfying service level requirements.
Management beyond the borders of an organization Upstream The upstream business partners are the external organizations that supply products or services to an organization. Downstream The downstream supply chain is the organizations external distribution channels, processes, and functions that the product passes through on its way to the end customer.

Radio frequency identification (RFID) It can send product data from an item to a reader via radio waves Internet Allows companies to communicate with suppliers, customers, shippers and other businesses around the world, instantaneously

Key Issues of SCM Retail Industry


30

Inadequacies in infrastructure such as lack of high quality road networks, power shortages and insufficient storage spaces Indian supply chain is suffering from its inadequacy of infrastructure for warehousing facility

With availability of retail space serving as a key enabler, the current rise in property prices and rentals may render a few retail business models unviable The retail industry loses millions of rupees every year in frauds, thefts and employee pilferage, shop lifting, vendor frauds or inaccurate supervision despite using standard and modern security features 30

Key Issues of SCM Retail Industry

Multiple taxes at the central and state level Lack of clear policies (especially on the entry of foreign retailers) The industry also faces a huge shortage of experts in areas such as supply chain and store management.

The most significant challenge that impedes the development of an efficient and modern retail sector is an underdeveloped supply chain

Case Study :Wal-Mart's SCM System

Wal-Mart pioneered the hub-and-spoke system. The company directly procured from manufacturers, by passing all intermediaries Wal-Mart spends a significant amount of time meeting vendors and understanding their cost structure.

Using EDI for Procurement (It enabled the suppliers to download


purchase orders along with store-to-store sales information relating to their products .) Wal-Mart also made use of a logistics technique called crossdocking (goods were directly picked up from supplier, sorted out and then directly supplied to the customers.)

Case Study - Contd.

Wal-Mart invested heavily in IT and communication systems to effectively track sales and merchandise inventories in stores across the country. Wal-Mart was able to reduce unproductive inventory by allowing stores to manage their own stocks, reducing pack sizes across many product categories, and timely price markdowns.

Instead of cutting the inventory across the board, WalMart made full use of its IT capabilities to make more inventories available in the case of items that customers wanted most, while reducing the overall inventory levels.

Case Study Contd.

Employees at the stores had the Magic Wand, a handheld computer, These helped them to keep track of the inventory in stores, deliveries, and backup merchandise in stock at the distribution centers. The order management and store replenishment of goods were entirely executed with the help of computers through the Point-of-Sales (POS) system.

Case Study Contd.

Wal-Mart had invested approximately $4 billion to build a retail link system(More than 10,000 Wal-Mart retail suppliers used the retail link system to monitor the sales of their goods at stores and replenish inventories.) Retail Link had emerged into an Internet-enabled SCM system whose functions were not confined to inventory management alone, but also covered collaborative planning, forecasting and replenishment (CPFR). In efforts to implement new technologies to reduce costs and increase the efficiency, in July 2003, The company believed that this replacement would reduce its supply chain management costs and enhance efficiency.

Road Ahead for SCM Retail Industry

Goal: Lean, Green and Agile


Consolidation and outsourcing will set the foundations for a leaner supply chain. Multimodal transport and energy-efficient infrastructure will keep it green.

Collaboration between channel partners and integration of various stakeholders will keep the supply chain agile and competitive.

Road Ahead Contd.

Game Changers

Policy Reforms Modernization of Retail and Advent of New Channels Change in Demand Structure Impetus to Infrastructure Empowered through Technology (ERP,WMS,TMS,RFID & Telemetry)

Key Implications

Cold chain will emerge as a hot sector for investment Development of multimodal transport network Shift to a demand-driven supply chain Increased outsourcing and collaboration
