About this event

This course is brought to you by the Center for Supply Chain Excellence at Saint Louis University Chaifetz School of Business, and it is facilitated by Professor Ik-Whan Kwon, Ph.D.

Supply chain management (SCM) is the management of a network of interconnected businesses involved in the provision of product and service packages required by the end customers in a supply chain. Supply chain management spans all movement and storage of raw materials, work-in-process inventory, and finished goods from point of origin to point of consumption. SCM draws heavily from the areas of operations management, logistics, procurement, and information technology while striving for an integrated approach. This course brings into consideration the impact of supply chain management on the performance of the firm's financial results.
