Part 9 of 12 The moment a customer places an order through a simple business process dozens if not hundreds of other business processes are set into action. Like miniature cells that make up the entire body, business processes are the small working pieces that together encompass the supply chain. Thus supply chain managers are tasked with making every business process within a supply chain effective, efficient, and adaptable. Through this video youll begin to learn why companies and supply chains are dependent on well-designed and well-managed business processes to expand and grow in a healthy manner.
This is the 9th installment in Arizona State University's twelve-part introduction to supply chain management video series developed by Eddie Davila, Jeff Hough, Randy Cates, Dawn Feldman, Dan Ichikawa, Ian Schmoel, and Matt Hardy. ASU, the W. P. Carey School of Business, and the Supply Chain Management Department are proud and happy to share this video series with supply chain management departments, supply chain instructors, career specialists in high schools and universities, as well as industry leaders in an effort to inspire a new generation of supply chain management professionals across the country and around the world.
