Supply Chain Management & Analytics

1.5 credits · Graduate

Supply chains(SCs) are at the heart of the economy and development; almost all products and services emerge from the productive transformation through a network of interdependent processes. In short, an SC consists of all parties involved in fulfilling a customer request. Efficient integration of suppliers, manufacturers, distribution/logistics companies, and retailers/customers is vital in managing SCs so that the right products with the right information are delivered to the right place/customer at the right quantity, the right price, the right condition, and at the right time. Therefore, good management of an SC facilitates levers to pull to improve SC performance and create a competitive advantage sustainably. Focusing on the planning and execution of SC data- driven decisions from a sustainability perspective, this course will help students have a deep understanding of SCs, acquire the analytical tools necessary to solve complex SC problems, and appreciate the value of data analytics to gain insights into managing SC sustainably.
