全球化經濟趨勢潮流下，競爭態勢漸趨激烈，由於資訊網路與交通運輸的進步，商業活動在地域上的限制以大幅縮小，使得企業正面臨產品生命週期縮短、交期緊迫、原物料與產品迅速配送等挑戰。在此態勢下，企業的生存關鍵不能再憑藉個別的孤軍奮鬥，而更強調企業網路的協同合作機制，逐漸行程了供應鏈間的競爭趨勢。因此，如何促成供應鏈的串聯協同，已是國內企業的重要課題。
近年來全球經濟發展變化愈趨不可預測，然而國際貿易的發展和國際物流需求仍持續成長。跨國企業對於全球運籌的擘劃，更加重視，使得全球運籌與國際物流管理人才成為熱門需求。
《 課程簡介 -- English 》
Supply Chain Management involves the management of materials, information and financial flows in a network of manufacturers, suppliers, distributors and customers.
Supply chain management flows can be divided into three main flows:
1.The product flow
2.The information flow
3.The finances flow
The product flow includes the movement of goods from a supplier to a customer, as well as any customer returns or service needs. The information flow involves transmitting ordersand updating the status of delivery. The financial flow consists of credit terms, payment schedules, and consignment and title ownership arrangements.
An effective and efficient supply chain will reduce costs and ultimately give a business its competitive edge.
