2. What is supply chain?
The system of suppliers,manufacturers,transportation, distributors, and vendors that exists to transform raw materials to final products and supply those products to customers.
That portion of supply chain which comes after the manufacturing process is sometimes known as the distribution network.

3. Goal of the SCM
SCM is concerned with the efficient integration of suppliers,factories,warehouses and stores so that merchandise is produced and distributed.
-In the right quantities
-to the right location
-at the right time
In order to
-Minimize total system cost
-Satisfy customer service requirements

4. Supply Chain Drivers Facilities
-places where inventory is stored,assembled or fabricated
-production sites and storage sites
Inventory
-raw materials,WIP,finished goods within a supply chain
-inventory policies

5. Transportation
-moving inventory from point to point in a supply chain
-combinations of transportation modes and routes
Information
-data and analysis regarding inventory,transportation,facilities throughout the supply chain
-potentially the biggest driver of supply chain performance
