8 Value Chain A model that considers how supply chain activities can add value to products and services delivered to the customer. Benefits for the customer are created by reducing cost and adding value to customers: within each element of the value chain such as procurement, manufacture, sales and distribution; at the interface between elements of the value chain such as between sales and distribution. In equation form this is: Value = (Benefit of each VC activity – Its cost) + (Benefit of each interface between VC activities – Its cost)

11 Value Network Deise et al. (2000) describe value network management as: “the process of effectively deciding what to outsource in a constraint-based, real-time environment based on fluctuation” I.E. when a computer company outsources their information systems to the delivery company (Post Danmark)
