Supply chain management (SCM) covers all material flows from the transformation of raw materials into finished products to their delivery to the consumer and constitutes one of the major expenditures for any manufacturing or sales business. Searching for opportunities to reduce SCM costs requires a thorough approach because, for example, releasing working capital by reducing stock may result in insufficient raw materials for production and involve incongruent financial losses.
