Overview: Supply chain event management applications, although designed to be umbrella systems, should actually be selected based on their ability to handle specific needs. Supply Chain Event Management(SCEM) implies the proper detection, reporting, and reaction to issues that arise in the supply chain. Since no two supply chains are identical, then by implication, no two SCEM systems should be identical. Since companies have disparate priorities and issues, the events that are a priority for individual companies to manage vary. Ideally, the SCEM system would contain an abstract set of features and functions that can be profiled as needed to the specific situation being monitored. The paper also focuses on the SCEM status reports and logs anomalies, which are used by a business intelligence module to assess compliance, analyze and evaluate trends, and pinpoint service failures and supply chain bottlenecks.
