Overview: From the executive summary: ‘Lean supply chain management is a must for many companies. It is not just for manufacturers who practice lean management. It is also for non-manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors, and retailers. Lean is how a properly designed and operated supply chain should function. A lean supply chain process has been streamlined to reduce and eliminate waste or non-value added activities to the total supply chain flow and to the products moving within a supply chain. Waste can be measured in time, inventory, and unnecessary costs. Value added activities are the ones that contribute to efficiently placing the final product at the customer.’ The paper throws light on lean supply-chain management.
