Supply chain and purchasing functions are usually tactically focused within most SME’s - and even some larger organisations - with the priority given to ordering and chasing parts. As companies adapt their sales and production strategies to grow, diversify or respond to external changes, it is vital that long term plans are developed and executed that ensure their supply chains are fit for purpose. This can be achieved through Strategic Supply Chain Management.
