Supply chain management (SCM) is the management of a network of interconnected businesses involved in the ultimate provision of product and service packages required by end customers (Harland, 1996). Supply Chain Management spans all movement and storage of raw materials, work-in-process inventory, and finished goods from point-of-origin to point-of-consumption (supply chain).
A key component of the mySAP.com Supply Chain Management solution, the SAP Advanced Planner and Optimizer (SAP APO) provides the complete toolset needed to plan and optimize supply chain processes at the strategic, tactical and operational planning levels.
