SUPPLY CHAIN SYSTEMS

APICS provided an educational foundation for supply chain understanding but was more geared towards the repetitive and discrete manufacturing industries. They take many parts to make finished goods. Dow and other chemical companies are process oriented (making many products from a few raw materials). Also new software products exploded onto the market for forecasting, MRP and production scheduling. Later SAP came onto the scene with truly global solutions. The value and the power of the concepts and technology became obvious. As a result, Supply Chain Systems was launched to promote the most powerful combination: concepts, policies, standardized procedures, automation and advanced planning tools. We also wanted to help all types of manufacturing companies... Supply Chain Systems, Inc. was founded in 1995 when supply chain concepts were new to business. While working for Dow Chemical it became obvious that there was too much focus on functional, regional and even business unit..
