Modern supply chain tools such as the internet of things and sensors linked with Enterprise Resource Planning and Warehouse Management Systems are strengthening Information Technology systems as the backbone of supply chains. This is facilitating communication between systems and organisations throughout the length of the supply chain. However, many companies are struggling to manage the large and growing flow of data which is needed to generate meaningful insights. This requires enterprises to develop consistent data standards that allow integration of systems within and between organisations. A unified treatment of supply chain systems helps achieve sustainable profitability for both enterprises and the entire supply chain. It also facilitates compliance and drives strategy for Corporate Social Responsibility, environmental sustainability and resilient supply chains. The improved supply chain visibility enables the optimisation of all functions simultaneously, including sourcing, manufacturing, warehousing, distribution, retail and reverse logistics, and allows the tracking of key performance indicators in supply chain operations. This unit develops highly marketable skills in managing and analysing data to generate meaningful key performance indicators and insights for nimble and agile decision making. Students gain experience with enterprise resource planning systems and tools needed for system integration.
