Cycle View of Supply Chain Processes

The document discusses a cycle view of supply chain processes that classifies all processes into four cycles. These cycles occur between successive stages in a supply chain and help specify member roles and responsibilities. A typical five-stage supply chain contains four cycles, though some supply chains have fewer stages and cycles depending on their structure.

Cycle View of Supply Chain Processes

Classifies all supply chain processes into one of four process cycles Helps specify member roles and responsibilities Five-stage supply chain is comprised of four cycles

The cycle view of supply chain processes classifies all supply chain processes into one of four process cycles. These process cycles occur at the interface between successive stages in the supply chain. The cycle view is useful in supply chain operations because it helps specify member roles and responsibilities (e.g., ownership, investment, operation) for each cycle process activity. The five-stage supply chain is comprised of four cycles. Not every supply chain needs five stages. Some have fewer process cycles such as Dell's direct-to-customer channel in the private sector, and the prime vendor and the performance-based logistics structures in DoD.
