Supply Chain Metrics
About this Module
While many factories are run very efficiently these days, their surrounding supply chains may contain severe inefficiencies, leading to higher costs, longer lead times, and lower profits for the manufacturer. This module describes the importance of computing performance metrics and benchmarking against both past performance and industry norms. You will learn how to compute two specific sourcing metrics and three inventory metrics. Finally, you will see how to apply bottleneck analysis to determine flow time in each stage of the supply chain.
