As humans, everyday we live involves one form of trading or the other. This actually puts us at risks because we often do not get what we bargain for. It could be in form of obtaining goods of lesser quality or excessive delays on the part of logistics companies. This goes a long way to highlight the state of decay of our supply chain management system. The phrase “Supply Chain Management" can simply be defined as the management of the flow of goods and services from the manufacturer to the final consumer. The goal of supply chain management as a whole is to coordinate all all activities from the obtaining of raw materials and to the delivery of finished goods to the final consumers while minimizing cost and keeping conflict to the barest minimum. This process might actually sound simple, but getting it right is where the problem lies.
I will like to describe a scenario which should serve as a eye opener on the need for an improved supply chain management system. This event occurred in the South-western part of Nigeria in the year 1996. Throughout the month of September, about 16 deaths were recorded after consuming beans, which earned the beans its nickname, ‘killer beans’. This led to widespread fear of beans consumption throughout the whole nation which greatly depleted beans sales in general. Like with every other sector in the country, all we got from the Federal Ministry of Health was silence which greatly deepened the puzzle. The truth of the matter was that no one could tell where the beans originated from or how it got contaminated. This goes a long way to show the flaws with the existing supply chain management systems as it fails to address such concerns. The existing systems do not provide for monitoring of goods along the supply chain. The issue with this is that there is usually no way to understand the stage at which a problem occurred or even how to solve it if need be.
Having convinced you on the need for improved supply chain management, I will like to introduce a project which could have tremendous positive effect on the state of supply chain management.
