Abstract

As competition from various firms increases locally and globally, Supply Chain Management and ways to increase its efficiency have been the key focus of various organizations. Improving the performance of Supply Chain Management enables a firm to have a competitive advantage over other organizations. This research focuses on three aspects through which the process of Supply Chain can not only be improved but also serve as an edge over competitors. These key areas include Strategic Supply Chain, Supply Chain Metrics and its impact on Performance and Supply Chain Operations and Technology. The study shows how the overall process of Supply Chain Management can be made more effective through the aspects mentioned above and how they serve as tools towards enhancing the process of Supply Chain Management. The outcome of the research shows that a well-planned and established Supply Chain which minimizes the prospects of errors can result in the improvement of the performance of the firm and gives it a competitive edge over other firms.
