Supply Chain Management (SCM)
Here, you'll find links to the information and resources you need to make an informed Supply Chain Management (SCM) software selection:
Supply chain management (SCM) systems are used to coordinate the movement of products and services from suppliers to customers (including manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers). These systems are used to manage demand, warehouses, trade logistics, transportation, and other issues concerning facilities, and movement and transformation of materials on their way to customers.

Components of SCM include supply chain optimization, and supply chain event management. SCM also comprises warehouse management, radio frequency identification (RFID), and transportation management.
Other modules of SCM solutions include functionality for international trade and logistics, demand management, supplier relationship management, and service parts planning.
