In recent decades, firms have used supply chain management (SCM) primarily for capturing value in supply networks. However, SCM is becoming a prominent means of value creation, especially in commoditized markets where there is less scope for product innovation.
In particular, as supply chains become more fragmented, they are exposed to risks associated with complex information flows and trading partner incentive misalignments. By mitigating or even removing these risks through process innovation, supply chain managers can create value for their customers.
