Description

Number of Companies has spent a decade reconstructing their core business process for efficiency. The objective has been to straighten out the kinks in supply chain-from suppliers through incoming logistics through work-in-progress through outbound logistics and customer fulfilment (Hamel, 2002). In this parlance Dell has been remarkable in its integration of Supply Chain. From an outside view, Dell computer delivery process appears both short and slick.
As defined by Mentzer (2001) Supply Chain Management is systematic, strategic coordination of the traditional business functions within a particular company and across business with supply chain, for the purposes of improving the long-term performance of the individual companies and the supply chain as whole. For a better understanding Supply chain can be defined in layman terms as something which encompasses all activities connected with the flow of materials, services and information through processing of product/ services facilities to end customer.
In this context Dell adaptation to changing time for the need of SC has been quite noticeable and it is one such company among very few to sustain it without any hiccup.
