Efficient and effective management of supply chains is observed to be highly critical for organisations across sectors and geographies. Since disruptions, both at the local and global levels, are occurring at a much higher rate in recent times, importance of supply chain as a function has been stressed even more and been significantly invested in to build the necessary capabilities for the future. Given that supply chains are receiving such a high level of attention in practice, it is crucial to train MBA students on the management of supply chains. This module will start by training students on the core concepts of supply chain management that will include different types of supply chains, the role of inventory management, and the relevance of embracing lean and agile strategies. Following this, the module will dive deeper into explaining the interaction between different types of digital technologies and supply chains, covering the nuances of technology integration and management for supply chains. Finally, the module will sensitise students on how supply chains can play a significant role in delivering on the sustainability development goals.
