WHAT IS SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT?

Supply chain management (SCM) is the oversight of

materials, information, and finances as they move in a
process from supplier to manufacturer to wholesaler to
retailer to consumer.
WHAT IS GREEN SUPPLY CHAIN
MANAGEMENT

“Integrating environment thinking into supply chain

management, including product design, material sourcing
and selection, manufacturing processes, delivery of the
final product to the consumers, and end-of-life
management of the product after its useful life".
SUCCESS STORIES:

Texas Instruments: saves 8 million

Commonwealth Edison: Produced
dollars every year by reducing its
$50 million in financial benefits
transit packaging budget for its
from managing materials and
semiconductor business through
equipments with Life Cycle
source reduction recycling and use

of reusable packaging systems.

Pepsi/Coke: Saved $44 million by

switching from corrugated to
reusable plastic shipping containers
for 1litre and 20 ounce bottles
,conserving 196 million pounds of
corrugated material.
Dow Corning: Saved $2.3 million
by using reconditioned steel steel
drums in 1995.Also conserved 7.8
million pounds of steels.

DESIGNING OF PRODUCTS

An eco friendly design approach leads

1] Less material usage

2] Minimum Operations

3] Proper use of Computational fluid dynamics

tools can used to reduce the exhaust emissions
at designing level
PURCHASE

WHAT IS LOGISTICS ?
“Process of planning, implementing and controlling
the efficient, cost-effective flow of raw materials, in
process inventory, finished goods and related
information from the point of origin to the point of
consumption for the purpose of conforming to
customer requirements”
WHAT IS REVERSE LOGISTICS ?
“Process of planning, implementing and controlling
the efficient, cost-effective flow of raw materials, in-
process inventory, finished goods and related
information from the point of consumption to the
point of origin for the purpose of recapturing value
or proper disposal”
