Supply Chain Management and Logistics Research at SystemsLab

Typical supply chain systems consist of customers, retailers, distributors, warehouses, production facilities, and suppliers that can be represented as nodes in a highly integrated network. An efficient supply chain integrates activities such as product design, demand forecasting, production/sourcing, production planning and scheduling, warehousing, transportation, fulfillment of orders and customer service in a concise manner.

These activities have effects on two performance indicators of supply chains: economic and environmental.
