    Process View of a Supply Chain

    a) Cycle view: processes in a supply chain are divided into a series of cycles, each performed at the interfaces
    between two successive supply chain stages
    b) Push/pull view: processes in a supply chain are divided into two categories depending on whether they are
    executed in response to a customer order (pull) or in anticipation of a customer order (push).

    Cycle View of Supply Chains

     Each cycle occurs at the interface between two


    successive stages
     Customer order cycle (customer-retailer)
     Replenishment cycle (retailer-distributor)
     Manufacturing cycle (distributor-manufacturer)
     Procurement cycle (manufacturer-supplier)
     Cycle view clearly defines processes involved and the
    owners of each process. Specifies the roles and
    responsibilities of each member and the desired
    outcome of each process.

    Customer Order Cycle


     Involves all processes directly involved in receiving and filling the customer’s order
     Customer arrival
     Customer order entry
     Customer order fulfillment
     Customer order receiving

    Replenishment Cycle
     All processes involved in replenishing retailer inventories (retailer is now the customer)
     Retail order trigger
     Retail order entry
     Retail order fulfillment
     Retail order receiving

    Manufacturing Cycle
     All processes involved in replenishing distributor (or retailer) inventory
     Order arrival from the distributor, retailer, or customer
     Production scheduling
     Manufacturing and shipping
     Receiving at the distributor, retailer, or Customer

    Procurement Cycle
     All processes necessary to ensure that materials are available for manufacturing to occur according
    to schedule
     Manufacturer orders components from suppliers to replenish component inventories
     However, component orders can be determined precisely from production schedules (different from
    retailer/distributor orders that are based on uncertain customer demand)
     Important that suppliers be linked to the manufacturer’s production schedule

    Push/Pull View of Supply Chains

     Supply chain processes fall into one of two categories depending on the timing of their execution relative
    to customer demand
     Pull: execution is initiated in response to a customer order (reactive)
     Push: execution is initiated in anticipation of customer orders (speculative)
     Push/pull boundary separates push processes from pull processes
     Useful in considering strategic decisions relating to supply chain design – more global view of how
    supply chain processes relate to customer orders
     Can combine the push/pull and cycle views
     The relative proportion of push and pull processes can have an impact on supply chain performance.
