Implementation of OM Scope in SMC
To respond to this topic, I choose the "Managing Inventories” as one of

the scopes of operations management.
• Managing inventories involve coordinating the flow of goods and

information from suppliers to manufacturers, distributors, retailers,
and ultimately, to the end customer.
• As a part of effective inventory management, my organization
Social Marketing Company (SMC) aims to balance the costs
associated with holding inventory against the benefits of having
products available when and where they are needed.

Changes Occurred in ‘ABC’ Organization by Applying
a scope of Operations Management - Forecasting
Moving Average
First, they used moving average. It is the Technique that averages a number of recent
actual values, updated as new values become available. From the method, they got a result
Weighted Moving Average

Then they used weighted moving average. Which is more recent values in a series are
given more weight in computing the forecast.
Exponential Smoothing
Lastly, they used exponential smoothing. A Weighted averaging method based on previous
forecast plus a percentage of the forecast error.
Improvement
• ABC Company found drastic improvements in different phases like: Accounting
finance, MIS, supply chain, operations, marketing, HR etc.
• Now ABC can engage minimum resources to extract maximum output and for this, e
profit margin of ABC has reached a new level.

holding costs for unsold stock.
