ENTSCHEIDENDER WETTBEWERBSFAKTOR: EIN STABILES SUPPLY CHAIN NETZWERK
Globale Lieferketten werden aktuell durch anhaltende Pandemieherausforderungen und den Krieg in der Ukraine massiv gestört.
Die globalen Lieferketten sind in den letzten zwei Jahren unter extremen Druck geraten. Die anhaltende Corona Pandemie und der Angriffskrieg auf die Ukraine verschärfen die bestehenden Spannungen in den Lieferketten. Überlastete Grenzübergänge, blockierte Routen sowie Energie- und Rohstoffknappheit erhöhen die Komplexität und die Kostenstrukturen. Betriebsunterbrechungen durch teilweise fehlende Fachkräfte und Covid bedingten Krankheitsausfälle beeinträchtigen den wirtschaftlichen Erfolg. Die aktuellen Prognosen lassen keine baldige Besserung erwarten.
Lieferengpässe sind derzeit für insgesamt 77% der Unternehmen im Mittelstand ein Problem.
Mögliche Auswirkungen sind z. B. erhöhte Lieferzeiten, Materialknappheit oder anhaltende Preissteigerungen.

The main task and central goal of supply chain network management: to make the entire network and the cooperation between the individual network partners more responsive, robust and efficient and thus improve the performance of the network.
Challenges
- Disrupted value streams and supply chains
- Lack of transparency in supply chains and data
- Inefficient production and material flow
- Increasing transport-, material costs & stocks
- Poor collaboration within the network
Results

Stabilizing the network requires cross-functional work in four dimensions
To meet these requirements, supply chain network management focuses on four key dimensions: operating model, network design, information system, and planning & control.
1. Operating Model
A supply chain network must be managed, controlled and strategically developed across the board.
2. Network Design
deals with the configuration of all the different players along the value chain – end-to-end.
3. Information System & Management
The IT systems as business enablers ensure efficiency and transparency in the network while managing digitized processes, digital networking, and business intelligence.
4. Planning & Control
has the task of supporting all components in the network with the appropriate planning processes and establishing effective controlling.
