Supply chain operations reference

Résumé
Supply-chain operations reference (SCOR) model is a process reference model developed and endorsed by the Supply-Chain Council as the cross-industry, standard diagnostic tool for supply chain management. The SCOR model describes the business activities associated with satisfying a customer's demand, which include plan, source, make, deliver, return and enable. Use of the model includes analyzing the current state of a company's processes and goals, quantifying operational performance, and comparing company performance to benchmark data. SCOR has developed a set of metrics for supply chain performance, and Supply Chain Council members have formed industry groups to collect best practices information that companies can use to elevate their supply chain models. This reference model enables users to address, improve, and communicate supply chain management practices within and between all interested parties in the extended enterprise. SCOR was developed in 1996 by the management consulting firm PRTM, now part of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC) and AMR Research, now part of Gartner, and endorsed by the Supply-Chain Council, now part of APICS, as the cross-industry de facto standard strategy, performance management, and process improvement diagnostic tool for supply chain management. The model is based on four major "pillars": Process modeling and re-engineering Performance measurements Best practices Skills By describing supply chains using process modeling building blocks, the model can be used to describe supply chains that are very simple or very complex using a common set of definitions. As a result, disparate industries can be linked to describe the depth and breadth of virtually any supply chain. SCOR is based on six distinct management processes: Plan, Source, Make, Deliver, Return, and Enable. Plan – Processes that balance aggregate demand and supply to develop a course of action which best meets sourcing, production, and delivery requirements. Source – Processes that procure goods and services to meet planned or actual demand.
