| (SCM) Supply Chain Management spans all movement and storage of raw materials, work-in-process inventory, and finished goods from point-of-origin to point-of-consumption. Importantly, it also includes coordination and collaboration with channel partners, which can be suppliers, intermediaries, third-party service providers, and customers. Supply Chain Management integrates supply and demand management within and across companies. SCM product vendors and consultants have their own strain of products and solutions but Enterprise PLM product vendors also rely on the same principals and functionality of supply chain management technology.
