Supply Chain Management is delivery-focused, coordinating the end-to-end flow of an organization’s goods, information and money, and ensuring that an organization successfully turns inputs to outputs in an efficient manner.

Supply chain management is an integrated management of the flow of products, services and information from suppliers, through operations to the final customer.

The Logistics and Supply Chain Management major examines issues such as:

developing trust and long-term partnerships

making trade-offs for the benefit of the entire supply chain 

meeting end-customer requirements

determining the best combinations of transportation modes

strategic outsourcing and procurement

Operations Management professionals provide a critical function for organizations, analyzing data and behaviour to optimize processes, manage resources, and improve profitability and service.

In studying Operations Management, you’ll learn to use computer models, mathematics, process analysis, and business analytics to interpret data and make business decisions. You’ll also develop analytical and problem solving skills that are useful in a wide variety of everyday situations, learning to ask "how," "why," and "why not" to find the most efficient answers to seemingly complicated questions.

Supply chains make or break businesses. Companies beat the competition because they find, track and keep their products moving efficiently. They employ top supply chain managers. How do we know? Our alumni work at General Electric, Toyota, Domtar and other Fortune 500 companies.

As a Supply Chain Operations Management major, you will study the entire supply chain and its components. You'll learn how to:

• Organize resources: labour, material, money and time
• Model supply chains using forecasting and production planning
• Effectively manage scheduling, inventory, logistics and technology
• Make smart decisions, assess risks, manage projects and do trade-off analyses

You learn by seeing current and leading-edge supply chain practices in action. You examine case studies, play simulation games, go on field trips and listen to guest speakers from industry and business.
