Supply Chain Technology and Systems
There are underlying fundamental principles and concepts that apply to all supply chains, which can be expressed in relatively straightforward models. However, to actually implement them across a real supply chain requires the use of technology across multiple systems. Supply chains have a long history of using technology to improve efficiency and effectiveness. The sheer scale and scope of most supply chains require many distinct systems to interact with each other. Unfortunately, technology is a moving target. It is constantly evolving and improving so that today's technology is outdated within a few years or months. Therefore, the Supply Chain Technology and Systems course was created. It is also among the best online supply chain management courses. Rather than focusing on a specific software system, this business and management course will focus on three aspects: fundamental concepts, core systems, and data analysis.
In the Supply Chain Technology and Systems course, you will start with the introduction of fundamental concepts that are used in all software tools. You will be covered in IT fundamentals, including project management and software processes, data modeling, UML, relational databases, and SQL. No prior programming experience is required. You will be then provided an overview of the main types of supply chain software including ERP, WMS, and TMS systems. You will be also covered with the software selection process and how software upgrade and implementation projects should be organized and managed. Finally, the lecturers will dive into data analysis that is core to all large supply chains.
