What is the Value in your Supply Chain A PI Q and A

| Member Question:
What is the difference between Supply Chain and Value Chain?
My Response:
To begin, the reference to supply or “value” chain is a misnomer in that it implies a sequential architecture. This is a term that is on its way out as an organization’s supply “practice” is actually centered on the synchronization of diverse stakeholders sometimes spanning multiple supply networks. This is an important distinction given the impact that real-world synchronization has on theories such as value chains.
That said the concept of the value chain was first introduced by Michael Porter in 1985 in his book, Competitive Advantage: Creating and Sustaining Superior Performance.

Spanish Retailer, Zara Decides to Form a Joint Venture with the TATAs, rather than franchise
| |
| Inditex, the Spanish retailer behind Zara, expects to open its first stores in New Delhi, Mumbai and other Indian cities next year. Inditex, the Spanish retailer behind Zara, is to set up shop in India in partnership with Tata, the conglomerate, as it presses on with an aggressive expansion plan despite the global downturn. Europe's largest clothing chain is betting that its "fast fashion" model can be transposed to the subcontinent. The group, which already has outlets in 73 countries, from Russia to Guatemala, prides itself on being able to design, manufacture and deliver new lines in just two weeks, compared to an industry average of nine months. |
