Abstract

The global industrial landscape is undergoing a paradigm shift, moving away from fragmented production models toward highly integrated and digitally synchronized supply chain operations. Traditionally, Supply Chain Management (SCM) was viewed as a back-office functional cost center focused primarily on “Lean” principles and cost reduction. However, recent globaldisruptions, varying trade dynamics, and the rapid acceleration of Industry 4.0 have redefined “Operations” as the strategic heartbeat of a resilient enterprise. Today, the efficiency of a firm is no longer measured solely by its output, but by its operational agility and its ability to maintain continuity in an increasingly volatile market.
