Supply Chain Models
There are several different supply chain modeling options. The model a firm chooses will depend on how it is set up and its unique requirements. Below are a few examples:
Fast Chain Model
Companies that sell products based on the newest trends will benefit the most from this model. Businesses that employ this approach must launch their items rapidly to capitalize on the current craze. From concept to prototype to manufacturing to consumer, they must move quickly. One sector that makes use of this supply chain paradigm is fast fashion.
Continuous Flow Model
The conventional supply chain approach is effective for businesses that manufacture similar items with little variation. The goods ought to be highly sought-after and need little to no remodeling. Because of the lack of variation, managers may shorten manufacturing times and maintain strict inventory management. To avoid production bottlenecks, managers must refill raw materials in a continuous flow paradigm.
Flexible Model
Businesses that produce seasonal or holiday goods frequently employ the flexible model. These businesses have spikes in product demand followed by periods of low or no demand. The adaptable model guarantees they can ramp up rapidly to start production and shut down successfully as soon as demand declines. However, they must accurately predict their need for labor, inventories, and raw supplies to be profitable.
