Inhaltsangabe:Einleitung: Unternehmen bewegen sich heutzutage in einem Spannungsfeld aus gestiegenen Anforderungen auf der Kundenebene, verkürzten Produktlebenszyklen und gleichzeitig zunehmendem Wettbewerb und Kostendruck auf globalen Märkten. Weiter geprägt wird die aktuelle und zukünftige Politik der Unternehmen durch Einflussgrößen wie einen nach wie vor steigend zu erwartenden Einfluss des E-Commerce und einen sich weiter verstärkenden Trend zum Outsourcing und zur Besinnung auf die jeweiligen Kernkompetenzen des eigenen Unternehmens. Dies führt zunehmend zu einer Entstehung und einer steigenden Bedeutung von Unternehmensnetzwerken in Form von Kooperationen und Partnerschaften. Eine Optimierung der Zulieferer-Abnehmer-Beziehungen in Bezug auf die Ressourcen-, Material-, Informations- und Wertflüsse bietet den Aufbau von Wettbewerbsvorteilen hinsichtlich der Schnelligkeit, Flexibilität, Wirtschaftlichkeit und Planungssicherheit im eigenen Wertschöpfungsprozess und die Sicherung und Steigerung zukünftiger Unternehmenserfolge. Kooperative Unternehmensnetzwerke wie z.B. die Supply Chain sind mögliche Ausprägungen dieser Entwicklung. Durch Supply Chains sollen Flexibilisierungs- und Effizienzsteigerungspotentiale aufgedeckt, geschaffen und mittels einer unternehmensübergreifenden Optimierung der Wertschöpfungsprozesse ausgeschöpft werden. Damit bezieht sich das Supply Chain Management sowohl auf die Prozesse einer Unternehmung selbst als auch auf ihre Vernetzung mit ihrer Umwelt im Gegensatz zu dem traditionellen Verständnis von Unternehmen als geschlossener Einheit mit definierten Geschäftsbeziehungen zu Kunden und Lieferanten und der damit verbundenen isolierten, unternehmensinternen Sicht auf die Geschäftsprozesse. In der Mehrzahl der Publikationen zum Supply Chain Management liegt der Fokus vor allem auf der Betrachtung der Material- und Informationsflüsse. Vernachlässigt wird dabei die Berücksichtigung logistikinduzierter Finanzprozesse. Hierbei entstehen Kosten im Finanzbereich der Unternehmen, die unmittelbar durch logistische Entscheidungen beeinflusst werden. Geht man aus vom übergeordneten Ziel des Supply Chain Managements, eine Integration sämtlicher (über-)betrieblicher Funktionen zu schaffen, endet ein integriertes Supply Chain Management nicht mit der physischen Auslieferung an den Abnehmer, sondern erst mit dem Zahlungsstrom vom Kunden an das Unternehmen und weiter von diesem an seinen Lieferanten. Erst jetzt ist dem Unternehmen [...]

An introduction to financial tools and concepts from an operations perspective, addressing finance/operations trade-offs and explaining financial accounting, working capital, investment analysis, and more. Students and practitioners in engineering and related areas often lack the basic understanding of financial tools and concepts necessary for a career in operations or supply chain management. This book offers an introduction to finance fundamentals from an operations perspective, enabling operations and supply chain professionals to develop the skills necessary for interacting with finance people at a practical level and for making sound decisions when confronted by tradeoffs between operations and finance. Readers will learn about the essentials of financial statements, valuation tools, and managerial accounting. The book first discusses financial accounting, explaining how to create and interpret balance sheets, income statements, and cash flow statements, and introduces the idea of operating working capital—a key concept developed in subsequent chapters. The book then covers financial forecasting, addressing such topics as sustainable growth and the liquidity/profitability tradeoff; concepts in managerial accounting, including variable versus fixed costs, direct versus indirect costs, and contribution margin; tools for investment analysis, including net present value and internal rate of return; creation of value through operating working capital, inventory management, payables, receivables, and cash; and such strategic and tactical tradeoffs as offshoring versus local and centralizing versus decentralizing. The book can be used in undergraduate and graduate courses and as a reference for professionals. No previous knowledge of finance or accounting is required.

Supply Chain Strategy and Financial Metrics is a step-by-step guide to balancing the triangle of service, cost and cash which is the essence of supply chain management. Supply chains have become increasingly strategy-driven, and this Supply Chain Triangle approach puts the supply chain at the heart of the strategy discussion instead of seeing it as a result. Supply Chain Strategy and Financial Metrics fully reflects the 'inventory' or 'working capital' angle and examines the optimisation of the supply chain and Return on Capital Employed. Including case studies of Barco, Casio and a selection of food retail companies, this book covers building a strategy-driven KPI dashboard, target setting and financial benchmarking. Regular examples and diagrams illustrate how different types of strategies lead to different trade-offs in the Supply Chain Triangle. This ground-breaking text links supply chain, strategy and finance through financial metrics, therefore creating value for the shareholder. Online supporting resources include worksheets covering basic financial concepts such as cash flow and working capital, with example data sets and guidelines/exercises to make it interactive.

Financing the End-to-End Supply Chain provides readers with a real insight into the increasingly important area of supply chain finance. It demonstrates the importance of the strategic relationship between the physical supply of goods and services and the associated financial flows. The book provides a clear introduction, demonstrating the importance of the strategic relationship between supply chain and financial communities within an organization. It contains vital information on how supply chain finance is operationalised and put into place. It is written in a user-friendly style, starting with the purchasing function, and linking together treasury, banking, supply chain, systems, IT, and key stakeholders. Financing the End-to-End Supply Chain will help senior supply chain and procurement practitioners to build collaboration, improve relationships and enhance trust between supply chain partners. With its combination of theory and practice it tackles vital issues including physical, information and financial flows, and tailoring supply chain finance to individual organisations' circumstances. Recognising that supply chain finance means different things in different countries, the authors also consider various initiatives to harmonize and develop cross-border financing from the World Bank and other institutions, as well as including an agenda for national and international policy makers. Financing the End-to-End Supply Chain offers a mix of academic and industrial expertise and is written by three authors who are experts in the field. The book contains ground-breaking research and data from the Cranfield School of Management.

Supply Chain Finance is a contributed book looking at the two major perspectives of managing finance across the supply chain. The first is more short-term, focused on accounts payables and receivables. The second is a more overarching perspective, focused on working capital optimization in terms of inventory and asset management. It includes chapters from a variety of research perspectives, as well as from business and policymakers. The authors look at the benefits of the supply chain finance approach including reduction of working capital, access to more funding at lower costs, risk reduction, as well as an increase of trust, commitment, and profitability through the chain. Supply Chain Finance includes theory as well as practical case studies addressing advances in the area of supply chain finance. The editors and contributors look at how to design and implement supply chain finance in supply chains and examine what the future holds for this important area. Online supporting resources include self-test multiple-choice and essay questions for each chapter.

In a company ecosystem the supply chain manager is tasked with duties and objectives primarily aimed at controlling and reducing costs, while optimizing the material flows. Yet, in many organizations, common perception limits supply chain management to product logistics, materials handling and warehouse management. The supply chain manager must learn how to communicate the results of his work to show the importance and impact supply chain management operations have on a company. In this book, Enrico Camerinelli provides the supply chain manager and the chief financial officer with the means to link the value of the supply chain to an organization's bottom line. He explores the problem with current supply chain metrics, shows how to close the gap between financial decisions and supply chain performance, suggests a model to provide a lingua franca for supply chain, financial and other managers throughout the company and points to ways in which new technology can help measure the value of the supply chain. Using case studies and interviews with supply chain and financial experts, Measuring the Value of the Supply Chain will help financial and supply chain managers achieve strategic advantage through effective supply chain management.

This book addresses a broad range of problems commonly encountered in the fields of financial analysis, logistics and supply chain management, such as the use of big data analytics in the banking sector. Divided into twenty chapters, some of the contemporary topics discussed in the book are co-operative/non-cooperative supply chain models for imperfect quality items with trade-credit financing; a non-dominated sorting water cycle algorithm for the cardinality constrained portfolio problem; and determining initial, basic and feasible solutions for transportation problems by means of the “supply demand reparation method” and “continuous allocation method.” In addition, the book delves into a comparison study on exponential smoothing and the Arima model for fuel prices; optimal policy for Weibull distributed deteriorating items varying with ramp type demand rate and shortages; an inventory model with shortages and deterioration for three different demand rates; outlier labeling methods for medical data; a garbage disposal plant as a validated model of a fault-tolerant system; and the design of a “least cost ration formulation application for cattle”; a preservation technology model for deteriorating items with advertisement dependent demand and trade credit; a time series model for stock price forecasting in India; and asset pricing using capital market curves. The book offers a valuable asset for all researchers and industry practitioners working in these areas, giving them a feel for the latest developments and encouraging them to pursue further research in this direction.

Inhaltsangabe:Einleitung: In meiner Diplomarbeit beschäftige ich mich mit der Darstellung der Financial Supply Chain, deren Prozesse und der Analyse der Finanzströme in einem Unternehmen. Das Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, das Konzept der Financial Supply Chain zu beschreiben, etwaige Problemfelder zu erkennen und Lösungswege aufzuzeigen, sowie das Potential und die Realisierbarkeit der Umsetzung anhand einer Fallstudie zu analysieren. Aufbauend auf diesen Erkenntnissen soll eine Aussage über den Wandel in Unternehmen, speziell im Finanzbereich, getroffen werden. Dieses Thema ist vor allem deswegen von Interesse, weil die prozessorientierte Betrachtung der Finanzströme bisher in Unternehmen vernachlässigt wurde. Während sich die heutigen Supply Chain Management-Lösungen in erster Linie mit der Optimierung der Waren- und Informationsströme vom Lieferanten bis zum Endkunden befassen, werden im Financial Supply Chain Management die Finanzströme betrachtet. Die weitgehend papierbasierte Abwicklung der Finanzprozesse birgt erhebliche Ineffizienzen, die zu langen Prozesszeiten und -kosten führen. Problemstellung: Die prozessorientierte Betrachtung der Unternehmensabläufe hat sich als Managementansatz weitgehend durchgesetzt. Deshalb haben bereits viele Unternehmen Supply Chain-Strategien von ihren Unternehmensstrategien abgeleitet und eingeführt.1 Aus der erfolgreichen Umsetzung des Supply Chain Managements resultieren die Ablaufoptimierung und die Generierung enormer Einsparpotentiale. Dies ermöglicht es den Unternehmen, z.B. ihren Kunden ein verbessertes Angebot bieten zu können und somit Wettbewerbsvorteile gegenüber der Konkurrenz zu erreichen. Die heutigen Supply Chain Management-Lösungen befassen sich dabei in erster Linie mit der Optimierung der Waren- und Informationsströme vom Lieferanten bis zum Endkunden. Supply Chain Management umfasst jedoch nicht nur die Waren- und Informationsströme, sondern auch die Finanzströme .2 Gegenwärtige Softwarelösungen ermöglichen zwar eine unternehmensübergreifende, vertikale Integration der Arbeitsprozesse entlang der gesamten Wertschöpfungskette, bilden aber die Finanzprozesse nur unzureichend ab. Die weitgehend papierbasierte Abwicklung der Finanzprozesse birgt erhebliche Ineffizienzen, die zu langen Prozesszeiten führen. Das Financial Supply Chain Management3 soll nun die Lücke schließen, die das Supply Chain Management bisher offen lässt. Ziel ist es, weitere Prozessverbesserungen und Einsparpotentiale [...]
