Abstract
Proper management of the supply chain is a critical factor in a competitive and dynamic business environment. A supply chain consists of every single link starting with the transformation of consumer needs to use products which are then redirected back to the clients. As a result, a smooth transition of operations is critical in the supply chain. Uncertainty at any of the links in the supply chain can cause delays and blockage which might affect the general performance of the output of the chain. Consequently, it is necessary to direct the different factors liable for the supply chain. Subsequently, appropriate planning and dealing with uncertainties will translate to better arranging right from the level of production to timely distribution and eventually a greater customer satisfaction.
