| | February 20174CIOReviewEditorialVOL 5 · ISSUE 2- 4 · FEBRUARY 23 - 2017Supply Chain Management (SCM) has evolved very fast in the recent years. By embedding product and process innovation in supply chain operations and consciously managing and shaping demand from customers, this critical function has advanced aggressively. As modern Supply Chain Management becomes tactical and demand driven, software vendors are developing systems to support the new SCM paradigm. The new supply chain systems are going beyond operating efficiencies to a totally integrated system that improves management, planning and execution at all levels, giving the organization a competitive edge. To support the implementation of new best practices, software vendors are moving to new innovative software architectures. The end users in turn are having greater flexibility in deploying the new best practices in ways that best address their own unique business requirements and take advantage of additional trends such as cloud computing, mobility and social media. However, given the inherently dynamic nature of real-world businesses, maintaining a good supply chain turns out to be far more complicated and difficult than it appears, and the confusion is compounded when selecting an SCM software solution. The reason is that most of the solutions try to address an umbrella of problems and end up being not optimized enough for a particular business situation.For the right SCM implementation, it is important to take into account the business objectives as well as the overall business strategy. It is also important that the business model as a whole is considered when you are going to invest in an SCM solution. That means the business infrastructure as well as the corporate culture need to guide the selection.
