Supply chain management coordinates all the operations on the supply side and the demand side. Purchasing and supply management deals with the operation’s interface with its supply markets. Physical distribution management may mean supplying immediate customers, while logistics is an extension that often refers to materials and information flow down through a distribution channel, to the retail store or consumers (increasingly common because of the growth of internet-based retailing). The term third-party logistics (TPL) indicates outsourcing to a specialist logistics company. Materials management is a more limited term and refers to the flow of materials and information only through the immediate supply chain. (看第五张ppt)
