Abstract (AI)
In 1998, the Council of Logistics Management modified its definition of logistics to indicate that logistics is a subset of supply chain management and that the two terms are not synonymous. Now that this difference has been recognized by the premier logistics professional organization, the challenge is to determine how to successfully implement supply chain management. This paper concentrates on operationalizing the supply chain management framework suggested in a 1997 article. Case studies conducted at several companies and involving multiple members of supply chains are used to illustrate the concepts described.
Key Findings
1
Case studies involving several companies and multiple supply-chain members illustrate the framework’s implementation concepts.

3
The paper distinguishes supply chain management from logistics, treating logistics as a subset rather than a synonym of supply chain management.
4
The paper identifies implementation issues and research opportunities arising from the recognized distinction between logistics and supply chain management.
