Supply chain management is the deliberate effort to ensure that goods are delivered in the most efficient and effective way. “Supply chain management is the handling of the entire process of turning raw materials into a final product. Without the supply chain, we would not have access to food and health products, or the items that allow us to work, travel and entertain ourselves. Supply chain management involves a network of suppliers connected via a centralized management process. Each supplier acts as a link that moves a product along a chain of production, from raw material suppliers to manufacturers to retailers.” The significant change in interest and exchange rates this makes the supply chains fragile. American consumers were affected by supply chain issues through COVID, and this has shown us how important supply chain management is. Supply chain issues will lead to inflation and a lack of available goods. This creates higher prices with demand and longer wait times to purchase necessary items.
