Day’s Overview: Friday, March 30

Registration Begins 12:00 noon to 6:00PM

Workshops 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM

SCOR: A New Tool to Improve Supply Chain Efficiency and Achieve Best Practice

Time and Place: Friday, March 30, 1:00-5:00 PM, Salon A

The Supply-Chain Operations Reference-model (SCOR) was developed in 1996 by 70 of today's leading manufacturers working with Pittiglio Rabin Todd & McGrath (PRTM) and AMR Research. Since then, it has been tested and is being adopted by many of the Supply-Chain Council's 750+ member firms.

SCOR is the only cross-industry supply-chain management reference model designed to describe, measure and analyze the performance of supply chain configurations. SCOR contains standard supply-chain process definitions, metrics, best practices, and references to enabling technology, which can contribute to SCM efficiency.

This workshop will present an overview of SCOR and reference how some of today's leading corporations are benefiting from its use.

Digital Exchanges and Supply Chains

Amiya K. Chakravarty, AB Freeman School of Business, Tulane University,

Time and Place: Friday, March 30, 1:00-5:00 PM, Salon B

A digital exchange facilitates transfer of goods, information and payments between suppliers and customers. It can be configured to emphasize different business practices in supply chains. Currently operating exchanges categorized as access providers, transaction hubs, and alliance hubs, embed different economic drivers. They create competitive advantage through customer access, speed of transactions, process standardization, consumption externality, information transparency, resource sharing, and rapid structuring of new business models. We study the above interactions with a view to decision-making in a supply chain.

Excursions In Scheduling Theory
Jatinder N. D. Gupta
Department of Management, Ball State University, Muncie, IN 47306

Time and Place: Friday, March 30, 3:00-5:00 PM, Salon C

This seminar is designed to provide an excursion into various scheduling problems arising in the manufacturing environment and possible approaches that can be taken to solve some of these problems. The seminar reviews the scheduling literature in the twentieth century from one specific perspective from one researcher's viewpoint and describes the mental and professional development of one person in understanding the complex field of production management in general and scheduling theory in particular.
This seminar covers the fundamental frameworks of scheduling theory, outlining various approaches that can be taken to solve (optimally or approximately) such problems, and the difficulties arising in their practical use. Specific detailed techniques of solution algorithms are not be covered in this seminar as they are better discussed in individual encounters. The approach taken is to identify the scheduling research paradigms in a non-mathematical and humorous way and shows some of the promising research areas for the twenty-first century.

Plenary Session: Do We Believe Our Own Findings? How We Could Transform Our Field Through Breakthrough Research?

Presenter: Clayton Christianson

Time and Place: Saturday, March 31, 9:00 AM – 10:15 AM, Kilimanjaro

In my remarks I will summarize my research over the last decade about how
the interaction of technological progress with the customers' ability to
utilize that process can trigger the disruption and disintegration of
industries. I will then use these models to describe what I believe to be a
serious disruptive threat to traditional schools of management, and offer
thoughts about how our institutions are responding in ways that are
perfectly predictable and perfectly wrong."
