Module 1: What is Supply Chain Management? (ASU-WPC-SCM) - ASU's W. P. Carey School

[@timur6470]

I learned more in this video series than in all of my marketing courses

Haha, I totally agree with you..

Such a charismatic presenter, fun editing and straightforward visuals!

I just want to say that this video sold me on majoring in Supply Chain Management four years ago as a high school senior. I’m now about to graduate college and start working as a supply chain project manager for a well-known retailer. Thank you to Arizona State and the W.P. Carey School of Business for the inspiration! I highly recommend this video to anyone who’s interested in the field.

[@GGsupply]

100% agree

[@Mr.hyde1886]

How's it going for you? Looking into doing this

[@noahbonner5853]

@@Mr.hyde1886 It’s worked out great! I haven’t had a single day where I regret going down this path. Can’t recommend SCM enough. What I loved about majoring- and now working- in SCM is that you’re working with almost every part of the business on a daily basis, depending on what role you’re in (engineering, marketing, data, finance). Really gives you a broad knowledge that sets you up for the rest of your career. The one piece of advice I’d add is to get a minor/certificate/anything in Data Analytics. I use SQL and Power BI on a daily basis, and I think having that on my resume in college gave me an advantage. Let me know if there’s any other questions you have; I’d love to help however I can.

It really helps build a well-rounded knowledge to set you up for long-term success. I’d also recommend getting a minor/certificate/anything in data science. I use data on a daily basis in my role (SQL, Power BI) and it helps complement the SCM major.

I watched this video about 7 years ago to learn what supply chain management is. I just got my Masters Degree in Integrated Supply Chain Management. Thank you so much for simplifying SCM for all of us!

[@ericninsson6017]

Louis B i don't have a math background but i want to do my masters in supply chain management. Is it going to be difficult for me?

[@LBastone]

Eric Ninsson no, you will be fine. Math isn’t the core of SCM overall.

Update: I’ve been a procurement manager for a large technology company for 4 years now. This video assisted in giving me a very fulfilling career. Thanks again!

[@jesus777e6]

This guy can make anything sound interesting and easy to learn. This is where procrastination got me and I do not regret it. It beats working on my English class journals

[@phxx8534]

The speaker is Professor Davila and he teaches all the SCM 300 classes. Great class, made me change to SCM.

[@InstTaxSolutionsLLC]

Product cost not being equal to material cost really is commonly misunderstood by many consumers. This is one of the most thorough explanations about supply chain and how the various costs will be added to the product cost.

[@coelhovitorcuritiba]

And once again, I see a good piece of work that uses good humour and light content. This is the way! THANK YOU!

Had him at ASU in 2008. amazing professor who made Supply Chain so easy and simple to understand

I took his course at ASU. Probably one of the best classes of my undergrad

no top comment? why isnt my lecturer and tutor in class this informative? i spend 3 hours in a lecture, and this guy explained it better and more effectively in 8 minutes. I want to go to this university. Arizona ftw

I haven't finished this video yet, and I love it already. I would be so great if you could do a video for every industry. I think the graphic representation of every term at the right hand side helps a lot for all visual learners.

[@supersolace2027]

I see a comment about what kid grew up dreaming of being involved in supply chain management and honestly that kid was me. I watched this video in the 6th grade at 12 and from then I decided this is what I want to be a part of. I was lucky enough to get into a high school where I had a major/shop titled logistics where I learned about it for four years. Then I went to college for supply chain management. As of now I’m 20 and I’m a senior entering my last year of college with honors and I will graduate a year before my original class of 2022 (now I’m class of 2021 . I don’t think I’ve been impacted more deeply by anything else up to date. I truly have a passion for the field.

[@user-qy6tu9ip9v]

What is supply chain like?

[@supersolace2027]

@@user-qy6tu9ip9v it really complies so much and applies varying roles like supply chain analyst, supply chain planner, working in buying/procurement (buying either goods for the company to sell/use for customers/use to help the company like machinery or even office goods) operations (warehousing, distribution, transportation etc) I’ve worked in manufacturing/ construction, operations and now buying all very different roles that aim to focus on getting the right goods to the right people at the right time and at the right price point

For those of you wanting to switch careers and have this in mind: DO IT!! SCM is the future and will only grow bigger and bigger and more profitable

[@ysfkrwn7095]

If all operational activities/processes of supply chain (sourcing, making, and delivering) are managed (planned, implemented, and controlled) by a single organization (or a firm), is the organization still considered doing a supply chain management? (e.g. one organization might source their own product's raw material and energy source by themselves, transform those material into finished goods by themselves, and deliver those finished goods to end users by themselves); and if it works, then what is the term 'efficiency' means in supply chain context? is it refer to money spent or natural resource used?

[@luctriciawelters4090]

Thank you so much for adding some humor to this subject matter. I just started a class in Operations Management and we're going over supply chain. It's a pretty easy concept to grasp but you broke it down in ways that I would have never thought to. I'll be looking out for more of your videos and pass the word on about your manner of instruction. (It's not boring at all and sometimes the humor allows you to embrace the concepts better. I wish more professors could understand that...) Anyway, thanks again and keep up the good work.

I really want to get into supply chain but my school doesn’t offer it. I have the chance to major in business administration, marketing, accounting, computer science and civil engineering but I’m leaning more toward the business majors( business, accounting, marketing) which one should I pick? And how can I break into the supply chain industry? Should I get certs or get a masters in supply chain ?

I have no idea about this when I started my bottled water business.. but I made my steps or process on how to create a bottled water. My neighbor got jealous and bought a machine to purify the water,.. they thought you just need a machine lol.. they never thought of supply chain management .. declared bankruptcy. Now, I’m doing my mba..now I understand the process
