Supply chains are made up of all the companies that participate in the design, assembly, and delivery of a particular product. Supply chain management goes well beyond what is generally considered “logistics” and is the reason that a producer can provide customers what they want, when and where they want it, at the price they need.

In the context of today’s global economy, there is an ever-increasing demand for greater innovation, increasing efficiency, and cost reduction, all in an effort to generate recurring value for the firm and its customers.
There is also an imbalance in the supply chain management workforce because of a shortage of skilled workers and an increase in retirees from the field. Some estimates suggest the global demand for supply chain professionals exceeds supply by 6-to-1.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the number of jobs in logistics is projected to grow 4% by 2029, driven by the need for supply chain management in the transport of goods in a global economy.
