Supply Chain Management (SCM) is the management of the flow of goods and services. It includes the movement and storage of raw materials, work-in-process inventory, and finished goods from point of origin to point of consumption. Interconnected or interlinked networks, channels and node businesses are involved in the provision of products and services required by end customers in a supply chain. In a contingent progam supply chain management refers to the process of optimizing a company’s contingent talent pipeline from candidate sourcing to onboarding and beyond.
