Supply Chain Management is a network of facilities that produce raw materials, transform them into intermediate goods and then final products, and deliver the products to customers through a distribution system. It spans procurement, manufacturing and distribution(5) the basic objective of supply chain management is to “optimize performance of the chain to add as much value as possible for the least cost possible”. In other words, it aims to link all the supply chain agents to jointly cooperate within the firm as a way to maximize productivity in the supply chain and deliver the most benefits to all related parties (6).
Supply chain management coordinates and integrates all of these activities into a seamless process. During the process, inventory holding and warehousing play an important role in modern supply chains. A survey of logistics costs in Europe identified the cost of inventory as being 13% of total logistics costs, whilst warehousing accounted for a further 24% (7) .As well as being significant in cost terms, they are important in terms of customer service, with product availability being a key service metric and warehousing being critical to the success or failure of many supply chains.
