Study Notes

Overview of SCOR Methodology and Measuring Supply Chain Performance

SCOR methodology presents detailed information on process elements in Make level, including material flows, income sources, and product destinations.
Deliver level considers different treatment for orders from normal clients and retailers, including capacity and delivery time constraints, and cool chain requirements.
Strengths of SCOR methodology include structured alignment of strategic and operational metrics, standardized process reference model and multi-level performance metrics, industry benchmark data sources, and project portfolio with ROI analysis.
Weaknesses of SCOR methodology include inadequate organization-wide training, few analytical tools for macro-level problem solving, inadequate tools for executing SCOR projects, and little programmatic infrastructure for managing concurrent project activities.
Measuring supply chain performance is essential and must link to business objectives, be repeatable, provide insights for effective management, and support conflicting targets.
SCOR defines five performance attributes and three levels of measures for measuring supply chain performance.
M0 measures assess the performance of the organization as a whole, while M1 measures assess the performance of the supply chain as a whole.
M2 measures assess the performance of a Level 2 process, while M3 measures assess the performance of specific sub-processes within a Level 2 process.
SCOR team can review historical data to determine which measures to use for their specific supply chain and rely on variations and refinements of the measures to measure sub-processes or activities.
SCORcard specifies the measures that SCC companies have found most useful in analyzing the Source Stocked Products process and includes performance attributes, metrics, and benchmark data for a hypothetical company.
Comparison of a company's actual performance with industry benchmarks is called a gap, and SCOR methodology uses it to identify improvement opportunities.
Different companies and industries may use some of the terms and measures in slightly different ways, and SCOR team must review historical data and determine the most useful measures for their specific supply chain.
