Free Supply Chain Flow Chart
The "Supply Chain Flow Chart" presents a detailed sequence of steps involved in procuring raw materials and managing their movement through various logistical stages. It begins with the acquisition of raw materials, followed by a quality check to ensure standards are met. Once verified, the process moves into supplier negotiation and the issuance of a purchase order. A decision point checks for order confirmation; if not confirmed, the flow loops back to renegotiate with the supplier. Upon confirmation, shipping arrangements are made, leading to inbound logistics. Another decision point evaluates the success of inbound logistics, and if issues arise, the process returns to shipping arrangements. The final stage involves customs clearance, which also includes a decision point—any failure here loops back to inbound logistics. This flowchart effectively captures the iterative nature of supply chain management, emphasizing quality control, communication with suppliers, and regulatory compliance.
