Operations & Supply Chain Management

Operations & Supply Chain Management considers the active organisation of all processes to economically supply customers or markets with products, goods and services and, in addition to the physical activities, also the accompanying order processing and cash flow processes. Advancing digitalisation, increasing global competition, growing awareness of environmental pollution and the social impact of global business activities pose further challenges for this area of business management.
