ToTrade: Optimizing Performance through the Supply Chain Finance Network
內容大綱
<p align="justify">By early 2022, Zhongguang Yiyun Supply Chain Management Co. Ltd. had spent six years developing its supply chain management (SCM) and supply chain finance (SCF) platform, ToTrade. The platform collaborated with multiple banks and focal companies to provide integrated SCF services to over 1,000 upstream and downstream small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in China’s Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai Provinces. But the site of competition in the Chinese SCF market had shifted from a single company’s SCF capability to its integrated SCF network. Therefore, it was crucial for ToTrade to establish a robust financial supply network in order to enhance the implementation and development of its SCF services. As the volume of ToTrade’s SCF service increased, the company faced key questions: How could ToTrade develop its network to further support its SCF development? And how could the platform effectively evaluate its SCF service performance to better guide this development?
學習目標
<p align="justify">This case is suited for senior undergraduate and postgraduate students studying supply chain management. It also has practical implication for general managers, supply chain managers, and supply chain finance (SCF) operators. The objective of this case is to allow students to explore SCF networks in the context of a real business. The classroom discussion is designed to focus on the discussion on SCF capabilities, SCF networks, and SCF service performance measurements. By adopting these theoretical lenses, students can strengthen and deepen their understanding of SCF. After working through the case and assignment questions, students will be able to do the following:<br><br><ul><li>Define SCF and its related capabilities.</li><li>Explain and apply the SCF network framework to analyse different SCF programs.</li><li>Explain how the SCF capabilities can affect network characteristics.</li><li>Identify SCF performance measurements and apply them to evaluate the performance of other SCF programs.</li></ul>
