Agile Supply Chain Ecosystem

Incorporating Agility

So being agile is being quick at sensing and responding to changes. This means that an agile supply chain should be demand-driven and not forecast driven.

Origins

Agile thinking has come from software developers. Agile is an iterative approach to project management and software development that helps teams deliver value to their customers faster and with fewer problems. An agile team offers work in small, but consumable, workable, increments. So agile teams have a natural reflex for responding to change quickly.

Agile software development is more than practices such as pair programming, test-driven development, stand- up planning sessions, and sprints. Agile software development is an umbrella term for a set of frameworks and practices based on the values and principles expressed in the Manifesto for Agile Software Development and the 12 Principles behind it.

The Agile Method

The Agile Method is an alternative project management technique that designs a process that is inherently more aligned to customer needs. If it is desired to create an agile supply chain ecosystem, this system will require a higher level of integration between internal operational processes, such as sales, forecasting, production planning, sourcing, and delivery. So, every market player must be agile to deliver or manufacture something to market or another market player.
