Abstract:
|
The case gives an overview of the issues concerning the revival of Ashok Leyland
effected through a thorough revamp of the supply chain. It outlines how Ashok
Leyland, which was reeling under the weight of recession, staged a comeback by
reengineering its in-bound and out-bound supply chain which resulted in huge
cost savings. The case discusses various aspects of supply chain management and
emphasises its importance in the context of cost management with specific
reference to Ashok Leyland. The case, aimed at the MBA/PGDBA students as part of
Operations management curriculum, helps them to understand and appreciate the
role of supply chain management in an organization.
