When most people think about innovation, they immediately think about creating new business models or designing new products. However, innovation is not just that. It is also the continuous improvement of your business operations and processes. Based on this, it is easy to assume that an innovation in supply chain management is superior to simple supply chain management. Supply chain innovation is based on getting the best suppliers and materials. Instead, companies should try to work with suppliers to innovate in safer and better ways so that they can continue to develop and deliver services and products.
