Abstract

Decisions about the planning, organization, execution and control of supply chains are to a vast extent based on economic, efficiency and time factors. Multiple methods and tools have been developed to support supply chain managers in this task. With new expectations and demands from society and governments regarding security and trade compliance, the complexity of managing value chains, especially international ones, has increased, and responsible operations are needed at all company levels. This imposes, among others, new challenges when designing networks and selecting partners or serving customers. To cope with these new demands, tools should be developed to support supply chain managers to ensure more secure and compliant operations. In this chapter, a prototype tool for meeting compliance requirements and increasing security in supply chains is presented.
