MIT – Supply Chain Technology and Systems

0

Learn how technology is used in supply chain systems from fundamental concepts to innovative applications – ​part of the MITx Supply Chain Management MicroMasters Credential.

What you’ll learn

Fundamental IT concepts

Supply Chain Management systems

Analysis of data from supply chain systems

About this course

There are underlying fundamental principles and concepts that apply to all supply chains, which can be expressed in relatively straightforward models. However, to actually implement them across a real supply chain requires the use of technology across multiple systems. Supply chains have a long history of using technology to improve efficiency and effectiveness. The shear scale and scope of most supply chains require many distinct systems to interact with each other.

Unfortunately, technology is a moving target. It is constantly evolving and improving so that today’s technology is outdated within a few years or months. Rather than focusing on a specific software system, this business and management course will focus on three aspects: fundamental concepts, core systems, and data analysis.

We will start with the introduction of fundamental concepts that are used in all software tools. We will cover IT fundamentals, including project management and software processes, data modeling, UML, relational databases and SQL. We will also introduce Internet technologies, such as XML, web services, and service-oriented architectures. No prior programming experience required.

We will then provide an overview of the main types of supply chain software including ERP, WMS, and TMS systems. We will describe their main functionality, how they work, how they are used, their architecture, data flows, and how they are organized into modules. We will also cover the software selection process and how software upgrade and implementation projects should be organized and managed.

Finally, we will dive into data analysis that is core to all large supply chains. We will introduce visualization and big data analysis techniques that are used in practice today.

Through this 5-year ReCIC project that started from April 2021, EnDev aims to set up a sustainable production and dissemination chain for improved cookstoves (ICS) as well as for improved or alternative fuels in Rwanda through a threefold approach: 1) increase production capacities, 2) consumer awareness 3) increase dissemination of ICS and improved fuels.

ReCIC supports a wide range of ICS products and fuels by giving the choice to the Rwandan users to adopt most appropriate ICS design and fuel, according to their needs and purchasing power, through a market-based approach. In doing so, producers of both ICS and alternative fuels will be enabled to grow and professionalise their businesses, and eventually transition into a semi-industrial production, with bigger output and improved quality products, to better serve the Rwandan market. The ReCIC project is aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Biomass Energy Strategy (BEST) of the government of Rwanda.

Interventions to achieve the goals of the project consist of private sector development through training and other interventions, including through a Business Growth Fund that provides financial and in-kind support to private companies and cooperatives on competitive basis.
