Supply Chain Execution (sce)

Platforms Glossary

Supply chain execution (SCE) is the process of managing tasks and workflows involved in a supply chain. SCE includes order fulfillment, procurement, warehousing, and transport, as well as software and systems that help execute all related tasks.

Businesses that use supply chain execution (SCE) typically focus on workflows, such as order fulfillment, procurement, warehousing, and transporting. In contrast, supply chain management (SCM) broadly focuses on the participants involved in production, warehousing, inventory, distribution, and transportation as a means of efficiently responding to customer demand while minimizing costs.
