Engineering discipline that concerns the planning, design, and operation of supply chains
Supply chain engineering is the engineering discipline that concerns the planning, design, and operation of supply chains.[1][2] Some of its main areas include logistics, production, and pricing.[2][3] It involves various areas in mathematical modelling such as operations research, machine learning, and optimization, which are usually implemented using software.[2][1]
