SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT Supply chain management (SCM) is the broad range of activities required to plan, control and execute a product's flow, from acquiring raw materials and production through distribution to the final customer, in the most streamlined and cost-effective way possible.
CRM Customer relationship management (CRM) is a model for managing a company’s interactions with current and future customers. It involves using technology to organize, automate, and synchronize sales, marketing, customer service, and technical support.
CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT CRM consists of the processes a company uses to track and organize its contacts with its current and prospective customers. Typical CRM goals are: Acquire new customers Retain customers Improve cross selling and up-selling opportunities
Integrated Supply Chain and Customer Relationship Management ( ISCRM ) JDA Chief Technology Officer Scott Hines coined the term ISCRM ; Integrated Supply Chain and Customer Relationship Management. Companies so far rarely integrate supply chain management and customer relationship management. By integrating these business processes companies are able to break through and achieve a number of improvements in their financial and performance metrics that would have been unachievable using only stand alone CRM & SCM techniques .
Three phases of customer experience
Need and Importance of CRM Better service to customers For example, ICICI Bank maintains a list of priority customers and provides them with additional facilities and special offers such as free tickets to concerts, movies, and so on. Some banks, such as Syrian Catholic Bank provide personalized services to their important customers. Customization of market offerings Reduction in the customer defection rate Increase and improvement in long-term relationships Increase in customer equity Competitive advantage Building and maintaining corporate image Higher return on investment
PURPOSE OF CRM “The focus is on creating value for the customer and the company over the longer term”. When customer value the customer service that they receive from suppliers, they are less likely to look to alternative suppliers for their needs. CRM enables organizations to gain ‘competitive advantage’ over competitors that supply similar products or services.
“Customer relationship management focuses on strategically significant markets. Not all customers are equally important ”. Therefore, relationships should be built with customers that are likely to provide value for services. Building relationships with customers that will provide little value could result in a loss of time, staff and financial resources.
