Supply Chain Analysis of H&M

Term Paper , 2019 , 27 Pages , Grade: 1,7

Business economics - Supply, Production, Logistics

This work provides an insight into the supply chain of H&M. After a brief company introduction the whole structure of H&M´s Supply Chain is analyzed in detail. Starting from Bills of Material (BOM) and Bills of Routing (BOR) a Business Scope Diagram is created. This is followed by a detailed Geographic Map where the flows of goods and flows of information are displayed and explained. For better readability in this part an example for the situation in Europe is leveraged. Going further, a comprehensive thread diagram is the result. In this step we can identify problems in the current Supply Chain. Two well-known instruments, namely Balance Score Card (BSC) and Current Reality Tree (CRT) are used for the analysis of the problems. With help of the Future Reality Tree (FRT) we can give recommendations for the future and how current problems of the Supply Chain can be solved.
