The world has entered the extraordinary period of the 4th Industrial Revolution, and Operations and Supply Chain Management (OSCM) has a decisive role as a primary competitiveness-enhancing function of any activity. Organizations can’t exist without the goods and the services they produce; everything is structured around such goods and services. OSCM includes the design of goods and services, and the design of the "transformation" processes that create and deliver them through the complex journeys from the original suppliers of inputs to the final consumers. Operations and Supply Chain Managers must make strategic decisions regarding Product and Process design, Planning, Capacity analysis, Location and Layout choices, selection of Suppliers and Supply Chain design; they are expected to manage hands-on Procurement and Allocation of inputs, Flow of materials, people and information, Quality assurance, Logistics, and various unique Projects. They are called to drive productivity increase and the continual improvement of goods, services, and processes at competitive costs and quality levels while responding to stringent social responsibility requirements. OSCM achievements are grounded on the relentless advances in information technology as well as many other technological developments; the operations and supply chain managers must be able to adopt these technologies into their operations and adapt their operations to the new technologies.
