Before delving deeper into the subject matter of supply chain management, it is imperative to have an understanding of its functionality.In pursuance of creating one specific product for a company, a supply chain makes up a group of suppliers where each supplier acts as a link in the chain that aids in adding time and saving money. Being a large-scale business strategy, a supply chain integration brings in all the possible chains together to improve the efficiency of the organization.
There are a couple of ways through which an integration is done:
1     Through a merger with a firm that is already present in the supply chain, which becomes a binding approach.
2     Through the exchange of information and exclusively working with customers and suppliers, making it a non-binding approach where one company does not absolutely own the supply chain.
