Competitive Differentiation through Supply Chain
Management
By Klaus Venus
LogiChem 2011 will be the event's tenth anniversary and an opportunity for the most senior chemical supply chain & global logistics directors from the European chemicals community to come together once again share experiences, make new contacts and benchmark the latest chemical supply chain initiatives.
Not only will LogiChem 2011 be a chance for the chemical industry to reminisce about the last ten years but an opportunity to shape the next decade. To celebrate a decade of LogiChem, there will be an exciting three day programme filled with networking opportunities in our new location, Antwerp.

19. Tactical vs. Strategic Approach
There is a growing gap in how companies think about their supply chains.
Tactical Approach Strategic Approach
• Supply Chain is a cost center • Supply Chain used to:
– grow revenues
– increase market share
• Focus on operational cost – create competitive advantage
control and reduction
• Target opportunities for new value
added services
• Perceive operating efficiency as • Invest in VERY specific capabilities
excellence -- “efficiency trap”
• Create a distinct business model
• Lean to the point of starvation • Use new capabilities to change the
customer relationship
