Supply chain has not yet formed a unified definition , Many scholars have given many different definitions from different angles .
The early view is that supply chain is an internal process in manufacturing enterprises , It refers to the purchase of raw materials and spare parts from outside the enterprise , Through activities such as production conversion and sales , It is a process that is passed to retailers and users . The traditional concept of supply chain is limited to the internal operation level of the enterprise , Pay attention to the resource utilization of the enterprise itself .

Some scholars associate the concept of supply chain with procurement 、 Associated with supply management , Used to express the relationship with suppliers , This view has been studied in partnership 、JIT Relationship 、 Fine supply 、 Scholars pay attention to supplier behavior evaluation and user satisfaction . However, such a relationship is only limited between enterprises and suppliers , And each enterprise in the supply chain operates independently , Neglecting the connection with external supply chain member enterprises , Often cause the goal conflict between enterprises .

Later, the concept of supply chain paid attention to the connection with other enterprises , Pay attention to the external environment of the supply chain , Think it should be a “ Through the manufacturing of different enterprises in the chain 、 assemble 、 distribution 、 Retail and other processes convert raw materials into products , And then to the end-user conversion process ”, This is the larger scope 、 A more systematic concept . for example , Stevens of the United States （Stevens） Think ：“ Controlling the flow from suppliers' suppliers to users' users through value-added processes and distribution channels is the supply chain , It starts at the source of Supply , End at the end of consumption ”. Evans （Evens） Think ：“ Supply chain management is through feedforward information flow and feedback material flow and information flow , Will the supplier 、 Manufacturer 、 distributor 、 Retailer , Until the end user is connected into a whole module ”. These definitions pay attention to the integrity of the supply chain , The operation consistency of all members in the supply chain is considered （ The relationship of the members in the chain ）.

And recently , The concept of supply chain pays more attention to the network chain relationship around the core enterprise , Such as core enterprises and suppliers 、 The supplier's supplier and even the relationship with all forward , And users 、 Users' users and all backward relationships . At this time, the understanding of supply chain has formed a concept of network chain , Like Toyota 、 Nike 、 Nissan 、 McDonald's, apple and other companies' supply chain management are implemented from the perspective of network chain . Harrison （Harrison） Then the supply chain is defined as ：“ Supply chain is the implementation of purchasing raw materials 、 Convert them into intermediate products and finished products 、 And sell the finished products to the user's functional network ”. These concepts also emphasize the strategic partnership of supply chain . Phillip （Phillip） And Wendell （Wendell） It is considered that strategic partnership in supply chain is very important , By building strategic partnerships , Work more effectively with key suppliers and users . On the basis of research and analysis , We give a definition of supply chain ： Supply chain is around the core enterprise , Through the flow of information 、 logistics 、 Control of capital flow , Starting from purchasing raw materials , Make intermediate and final products , Finally, the supplier who delivers products to consumers through the sales network 、 Manufacturer 、 distributor 、 Retailer 、 Until the end user is connected into a whole functional network chain structure mode . It is a broader enterprise structure model , It includes all the affiliated node enterprises , Starting from the supply of raw materials , After manufacturing and processing by different enterprises in the chain 、 assemble 、 Distribution and other processes until the end user . It is not only a material chain connecting suppliers to users 、 Information chain 、 Capital chain , And it's a value-added chain , Materials are processed in the supply chain 、 packing 、 Transportation and other processes to increase its value , Bring benefits to relevant enterprises .
