The Connection Between Technology and Supply Chain Management

The technical frontiers of the retail system encompass new and better ways of performing standard retail functions. The retailer must always be aware of opportunities for every operating costs.

Technological changes such as developments in computer technology (hardware) and in management techniques (software). These changes underline many of the other changes because they affect the range of choices available to consumers and suppliers. The application of technological change is often inseperable from the other changes it helps to bring about.

New technology:
1. cheaper and better products or services
2. improve customer supply chain by reducing distribution costs and iproving the availability of products to the consumer
3. grocery distribution also makes increasing use of multi-temperatured trucks that can carry dry goods, chilled goods and frozen goods, decrease cost and increase customer service. Nevertheless, it requires relatively expensive equipments; larger operating stores, transporting larger loads in larger vehicles and operating larger depots and using equipment to improve the operation of storage and shop units, with relatively little increase in staff requirement.

Technology have dramatic influence on retailing. Technological innovations are grouped under three (3) main areas:
1. supply chain management
2. customer management
3. customer satisfaction
