We study all these topics holistically from the concept of an INTEGRATED Supply Chain

Supply Chain Issues for Caterpillar:• How many # units of each type of equipment are needed? (PLAN)• Where do all the parts come from for Caterpillar equipment? (SOURCE)• Caterpillar equipment is sold all over the world, but where is it produced? (MAKE)• How is Caterpillar equipment shipped to customers? (DELIVER)

Why SCM is important in the Bluegrass State!
Major OEM automobile manufacturers:
Toyota-Georgetown
Chevrolet Corvette-Bowling Green
Ford Truck Plant (FTP)-Louisville
>100s Tier-1 & Tier-2 auto parts suppliers
UPS Worldport-Louisville
General Electric-Louisville
Hitachi Automotive—over 2500 employees!
Lexmark International-Lexington
Corning Incorporated-Harrodsburg (100% export)
Current “model” for attracting SCM talent:1. Recruit from metropolitan areas (top SCM schools)
2. “Invest” in SCM talent for 2-3 years
3. SCM talent leaves (high turnover rate) to return ‘home’
4. Repeat Steps 1-3

At EKU we don’t ‘follow’—we ‘lead’

Tennessee, Southern Cal., et al
Very successful “launch”
Lots of progress in developing & enhancing alliances with leading firms in the region!

Global Supply Chain Update
• Fall 2016: ~30 students (with GSCM as major) and one of EKU’s fastest growing programs!
While encouraging, the # of ‘declared’ majors may not be truly indicative of the growing interest in our program!
Ex.MKT431 (Logistics)• Fall 2014: 9 students (3 of which were
study-abroad students looking for an ‘elective’)
• Fall 2016: 27 students!
Many recent EKU graduates pursuing careers in Supply Chain! (even those that did not major in SCM)

Supply Chain Certificate (recently approved!)
For non-SCM majors (university-wide)
Courses in each of the major pillars of Supply Chain
PlanSourceMakeDeliver
MKT315 Logistics/Transportation
MKT431 Procurement
MGT370 Operations Management
MGT375 Supply Chain Management
Many students (non-SCM majors) assessing value in understanding ‘core SCM’ areas Example: high ‘pull’ from Accounting students
due to SCM’s intensive study of ‘costs’ (transportation, raw materials, packaging, supplier development, etc.)
![Page 24: Eastern Kentucky University Executive-in-Residencetransportation.ky.gov/Planning/Documents/Freight Planning/Freight... · Eastern Kentucky University. Executive-in-Residence (Management,](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022022521/5b205cd17f8b9ab75d8b4a84/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
In summary…• Significant progress made over the past 3+ years—very
pleased, but much work to be done!
• Many ideas and plans to take advantage of the ‘positive momentum’
• Assessing other opportunities to “grow” the Supply Chain program:
• Supply Chain Executive education• Flexible course offerings (ex. evenings)• MBA courses in SCM
• Ongoing emphasis on developing alliances & partnerships with leading firms in the region
• We (EKU) want to be the first school employers think of re top SCM talent in the region!
