Executive Directory of Manufacturing, Production, and Distribution Executives allows you to target individuals that hold a position in the manufacturing, production, and distribution department in a business, corporation, or firm. A supply channel is composed of three structures. These executives facilitate the flow of products, services, and information to and from an organization.
The terminal point in a supply channel is the retailer who sells goods and services directly to the customer for their personal, non-business use. A distributor is a business that does not manufacture its own products but purchases and resells products. Such a business usually maintains a finished goods inventory. The proliferation of alternative distribution forms, such as warehouse clubs, catalog sales, marketing channel specialists, and mail order, have blurred functional distinctions and increased the difficulty of defining both the distribution process and the term distributor. Distribution involves a number of activities centered around a physical flow of goods and information. The term distribution applied only to the outbound side of supply chain management, but now includes both inbound and outbound. Management of the inbound flow involves, material planning and control, purchasing, receiving, physical management of materials via warehousing and storage, and materials handling. Management of the outbound flow involves, order processing, warehousing and storage, finished goods management, material handling and packaging, shipping, and transportation. Distribution channels are formed to solve three critical distribution problems: functional performance, reduced complexity, and specialization. The central focus of distribution is to increase the efficiency of time, place, and delivery utility. When demand and product availability are immediate, the producer can perform the exchange and delivery functions itself.
Individuals in the Manufacturing/Production/Distribution business have several different qualities in performing various channels such as leadership, decision-making, influencing and comprising team building skills. They have project scoping, goal setting and execution planning skills. They are well versed in public speaking and listening, and writing and presentation communication skills. Their technical skills are web-enabled research and sourcing analysis.
