Supply chain management (SCM) is the management of a network of interconnected businesses involved in the provision of product and service packages required by the end customers in a supply chain.
Supply chain management spans all movement and storage of raw materials, work-in-process inventory, and finished goods from point of origin to point of consumption.
“Design, planning, execution, control, and monitoring of supply chain activities with the objective of creating net value, building a competitive infrastructure, leveraging worldwide logistics, synchronizing supply with demand and measuring performance globally."
SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT
A DABBAWALA also spelled as dabbawalla or dabbawallah; is a person in India, most commonly found in the city of Mumbai,
who is employed in a unique service industry whose primary business is collecting the freshly cooked food in lunch boxes from
the residences of the office workers (mostly in the suburbs), delivering it to their respective workplaces and returning the
empty boxes back to the customer’s residence by using various modes of transport
DABBAWALA
It was the time when India was under the British rule.
British people who came to the colony did not like the local food.
A Parsi banker employed a person to bring home-made food to site of work.
His colleagues too liked this idea and started availing this service.
Started a lunch delivery service with about 100 men.

Only investment is the hard work , honesty , promptness and time management.
Low cost offices.
Very cheap hand cart.

MINIMUM CAPITAL INVESTMENT
World’s most democratic organization?
There are 2-3 Dabbawala
groups in each segment.
Dabba collection is group- wise but transportation is shared with other
groups. Competition is
only up to collection.
Profit is shared equally within
each group after
deducting expenses.
For 116 years , Dabbawalas did not touch technology - yet got six sigma and ISO.
Today mobile phones are used to communicate – mostly incoming.
Website & SMS used to get more customers & give information.
But logistics is still manual.
DO NOT BE OVER DEPENDENT ON TECHNOLOGY
