Abstract: Abstract In this chapter, we introduce a unified supply chain framework based on the flows of products, information and capital. Using this framework, we identify five salient parameters that characterize supply chains and present some indicators of supply chain risks derived from the salient parameters. We later discuss the roles of demand management, supply chain integration and operational flexibility in managing uncertainties along supply chains. We emphasize the uncertainty modelling approach as an effective demand management tool and demonstrate how it helped a global manufacturer increase the bottom line substantially.
