Abstract :
As the product supply chain cost composition is highly complex and involves multiple links, optimizations on any link, process or functional activity (i.e. the reconstruction of supply chain process) is likely to result in the cost reduction. This paper aims to find out some important ways to reduce or improve supply chain cost by attempting to analyze the cost of link, process or functional activity which exerts vital influence on supply chain cost.
