SCM BUSINESS PROCESSES Clause Samples

SCM BUSINESS PROCESSES. A SC business processes can be defined as a structure of activities designed to produce value from the sourcing, to coordination, and to distribution across the SC with a main focus on end customers (▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al.1998, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al. 1998). As indicated in the previous research, the companies in the same SC have different business processes which lead to inefficiency in SC, therefore an integration of these key business processes is significant for the success of a SC (▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al. 1997).The integration of key business process from upstream to downstream of a SC on tourism products, services and information can add value to tourists and the overall SC partners on tourism industry (▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al. 1998). The following are the seven key SCM processes that are included in the structure (▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al. 1998): and shown on Figure 2. The customer relationships management, customer service management, demand management, service delivery management, service flow, procurement and customization. SC sometimes faces the rise and fall of demand from a downstream to a upstream of a SC (Forrester 1961) this is known as the bullwhip effect in SC concept (▇▇▇ et al. 1997). It can be happened mainly due to lack of information exchange between SC partners (▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ et al. 2000, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 1989). Information sharing can lead to strong coordination between SC partners. A tour operator is a big player in managing the demand in tourism business. In addition, all partners collaborate in forecasting demand to prevent uncertainty. SCM knowledge facilitates cooperation and information exchange between SC partners to plan and control demand uncertainty. A Figure 2 illustrates the SC integration business processes from the upstream includes suppliers to the downstream includes end customers. A tour operator has influence over all of the customer relationships management, customer service management, demand management, service delivery management, service flow, procurement and customization to ensure every supplier on focus on delivering a highly quality of products, services, and information that add value for end customers and other SC partners.

Subject to the provisions of paragraph 3, where an enterprise of a Contracting State carries on business in the other Contracting State through a permanent establishment situated therein, there shall in each Contracting State be attributed to that permanent establishment the profits which it might be expected to make if it were a distinct and separate enterprise engaged in the same or similar activities under the same or similar conditions and dealing wholly independently with the enterprise of which it is a permanent establishment. 3. In determining the profits of a permanent establishment, there shall be allowed as deductions expenses which are incurred for the purposes of the permanent establishment, including executive and general administrative expenses so incurred, whether in the State in which the permanent establishment is situated or elsewhere. 4.
