| Tiivistelmä: | Research in Supply Chain Management was almost non-existent until the mid-1990s. Since then, the growth of SCM research has been exponential. Currently, SCM is making the change from being an emerging research field to becoming a consolidated one. This paper aims to analyze the way SCM has developed from its origins and to determine whether its present development corresponds to the needs that companies are experiencing. The paper provides a frame of reference for SCM research, which is important for the definitive consolidation of a fledgling field such as this. It also allows any possible gap between SCM research and practice to be minimized. |
