Supply Chain Management (SCM) has been widely discussed in the literature, especially in operations management. Such discussion is focused on quantitative and qualitative approaches. On the one hand, quantitative modeling is applied to inventory management, demand forecasting and routing optimization. These studies are highly related to data analysis from case studies in manufacturing processes. On the other hand, qualitative, managerial or soft aspects of SCM are usually related to the definition of frameworks, which are applied within industry and after that are validated through empirical research. Such frameworks are usually applied in performance measurement, strategic planning and governance in SCM. Both quantitative and qualitative approaches have been published in a variety of journals related to operations management
