Serial Supply Chains

Serial Supply Chains is a multi-echelon inventory system in which facilities are arranged sequentially in a linear hierarchy, such that each stage receives supplies exclusively from the preceding stage and delivers exclusively to the next stage, forming a unidirectional flow of goods from the initial production point to the final demand point.
