Quizplus · Accepted Answer

SCMs (supply chain management systems) focus on optimizing the flow of goods and services from the source to the customer. Enabling management to make better decisions regarding organizing and scheduling sourcing, production, and distribution is a central feature of SCMs. TPSs (transaction processing systems) focus on processing routine transactions such as sales and payments. KMSs (knowledge management systems) focus on capturing and sharing knowledge within an organization. ERPs (enterprise resource planning systems) focus on integrating all departments and functions within an organization into a single system. While ERPs may include SCM functionality, their primary focus is on overall business management rather than specific supply chain optimization.
