The SCWG will monitor the overall effort to assureconsistency with goals.
Once formed, a good next step for the SCWG is todevelop the supply chain issues to be addressed

Step 1 The process begins with the SCWG defining issues thatneed to be addressed. There can be in excess of 100 ofthese, so it helps to divide them into catego- ries. Issues areoften presented in the form of a question.
The diagram shows that decision categories neednt belimited to supply chain or pure logistics issues. At this
point in the effort, its important to have an overallbusiness context for structuring the supply chain effort.

Step 2 Define Requirements In step 2, each listed issue is considered by the SCWG.
Where possible, deci- sions regarding issues are madeby consensus of SCWG members.
In many cases, an issue resolution isnt known.
If its priority is high, it then becomes a requirement toaddress quickly in an improvement effort.
