Abstract

The research aims to test the effect of the flexibility of the supply chain with its dimensions (the flexibility of the mix, the flexibility of the new product, the agility of the supply chain and the flexibility of distribution) on the customer’s happiness. The problem of the research is the lack of interest of the management of the company in question (the General Company for Electrical and Electronic Industries) in applying some dimensions of the flexibility of the supply chain and in a way that meets the needs and desires of renewable customers and in a way that enhances the achievement of joy for them, and for the purpose of achieving the objectives of the research and answering the questions, the questionnaire was adopted as a tool for collecting data that was distributed to a sample An intentional group of (55) respondents represented by (the general manager of the company, his assistant, department managers, factory managers and their agents), and a number of statistical methods were adopted to know the level of importance of research variables as well as to test hypotheses using the statistical program (SPSS V.28), and accordingly The researchers adopted the descriptive-analytical approach. In light of the achieved results, the most important of which was the presence of a significant effect of the flexibility of the supply chain on the customer’s joy, a number of conclusions were formulated, the most important of which is that the management of the company in question is differently interested in applying the dimensions of the flexibility of the supply chain to achieve the customer’s joy, as it focuses largely on the dimensions of chain agility. Processing and distribution flexibility, which affects the depth of cooperation links between the company’s management and suppliers, giving it the ability to get rid of activities that do not add value within the supply chain and provide a variety of reliable and safe products that are delivered on time, and based on the formulated conclusions, a set of The most important recommendations were to increase the interest in adopting all dimensions of the flexibility of the supply chain, especially with regard to the flexibility of the mixture and the flexibility of the new product if the company's management wanted to enhance the joy of its customers.

Abstract

Given the challenges facing Iraqi industry—such as limited government support and the high cost of production compared to imported goods—industrial organizations are in urgent need of adopting effective technologies to improve their operational efficiency. Supply chain analysis stands out as one of the most significant of these technologies, as it helps optimize the flow of materials and information, reduce costs, and enhance the accuracy of accounting data.

This study aims to highlight the impact of supply chain analysis on strengthening the effectiveness of the accounting information system through a field application at the National Company for Chemical and Plastic Industries. The findings indicate that integrating supply chain activities with the accounting system contributes to improving the quality of financial information, controlling costs, and supporting managerial decision-making. The study further recommends the development of digital systems that integrate logistical and accounting functions, along with training personnel on modern technologies. 

Keywords: supply chain, accounting information system, operational efficiency, cost reduction , effective and ineffective activities.

Abstract

In light of rapid economic changes and the increasing intensity of global competition, economic units seek to achieve excellence and efficiency by improving the management of their resources and reducing costs without affecting the quality of products or services. Rationalizing the allocation of costs is considered one of the modern administrative methods that aims to optimize the use of resources and distribute costs to activities. Strictly proportional to its contribution to creating added value in order to achieve this goal, value chain analysis has become an effective strategic tool that contributes to improving cost allocation and enhancing institutional performance. Value chain analysis, created by Michael Porter, depends on analyzing the main and supporting activities within the economic unit and evaluating them with the aim of identifying activities that contribute to creating value. Reality of the product or service from the customer's point of view, Compared to activities that raise costs without providing a tangible return, this methodology contributes to eliminating unnecessary costs and activities that do not add value, which helps achieve greater efficiency in allocating financial and human resources. Applying value chain analysis helps in restructuring operations in a way that ensures compatibility. Between diverse activities and market needs, This contributes to reducing waste and achieving a sustainable competitive advantage. It also contributes to enabling economic units to determine appropriate pricing strategies that reflect actual costs and help enhance profitability margins.
