Aircrafts are steered through the use of a system of ailerons on the wings and the rudder at the tail of the aircraft. In comparison to the aircraft, the ailerons and the rudder are very small; however, leverage allows them to turn the large aircraft. In other words, putting the right combination of a little leverage on the right places allows incredible maneuvering. What is a Supply Chain?

Supply chains connect the functions of inbound activities (such as purchasing) with outbound activities (such as logistics and “place” activities).
