    This document summarizes the benefits of FedEx's efficient supply chain management. It overviews FedEx's transformation from an old supply chain model with multiple warehouses and suppliers directly shipping to customers, to a new centralized model where suppliers ship to centralized FedEx warehouses and assembly sites. Key benefits of the new centralized model include low startup costs, variable costs, total inventory visibility across the supply chain, and facility/equipment/manpower cost savings. It also allows for time-definite delivery and relies on integral information technology systems.
