This paper explores the core meaning of KPIs in the context of supply chains, identifies essential metrics for assessing supply chain health, and outlines best practices for monitoring and interpreting these metrics. The paper also includes an illustrative KPI dashboard, supported by real-world examples, to highlight how businesses can leverage KPIs for strategic advantage. In doing so, the discussion emphasizes how improved KPIs contribute to reduced costs, operational efficiency, and better risk management.
