ABSTRACT
In Chapter 1 we discussed the need for a Total Supply Chain Management approach and introduced the concepts of building blocks. The importance of each building block is explained in this chapter. No block stands alone but, rather, each is a component of the whole. In combination these bricks show the activities, stages and processes of the extended supply chain. The sequence of practices creates a flow between different stages to fulfil a customer’s need for a product or service. Therefore we aim to explain in this chapter:
1. What are the building blocks of a Project Supply Chain? 2. Are all the building blocks suited to every project?
