The 5 or 7 Rights of Logistics and Supply Chain Management
The main aim of SCM is a continuous supply of materials at 5 "rights" (5 Rs) which are:
1. The Right Place
2. The Right Time
3. The Right Quantity
4. The Right Quality
5. The Right Price
This can be done efficiently if a company has all of the following 3 flows arranged properly:
1. Cash Flow
2. Material Flow
3. Information Flow.

The 7 Rights in Logistics (7 R's)

7. The Right Customer
