The objective of this paper is to present a framework that can be helpful for teaching and managing supply chains. The framework is named the "5P's of a Supply Chain" and aims to characterize any supply chain based on its Products, Pain points, Performance measures, Physical structure and Processes. We discuss how these 5Ps can be integrated into the supply chain curriculum. An example from the softgoods industry supply chains is presented to illustrate the proposed framework.
