Abstract
Information technology (IT) represents a very important aspect that significantly impacts
the electronic supply chain management (SCM) (Harsono, 2014).
Dell adopts the agility strategy in its supply chain, it keeps materials undifferentiated
until the customer reveals his desire for the product. Customers are allowed to place their orders
and customize their PCs electronically. Then, Dell forwards the order to the designated facility to
produce it. Agility enables suppliers to adjust their schedule of production and plans for the
needed components in the production process. The matter that enabled Dell to timely respond to
the customers changing needs (Qrunfleh & Tarafdar, 2013).
