Operations interfaces in a product supply chain include upstream (supplier management), downstream (customer management), and vertical interfaces (interactions between different levels of the supply chain). Option A is incorrect as it only refers to the primary firm and its suppliers, ignoring the downstream interfaces that involve the end customer. Option C is incorrect as it incorrectly states that downstream interfaces refer to supplier management. Option D is incorrect as upstream interfaces refer to supplier management, not customer management.
