Write an individual 1500 word analysis in which you consider a supply chain of your choice from the 4 angles – inline with the first 4 lectures of the module. (lectures at attachments)
Your chosen supply chains will need to be cleared for suitability by the teaching team.
There are four questions you must answer on your selected supply chain. It is recommended that each question is answered separately within your report and that you give approximately 300 words to each answer, leaving 300 to be split between the introduction and conclusion.
Questions to answer:
Which particular structural and/or infrastructural aspects of the supply chain contribute significantly to the good (or bad) business performance of the supply chain and why?
Where is value added within the supply chain and how is the surplus shared among the supply chain partners?
Which is the dominant order fulfillment strategy and are there any current or emerging market, product or production factors that could cause the strategy to change?
What are the key relationships within the supply chain and how does the dominant organization use these relationships to achieve its goals?
