Supply Chain Management

You are required to select an organisation or industry of your own choice. This can be an organisation or industry you currently work for/in, one you have worked for/in previously or any other organisation/industry for which you have access to information. The assignment must address both parts:
Part A. Discuss and analyse one major supply chain challenge for an organisation or industry of your choice.
Part B. Based on your analysis in Part A use appropriate academic models and frameworks to provide clear recommendations to managers.
The two questions should be addressed in a 2500-word report.
Your analysis and report must build on appropriate theory/literature as covered in the handbook, textbook and broader reading and research. Your answers should include a broad range of reference material including academic journal papers.
Main Assessment Criteria:
Content:
Clear and concise identification of the challenge
Challenge is supported with clear evidence
Application of concepts and models
Clear and logical recommendation plan
Realistic implementation plan, including timeline and risk analysis
General:
Breadth of relevant reading
Presentation of report: structure, clarity of writing, referencing and bibliography
Structure and Formatting:
Reports need to be well-structured, divided into numbered sections that correspond logically to the assignment questions. You should include an executive summary, introduction and conclusion.
The word count excludes title page, bibliography and appendices (the standard 10% allowance also applies but do not go beyond that limit). Sticking to a strict word limit is difficult and an important skill for you to acquire, so make sure that you write in a concise and focused manner.
An essential feature of the reports is to illustrate how theoretical constructs or models can help to explain the actions of organisations in practice. You are therefore advised to read widely. In fact, unless you have read and referenced at least 10 discrete references, it is unlikely that you have done sufficient reading. Beware of sources from the Internet: apart from reputable and academic references that can be downloaded through the Internet, most Internet references are not considered reliable for an academic piece of work. Academic journals generally offer a better source than textbooks.
