supply chain management



Task
Using an example product of your choice (e.g. iPhone, Milk, Luxury Car etc.) answer the following questions:
1) Outline the supply chain for your chosen product making sure to relate your answer to the traditional supply chain.
2) How is your product transported and stored through the supply chain currently? What improvements could be made?
3) How is production planned and controlled for your product? Do you feel this is the most appropriate method of forecasting demand?
4) Consider the ideas of lean manufacturing – is this appropriate for your product?
