Posted by thinkphd in : ECM5006 , trackbackI begin ECM5006 Integrated Supply Chain Management on 11/01. This course has 4 activities worth 100 points each. The assignments are essentially 4 sets of some discussion questions and case studies.
Here are the learning outcomes:
1 - Understand what a supply chain is.
2 - Discuss logistics network configuration
3 - Explain inventory management and risk pooling
4 - Discuss the impact of the Internet on the supply chain
5 - Discuss the pull and push strategies
6 - Explain strategic alliances as they chain supply chain
7 - Discuss procurement and outsourcing strategies
8 - Discuss international issues in supply chain management
9 - Explain how design for logistics concepts can be used to control logistics costs and make the supply chain more efficient
10 - Discuss how information technology can be used to enhance customer value in the supply chain
11 - Explain the relationship between ERP software and decision-support software used in the installation
12 - Discuss decision support system for supply chain management
My job role at MWV is squarely in supply chain, so I am hoping that I will be able to use some real-life examples in my papers. I found the book used on the internet for $11.15 plus shipping. Not bad for a text costing over $100 new. I would like to see if I can finish up this class faster than usual so I can start statistics and then the research phase by Jan 1st!
