Supply Chain professionals need to research various elements of a business in order to comprehend the impact of effective and ineffective supply chain elements, goals, and objectives of a particular organization. Supply Chain professionals cannot successfully execute their duties without this comprehensive overview.
Identify a company that you are either familiar with or would like to become more familiar. Write a 1,050- to 1,400-word paper that defines the supply chain elements of the organization using visualization and graphics to support your assessment.
Research the following aspects of your selected company:
- Operations
- Divisions
- Products and services
Create a visual representation (graph, chart, or diagram) that illustrates the company’s supply chain. The visual representation should provide an overview and a strong understanding of supply chain operations and the flow of these operations within the company. You will need to include the following items:
- Functions and operations
- Customer and supplier relationship
- External divisions and their purpose
- The upstream and downstream flow of information, physical materials/services and money
