Module 3 – SLP

Supply Chain Planning

In SLP 3, focus on supply chain management in your imaginary company.

Session Long Project

Using your fictitious company from the previous SLPs, continue to
develop the company profile and operating information. This is a very
open-ended SLP and it will give you an opportunity to expand your
knowledge and allow you to use creativity in providing the solution to
the challenges.

Identify how your company uses supply chain management. Successful
supply chain management demands a high level of integration among
various parts of the organizations. Develop integrated supply management
strategy, including suppliers, internal supply chain, and customers.
Articulate challenges and possible solutions.

This paper should be approximately 3–5 pages in length
counting the introduction, body, and summary. Include references and
cite them properly in the paper. Generally, at least three references
should be used.
