1.2 Improving supply chain competencies

Feedback:

1. Analyse the problem - consists in examining the existing operations and processes in the supply chain as well as

identifying and prioritising the problems to be solved or improvements to be made.

2. Develop strategies and solutions - consists in identifying and evaluating potential strategies and solutions to the

analysed problems, and in developing an action plan.

3. Implement the plan - consists in implementing the action plan and collecting the relevant performance data.

4. Validate and check performance - consists in analysing the performance data to establish if the predicted

improvement was achieved, as well as in implementing corrective actions if necessary.

5. Integrate and document the improved process - consists, if the desired level of improvement is reached, in integrating

the operations, as well as documenting and monitoring the improved process.

1.13 Matching exercise

Feedback:

Bottleneck: A: Pursuing the most reliable sources of supply & B: Holding high levels of contingency stock.

Strategic: C: Assessing supply options and identifying the suppliers that are the most attractive from the point of view of

meeting all of the business's long-term requirements & D: Careful forecasting of demand in order to minimise

inventories

Leverage: E: Small price differences seek long term contract with supplier & F: Use of demand forecasting to minimize

inventory

Routine: G: Reduce time and effort spent & H: Keep the purchasing process as simple as possible.
