supplier relationship management process optimization process mapping supply chain optimization supply chain acumen data analysis management operations supply chainCanadian Metal Buildings seeks to enhance the efficiency of its supply chain processes within its pre-engineered metal building manufacturing facility. The current supply chain system has been identified as having potential areas for improvement, which could lead to cost savings and increased production efficiency. The project aims to analyze the existing supply chain processes, identify bottlenecks, and propose actionable improvements. Learners will apply their classroom knowledge of supply chain management, operations, and process optimization to conduct a thorough review. The project will involve mapping out the current supply chain, assessing the flow of materials, and evaluating supplier relationships. The goal is to develop a set of recommendations that can streamline operations and reduce lead times, ultimately enhancing the overall productivity of the facility.
The deliverables for this project will include a comprehensive report detailing the current supply chain processes, identified inefficiencies, and proposed improvements. Additionally, a presentation summarizing the findings and recommendations will be prepared for Canadian Metal Buildings' management team. The report should include process maps, data analysis, and a prioritized list of actionable steps to optimize the supply chain.
