Before beginning your discussion posts, you must first read, at a minimum, Ch 12, Managing Inventories in Supply Chains, Ch 13 (Sections 1, 3, 4, 5),

Supply Chain

Management, and an article about a recent event news from the last

ten years) that relates directly to the chapter's concepts and talk about challenges in supply chain management. Connect your article to the textbook concepts and the questions below in your posts, and properly cite your sources.

You may use news websites, newspaper articles, or news videos. I am looking forward to some great discussions.

1. In your first post, discuss the following two (2) components:

A. Challenges in managing supply chains (OR supply chain inventories)

related to your article.

B. What risks are (or were) there, and what risk management actions were (or were not) taken? (And discuss tactical or strategic risks or both)

NOTE: Your first post must be no less than 300 words. And remember, what have you learned in this class related to the current event in your article?

2. Post a reply (response) to a classmate's original post. Remember.

simply agreeing or disagreeing with the post is not considered thoughtful or of high quality. You are encouraged to engage in conversation with one another beyond the minimum requirements as well.
