Background: One key purpose of the "Beer Game" is to illustrate the importance of information sharing between partners that are part of any given supply chain. The idea of information sharing is inherently obvious, however, appears to be much more difficult to achieve in practice. The intent of the briefing analysis is to identify three specific practical examples of where information sharing of some sort has been successfully implemented by companies as parts of larger supply chains. Assignment: Prepare a two-page Briefing Analysis, including conclusions and recommendations. You are specifically to: ● ● Examine available literature to identify three practical examples of where sharing of information has been successfully applied between partners involved in a supply chain. ch practical example, you need to outline briefly what sort of information been shared and how it has been shared. For each practical example identified, you need to be able to note the names of at least the major supply chain partners involved. You also need to justify your answers, and are required to include at least three additional cited references.
