For this assignment, each student will choose a supply chain management problem to solve using the techniques learned in the course. The paper should be $5-7$ pages in length and will be graded based on the following rubric:

$$ Introduction $(10\%)$: Clearly state the problem and the significance of solving it in the context of supply chain management.

$$ Analysis $(40\%)$: Use at least three techniques learned in the course to analyze the problem and propose a solution. Explain the rationale behind the choice of techniques and show the calculations involved.

$$ Application $(20\%)$: Apply the proposed solution to the specific problem given, and discuss any limitations and assumptions made.

$$ Discussion $(20\%)$: Discuss the implications and potential impact of the proposed solution on the supply chain system, and provide recommendations for further improvement.

$$ Writing and Formatting $(10\%)$: The paper should be well$-$organized, written in clear and concise language, and properly formatted with appropriate citations and references.
