Hello I need help with my supply chain assignment. . Will you be able to help. We need to identify one Autralian originated firm.

You need to identify one Australian firm in the application of the weekly topics mentioned in the class. This will require a very brief description of the organisation and the products or services it provides. The selected firms include manufacturers, agricultural producers, wholesalers/retailers, hospitals, medical clinics, health care providers, call centres, retail stores, schools, IT design, infrastructure, telecommunications providers, government, hotels, childcare providers, financial services, engineering consulting, marketing, transportation and distribution, etc.

You are required to identify the critical issues related to supply chain management. Providing supportive resources, including primary or secondary data from the selected firm, would be useful to describe the problems you identified. It is better to use some techniques mentioned in the class for analysing a problem and provide a detailed action plan to improve an organisation's performance over a period of 12 months. The report should be written concisely and structured in the following way:

1) Organisation selection - this section briefly describes background research and the organisation identified.

2) Problem identification and analysis - this part mainly identifies the issues faced by the organisation. Adoption of appropriate method/technique is useful for analysis, such as cause-effect analysis, value chain framework, etc.

3) Recommendation/Implementation - this portion describes at least two recommendations based on the problem identified in the previous section. The recommendations have to be specific and practical. It includes a diagram showing the detailed activities, activity duration, milestones, and ensures that the implementation is accomplished on time and the problems are solved. The implementation plan shows the step by step approach required to cope with the issues.

4) References and appendices - in this section, it involves at least seven good quality of peer-reviewed journal articles, such as Journal of Operations Management, Production and Operations Management, Supply Chain Management: An International Journal, Journal of Supply Chain Management, International Journal of Operations and Production Management, International Journal of Physical Distribution and Logistics Management, Production, Planning & Control, OMEGA: The International Journal of Management Science, Operational Research, Manufacturing & Service Operations Management, Transportation, Transportation Research Part A: Policy and Practice, Transportation Research Part B: Methodological, Transportation Research Part C: Emerging Technologies, Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment, Transportation Research Part E: Logistics and Transportation Review, Journal of Cleaner Production, Purchasing & Supply Management, International Journal of Logistics Management, and other similar A/A*-ranking journals (check 2019 ABDC list: https://abdc.edu.au/research/abdc-journal-list/).
