ASSIGNMENT SCENARIO

Scenario

Mike Farnworth is the appointed BC Minister of Public Emergency Control. His ministry is responsible to ensure the Province of BC is fully prepared for any type of large natural disasters, such as earthquakes, floods or adverse weather conditions. Mike just completed a review of the existing operation and was shocked that while many studies have been done over the years, little actual activity has taken place. BC is clearly not prepared and Philip has turned to your consulting group to develop and implement a total plan as quickly as possible.

Details TO ADD

Plan must cover ALL areas of BC

• Determine what items must be stocked and where these should be located
• Determine the logistics method on how to get these supplies to local people as quickly as possible once the disaster has struck
• Must look at immediate need, short term need and long term need
• Plan must cover the following: earthquake, flooding and severe cold/snowy weather
• Plan must include shelter/housing for people and their pets

Mike has made it clear that cost must be considered when determining levels and locations of suppliers and it would be infeasible to have supplies located in each and every town or city in the Province so this fact must be taken into consideration in your plan.

Written report must be completed to a highly professional level which could be provided to any major firm or government agency. Clarity, appearance, content, spelling and grammar are all important aspects.

Where information is not provided you may make assumptions based upon business logic. These assumptions must be listed in your proposal under a separate page titled: Statement of Assumptions.
