This group is to analyze the case that was co-authored by Dr. Dawe with some assistance from a colleague at Arizona State University under sponsorship of the Distribution Business Management professional organization for their annual conference. It covers the logistics and inventory management, but also introduces the 3 resource networks we will study in the second half term: infrastructure, people and technology. The group is to assess the case to study their choices to design. align, and execute their logistics process to provide support for the chosen market strategy and accompanying OPSCM strategy. This group is highly encouraged to use the Alignment Matrix to prepare answers to the case study questions. Use this work area to share files, then also submit one consolidated report of your responses. Ask for assistance or clarification in the Wk#6 'Help' forum. Each member must submit work, the summary, or a note saying they participated in this assignment to receive the group score; otherwise, it will be assumed they did not participate. Answer these study questions in a minimum length of 1.5 ss page in a summary document of your findings. What is their competitive (market) strategy (A-Matrix row #1A) & their required OPSCM strategy (A-Matrix rows #2A & 2B). How do they execute the transportation portion of their logistics process? (A-Matrix row 6A) How do they execute the warehouse/DC portion of their logistics process? (A-Matrix row #6B) How do they manage the inventory planning portion of their entire supply channel?
