Apple Operation Design

Apple is facing a number of challenges related to its production and delivery issues. One of the major problems is the shortage of lithium, a key component of Apple's lithium-ion batteries, which is necessary for the production of its iPhones, iPads, and other electronic devices. Furthermore, the company recently closed its Shanghai factory due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which has impacted its global production capabilities. This has created a ripple effect throughout the supply chain and has led to delays in the delivery of products to customers.

(Please expand and include production shortages in the paragraph above please)

example/suggestion: the overall phone manufacturing will be slowed down

Apple laying off so many workers were also a productivity issue.

Thank you!
