The case study at the end of Chapter 1 presents several decisions Dr. Smart has to make about the supply chain for his small cleaning device. We are treating this as a DOE for three reasons. 1 - to illustrate how an engineering perspective can inform a supply chain decision. 2 - to intentionally explore the relationships between the decisions Dr. Smart has to make. 3 - to make sure that as a class we cover some boundaries on the trade space and don't all argue for the same decision. Scenario 1 is a fully Agile supply chain. Scenario 2 is a fully Lean supply chain. Scenarios 3 through 6 are different types of Hybrid supply chains. In class we will assign one scenario to each person. Your task is to use what you know from reading Chapter 1, plus any other knowledge you want to bring to bear, to assess your assigned scenario. You will either decide that it's a good idea, in which case you will justify it, or that it's a bad idea, in case you will explain why. Some guidance: 1. Use the constructs from chapter 1 to make your case. 2. In a DOE assessment you look at main effects and two-way effects, while assuming everything else is negligible. Use the same approach here. What are the main effects of the variable settings you've got to work with? Are there any interaction effects you are paying attention to? in my scenario there is a Intel Long-term Contract, the robotic arm supplier is ABB, Development Center Location is in India and Distribution Center Location are separate. Do you think if it is a fully lean supply chain strategy and optimizes the cost?
