Colorado OPS510 Operations Supply Chain Management

OPS 510 Colorado State University Operations Supply Chain Management Paper

The Operations Supply Chain Management assignment content must include the following:

1. 2.1 Introduction: Explain the purpose or thesis of the paper and explain how the body of the paper is arranged to support the purpose of the paper.

2.2 Provide a brief definition of Supply Chain Management and identify why it is important in an organization's operations.

2.3 Provide a brief overview description of the Supply Chain Management Simulation including the targeted goals of the simulation.

1. 2.4 Describe specifics about the model or approach used as the basis for your strategy in performing the Supply Chain Management Simulation; in an appendix, include an illustrated (worked-out) example of a formula, calculation, or technique developed as a central part of your Supply Chain Management Simulation strategy.

2.5 Describe at least three operations Supply Chain Management methods, principles, or techniques experienced in the Supply Chain Management Simulation.

• 2.6 Clearly describe your simulation results and indicate how well they met the targeted simulation goals.
• 2.7 Itemize at least three lessons learned from the Supply Chain Management Simulation and describe how this understanding is important for a career in operations management.
• 2.8 Conclusion should present a recap of key points and summary of main emphasis without repeating verbatim and exclusive of new information.
• 2.9 References should include at least two current scholarly references (published within the past five years) in addition to the course text.
• 2.10 Appendices:
• 2.10.1 Illustrated (worked-out) Supply Chain Management example.
• 2.10.2 Supply Chain Management Simulation results including the rubric evaluation metrics (i.e. units and costs).
• Submit your Critical Thinking Assignment document to the Module 5 submissions area established for this purpose. Per the assignment rubric, a portion of your evaluation is based on your simulation results.
• Option #1: Operations Supply Chain Management Simulation and Paper
• This Critical Thinking Assignment option consists of two activities: (1) Performing the Pearson MyOMLab (Links to an external site.) Supply Chain Management Simulation and (2) a written Operations Supply Chain Management paper.

Your written Operations Supply Chain Management paper must contain titled sections corresponding to the content requirements designated in the Operations Supply Chain Management Common Instructions section above.
