MANAGE YOUR SUPPLY CHAIN RISK
|
ANN ARBOR, MI,
 | 2012 Chrysler Team Matt Carson and Abey George |
July 9, 2013 - This white paper describes how two team projects from 2012 offered tools for their sponsoring company to manage their supply chain risk. For the Boeing team project, the Tauber students took a three-phase approach to developing and implementing a vastly powerful analytical tool for identifying and managing supply-chain risk: implement, improve, and transition. Implementation involved developing the VFM data collection survey. On the 2012 Chrsyler team project, students developed an analytical-based, action-promoting framework, with an emphasis on risk identification, prevention, and mitigation. The framework was created and implemented at the pilot level in conjunction with the Pentastar engine program. Read more here.
