Prepare a short research paper explaining: Your company’s (I picked Amazon) operations are based in the USA. You need to explain how to source computer chips which will be used in the manufacturing of the computers for your company who is planning to build them in China (Operations). Please explain the process of global sourcing, outsourcing, supplier qualification process and whether you will manufacture overseas due to the plan to build the computers in China. Please explain how your company’s supply chain will flow and why you have designed it that way. Explain the key decisions you made and what factors they were based on. Explain how those decisions will impact the operations in your supply chain across the globe. Identify all companies you will be considering as vendors and explain why you selected them (Integration).
ADVICE: I would also recommend going through the main chapters in your book on topics like global sourcing/outsourcing/finding suppliers/qualifying suppliers and build your paper using those chapters as stepping stones. If you would like to include a supplier scorecard as an Appendix, maybe that is an idea (but not a requirement). Is your company ISO certified? Are you searching for ISO suppliers? If not- is that not an important consideration for your company for a certain reason or due to the product? Please refer back to the At A Glance pages if you need quick highlights of the Chapter content!

I ran across this cool link this morning and wanted to share it! I thought you may just come back to this when you are ready to start working on your research papers, it reviews verb tense and has a link to MLA Guide. The MLA Guide is pretty cool- you can click the headings you need, then just type in the book, or electronic source.
