Mengxue Ni commented on the post, 100 second reflection for week 13, on the site 8 years, 4 months ago
Last week, we started the global supply chain simulation. We finished year 1 together during class time. It is an interesting game, I am getting better and better from each round. We skipped a lot details in the first year. I feel like all the discussion of customers and broad members are important as well. The votes of broad members are very hard…[Read more]

They had to create more positions to maintain the relationships between all the vendors. It leads to next challenge which is 2.) Cost is high, many employees’ pos…[Read more]

According to the diagram, I believe that MIS professionals need to understand supply chains, because they have to know the flow of the supply chain before starting developing. Since all the activities are related to supply chain, it will be extremely difficult even impossible for MIS professionals to continue working on the SAP SCM if they are not…[Read more]

Last week, we talked about the Crocs case. The flexible supply chain strategy was the most impressive part for me. Instead of having a specific amount of inventory each season, they produced product based on customer’s need. If people love this style of shoes, they would produce more to fulfill the market. They broke the traditional supply chain s…[Read more]

“Rising Airline Crash Fatalities Making 2014 Even More of an Aberration“-The New York Times
Last week, after Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 was shot down over Ukraine, The Upshot published a chart of air fatalities and noted that:
There have been only six years since 1946 with fewer than 600 fatalities: 1955, 2004, 2008, 2011, 2012 and 2013. Because it is still only July, the number of deaths seems likely to rise above 600 this year. Yet there still have been only nine other years with fewer than 800 fatalities.
With two more crashed airliners this week, we’ve updated that chart. The number of fatalities is now 757.
