Question 1

different option for creating a supply chain managment

a supply misses

Answer 1

enlargement = give more job to a supplier to satisfy a vacancy of a supplier
vertical integration = carry that out of myself
when the organization own the networks of supply
integration = i have the full controll
may decrease cost
investment = i have to invest to be able to do that
does not motivate to innovate / develop
loss in flexibility
monopolistic approach

Question 2

how to decide if is better to do or outsource ?

Answer 2

• strategically important ?
• specialized knowledge ?
• i have better performance (speed, quality, effitienty)
• field that improves a lot ?

if yes = in house if nope = outsorce

different from offshoring / reshoring

Question 3

dyadic vs triadyc interaction

Answer 3

dyadic = a linear interaction, strong, easy to manage
supplyers company customers

triadic = more importance on the supplier
is not the last step of the chain = more involved
links bte customers and suppliers
can improove the production and design

Question 4

timing of capacity/ managing the volume of production (capacity lead / lag demand)

Answer 4

how many products should we produce to be in line with the market ?
objective = following the forecasted demand

CAPACITY LEAD DEMAND= produce big batch that satisfy the market for a period of time
we must store them = leads to overstoking
early investment
solution = smaller batches

CAPACITY LAG DEMAND = produce big batches afret the market asked for them
i produce only what the market asked
Always sufficient ask but infufficient capacity to meet the ask
longer waiting time
no overstoking
solution = smaller batches

should be a mix of the two = sometimes lead some times lags, some overstoking but small, customers has to wait but less

I HAVE TO IDENTIFY MY MARKET AND UNDERSTAND IF MY CUSTOMERS ARE WILLING TO WAIT

Question 5

why i should move / potentiality to moove

Answer 5

if there is a change in demand or supply
if there are these factors
- capital requirement (incentivi, silicon valley)
- market factor = close to the customer to be fast and optimize the product based on the place u go
- cost = cheap production
- future flexibility = open new market
