current work with
emphasis on how the
student can further
improve in future.
Both Executive Summary and Introduction of the Chosen Organization could
have been better covered. The answer also could have explained the
importance of effective supply chain management in achieving organizational
objectives in detail. The answer talks on various business functions but it
needed to elaborate and detail on the link between supply chain management
and business functions in the own/chosen organization. The answer needed to
clearly state and highlight the various key drivers that are moving the chosen
organization towards implementing an integrated supply chain.
