Homework #6 Your job is to insert at least two references to the literature in this paragraph. You may already have something in your References list you can use. Also, you do not relate to the U.S. Army SCM. More please. Purchasing Military clients and producers were conditioned different from customers and producers of the consumer goods. The current consumer products have disproved the normal notion of reliability to be limited by amount of money one has the will to spend while producing and purchasing. Due to pressure on market demand and completion level, they are impetus on ultra-reliability of consumer products (Chae, B., Olson, D., & Sheu, C.2014). However, this is not the main reason to why such products are highly reliable. The reason tends to be conscious decisions made by the producers while designing and building the highly reliable products. The traditional ways focused on modification and improved ways toward creation of products. It was very expensive for the consumer product company to tweak an existing design with an aim to achieve high reliability (Kov?cs, G., & Tatham, P. 2009). The companies were able to create highly reliable products by the process of changing the company process and incorporate design for reliability. References Chae, B., Olson, D., & Sheu, C. (2014) The impact of supply chain analytics on operational performance: A resource-based view Kov?cs, G., & Tatham, P. (2009) Responding To Disruptions In The Supply Network From Dormant To Action That done, now I want you to write a little story about what went wrong with purchasing from the point of view of SCM. I don t care if it is real or fiction. You can cite a person communication to validate it because nobody can check a personal communication. Specifically. mention a product that failed on the battlefield because the purchasing process screwed up, probably because some contractor who wanted to get on the list of military suppliers vastly underbid competitors and then produced a crappy product that failed on the battlefield. The Abrams tank comes to mind. Guzzled about 100 gallons of gas and minute and couldn t hit the side of a barn at point blank range.
