DUE DATE: 27 MAY 2024

LEARNING OBJECTIVE

The purpose of this assignment is to test your knowledge of and insight into the contents of part 2 of
your prescribed book, “Designing operations and supply chains”, and the first part of part 3 of your
prescribed book, “Managing operations and supply chains”.

The assignment covers chapter 5 (“Goods and service design”); chapter 6 (“Supply chain design”);
chapter 7 (“Process selection, design, and improvement”); chapter 8 (“Facility and work design”); and
chapter 9 (“Forecasting and demand planning”).

2.1 GOODS AND SERVICE DESIGN

2.1.1 Research and write a short paper (approximately 1.5 typed pages) advocating for customer-
focused design.

Note: The section in your prescribed textbook under the heading “Customer-focused design”
introduces the concept briefly. Your task is to research this subject area further. Among other
sources, your research may include your prescribed textbook and/or other relevant textbooks
and/or articles and/or online searches.

2.1.2 Assume you are the new owner of a franchised Nando’s fast-food outlet. The outlet you have
purchased allows for customers to be serviced via three different channels, namely:

• Sit-down customers who walk into your outlet, sit at a table, and order from the menu through
waiters servicing the tables.
• Customers who walk into the outlet and order from the menu on a take-away basis, and then
wait for their food to be prepared and hander over.
• Customers who order from the menu on a take-away basis using the drive-through. These
customer’s order from the menu, on a take-away basis, whilst in their car. They then wait for
the food to be prepared and handed over.

2.2 SUPPLY CHAIN DESIGN

2.2.1 When making location decisions for different types of operations, a variety of location factors need
to be carefully considered. Based on your understanding of two different types of operations,
namely, an open-pit coal mine and a coffee shop, provide an argument for why different site
selection location factors would need be considered for each of these operations respectively.

Note: Support your answer with a few valid examples of typical site selection for each operation
respectively.

2.2.2 Should a supply chain be configured as a push system or a pull system? With reference to the
relevant trade-offs between these two approaches, motivate your answer? (4
