Programme Overview

Operations and Procurement are some of the key activities within a Supply Chain that allow an organisation to deliver goods and services that meet customer demand. Through the lessons, assessments, and learning assignments, students will examine the processes that enable these key Supply Chain activities. Topics covered will include Supply Chain planning, procurement processes, manufacturing operations, operations within service organisations, and how quality impacts operations and procurement processes. 

Learning Outcomes

  1. Analyse the supply chain planning process including variations, trade-offs, inputs, and outputs.
  2. Assess procurement strategies that impact risk, sustainability, and the process of selecting and managing supplier relationships.
  3. Evaluate manufacturing operation constraints and bottlenecks, and performance measurement in the supply chain processes.
  4. Outline strategies to manage performance and customer relationships within service organisations’ supply chain processes.
  5. Demonstrate the importance of quality within the supply chain and apply standardised tools for continuous quality improvement.
