PROJMGNT 7030 - Logistics & Supply Chain Management

North Terrace Campus - Trimester 2 - 2019

The objectives of this course are to develop an understanding of system support planning, ensuring logistics support is effectively considered in a system from a total life-cycle perspective and to understand the implications of an extended supply chain. The content includes the functions of the various components of logistics, logistics engineering and management, system design for supportability, through to continued assessment of the overall effectiveness of support throughout the system life-cycle. Integration of the supply chain, flow of information, materials, services, human resources and money across the supply chain, coordinating technology across tiered suppliers, creation of trust, enterprise architecture in the supply chain, waste and minimising transaction costs are also addressed.

The 最新糖心Vlog's policy on Assessment for Coursework Programs is based on the following four principles:

Assessment must encourage and reinforce learning.
Assessment must enable robust and fair judgements about student performance.
Assessment practices must be fair and equitable to students and give them the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned.
Assessment must maintain academic standards.

Assessment Related Requirements

Students should attend all classes in order to pass the course. There is considerable experiential learning in workshops during the intensive classes that build your knowledge and thus enable you to be successful in this course.

Course results are subject to moderation by the ECIC Board of Examiners.

Assessment Detail

Short Report #1
Select a business within a supply chain of your choice, then:
1. Describe the supply chain for your business of choice. Who are the suppliers, distributors and producers in this supply chain?
2. Describe the important trade-offs that exist in this supply chain. Why do you consider them to be important?

Select a system of your choice, then:
3. Briefly describe its purpose and the mission to be accomplished (i.e. operational scenario).

4. Identify and describe your system's logistics functions/ activities. Examples of the types of logistics functions/ activities you may wish to
describe include operational requirements, maintenance requirements, performance measures, capital assets, supply chain requirements, system installation (site), system upgrade, material recycling and/or disposal.

5. In your system, what is the relationship between reliability and maintainability? Reliability and human factors? Reliability and the supply chain? Human factors and the supply chain? Consider all the above cases in your answer.

Analysis of a Case Study
With reference to the Readings provided in MyUni, select one case study and answer the question(s) posed for that case study.

Short Report #2
Using the same business chosen in Assessment 1 (state what the business is):
1. Describe, and rank in importance, the transport modes that are part of this supply chain.
2. What are the different forms of collaboration that exist in this supply chain?
3. Describe the key applications of information technology in this supply chain.
4. Identify and briefly describe on emerging, innovative technology that could benefit this supply chain.
5. Discuss the role of production operations in the supply chain.
6. Given its current make-up, to what extent can this supply chain participate in the global economy? Are there changes that could be made to improve its performance in the global market place?

Assume you are designing and developing a new system (not the same system as that used in Assessment 1):
7. Provide a brief outline of your new system.
8. How would you design for:
    a. producibility,
    b. disposablity,
    c. quality, and
    d. the environment?

Report
Undertake an investigation into a selected "real world" situation, using all the relevant resources available, to enable you to discuss, in a report, what you consider to be the "top 10" key issues/ principles in Logistics and Supply Chain Management in relation to your selected situation.

Your potential "real world" situation should be discussed with your lecturer during the course opening intensive, and formally finalised, with the lecturer, during the course closing intensive.

Submission

All text based assignments must be submitted via MyUni.
Please refer to step by step instructions:

There are a few points to note about the submission of assignments:

Assignment Submission: Assignments should not be emailed to the instructor; they must be lodged via the MyUni Course site (unless specified to do both). Note that assignments may be processed via TURNITIN, which is an online plagiarism prevention tool.
Cover Sheet: Please include in the assignment a completed 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide Assessment Cover Sheet providing details of yourself and your team members (if applicable), your assignment, the course, date submitted, etc. as well as the declaration signed by you that this is your (your team’s) work. Note that the declaration on any electronically submitted assignment will be deemed to have the same authority as a signed declaration.
Backup Copy of Assignments: You are advised to keep a copy of your assignments in case the submitted copy goes missing. Please ensure that all assignment pages are numbered. If your assignment contains confidential information, you should discuss any concerns with the Course Lecturer prior to submission.
Extensions of Time: An application for Assessment Extension should be made well before the due date of the assignment to the Course Lecturer. Normally, extensions will only be granted for a maximum of two weeks from the original assignment submission date. Extensions will only be granted in cases of genuine medical, compassionate or extenuating circumstances.
Failure to submit: Failure to submit an assignment on time or by the agreed extension deadline may result in penalties and may incur a fail grade. Note that a late penalty of 5% of the total available marks for that assessment item will be incurred each day an assignment is handed in late (Unless otherwise stated in 'Assessment Related Requirements' or 'Assessment Detail' above). Assignments handed in after 14 days from the due submission date will fail even if a 100% mark is granted for the work.

Resubmission & Remarking
Resubmission of an assignment for remarking after reworking it to obtain a better mark will not normally be accepted. Approval for resubmission will only be granted on medical or compassionate grounds.

Student Feedback

The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

Fraud Awareness

Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.

The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide is committed to regular reviews of the courses and programs it offers to students. The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide therefore reserves the right to discontinue or vary programs and courses without notice. Please read the important information contained in the disclaimer.
