Risk Management. Risk management is a critical
aspect of project management. The supply chain
decisions that are made have risk involved like
any other project decision. Comment on two
examples of risks that can occur in the supply
chain that can affect a project. What can you do
as a project manager to reduce or eliminate the
risks that you defined? Provide professional
examples, if at all possible, from a project you
have managed or of which you have been a team
member.

INF 336 Week 2 Assignment Article Review
INF 336 Week 1 DQ 2 Organizational Structure
  Organizational Structure. The structure of an
organization can influence the overall success of
a project from initiation to closure. Identify if
your organization is centralized or decentralized
and evaluate benefits and weaknesses of the
structure. Would you change from centralized or
decentralized to meet the needs of your projects?
Why or why not? Respond to at least two of your
classmates? posts.

  Supply Process Improvements. Examine the
steps of the supply process in Chapter 4 of the
text and identify a project where improvements
could be made in one or more of the steps. Would
the project have been more successful with the
implementation of any or all of these steps in
the supply process?
Outsourcing. The process of outsourcing the
creation of a product or a service is a
controversial, yet critical strategic decision
for many employers. Describe one example from
your professional experience, or that you are
familiar with, where a process or function was
outsourced. What are the financial implications
of this change? Did the quality of the product or
service stay the same, improve, or

  Need Definition. From the end of Chapter 6,
complete the following questions out of the
section titled Questions for Review and
Discussion. Each question should be thoroughly
answered in a minimum of 150 words, using support
from the text and examples when appropriate. a.
Why is it preferable to separate need
identification and defining commercial
equivalents into two separate stages? b. Why is
early supply/supplier important? c. What are the
disadvantages of specifying by performance? What
are the advantages? d. How does a supply
professional know that a certain requirement is
strategic?  
Capital Goods. A project manger needs to
understand the importance of the acquisition of
capital goods. There are many choices for capital
good procurement, including buying or leasing new
equipment, or buying used equipment. Describe an
example from the text or your personal
professional experience where your project or
organization had to procure capital goods for
strategic reasons. What was the type of equipment
(new, used) and how was it purchased? Please

INF 336 Week 4 Assignment Case 11-3 Budget
INF 336 Week 3 DQ 2 Quality
  Quality. Suitability and reliability are two
examples of quality in terms of buying materials,
goods or services. Provide an example of a best
buy from your professional experience where
quality aspects were not met in accordance to the
text definition of quality dimensions. What
aspect of quality could be improved for future
projects?
Case 11-3 Budget. Refer to the City of Granston
Case 11-3 at the end of Chapter 11. Using the
Current Year Q-3? data found in Exhibit 2 and
Exhibit 3, create a project supply and materials
budget based on the information in the case. Your
budget must include a one paragraph introduction
on the importance of a materials supply
budget. This can be submitted in a MS Word

sheet with a clear one-paragraph introduction on
the importance of a materials and supply budget.

INF 336 Week 4 DQ 2 Target Pricing
INF 336 Week 4 DQ 1 Procuring Services
Procuring Services. Many projects need to
procure services to execute successfully no
matter what industry you are in. There is a
personal relationship with the service provider,
which makes collaboration much more important
than when selecting goods products. Describe a
project you have been involved with, or have
knowledge of, where services were a major part of
the deliverables. How were references checked for
service suppliers and what lessons were learned
from the process? What contributing factors
ultimately led to the service supplier being
selected?
Target Pricing. Target pricing is experiencing
growing use in North America. Should businesses
use target pricing? Do you think target pricing
can only be used for manufactured goods, or can
it also be applied to services? Defend your
choices. Respond to at least two of your
classmates? posts

Sustainability. Sustainability is an important
ethical and environmental issue in purchasing.

can contribute to sustainability in a project you
have been involved with, or in your current
organization. Describe how these decisions enable
the organization to avoid violations in terms of
environmental issues.
  Liability. Personal liability is a serious
issue in purchasing and supply management.
Provide details from the text or your personal
experience where a supply officer or project
manager has been held personally liable for
conditions of a contract. Comment on how you will

liability for contracts if at all possible. The
text provides excellent examples
