Critical Analysis Exercise

Introduction

In the previous week, everyone learners were allocated to work on a Nestle case study in which they researched as much about supply chain management as well as compared it to their assigned firms. This week, we've been tasked with critiquing each other's case study assignments. As a result, in this assignment, I will examine the strengths and weaknesses of my classmate's (author) research work. In addition, I will make some suggestions on the assignment in the upcoming paragraphs.

Analysis

The introduction was effective since the idea of supply chain management was described in the beginning of the case study report and supplemented with facts from a reliable source. Nestle coffee business information was given, and the thesis lines make it obvious that the author will utilise the Nestle case approach to examine the supply chain of Enbridge Inc. and identify concerns and obstacles in Nestle coffee company supply chain management. The introduction impressed me that it must be an excellent case study.

Critique on the assignment

Strengths: - In this section, the author says that the case study should include clear information on the issues and even some details about the firm. Furthermore, a case study will include all relevant facts regarding the situation from beginning to end. The author considered that suggestions should be presented at the end of the case study. It's a good thing the author defined the key components of every case study. According to the author, comprehensive introduction of the issue, background of the firm, suggestions, and conclusion should be presented in Enbridge Inc. case study. The writer was successful in creating a case study framework for his own research firm. Furthermore, the author informs the reader that the supply chain in each organisation is 70% different, with multiple pathways and requirements. They both pose the same danger to the company's product in the outset, but they don't follow the same path to the ultimate release. External research sources were used to cite and evaluate all the research.

Weakness: - The writer did not bring up the history of Enbridge Inc Firm, including what the business is about and what services or goods it offers. I had to Google this firm to learn more about it. The author noted in prior work that Enbridge Inc Company provides superior services than its rivals, but the assignment lacks specific details about what those goods are and how they vary from rivals.

Recommendations

The researcher did a wonderful job of presenting the case study and offering a case study framework. Because the writer was comparing Nestle coffee with Enbridge Inc, he should also include background information on both firms. Additional information on the Enbridge Inc Company, including how the present market is still performing well, must be provided. It was advised that Enbridge Inc Company get data on its rivals as well as market expansion, but the author could narrow down the methods by which Enbridge Inc Company should gather information. A corporation should examine internet reports of competing firms, their position, and reading a review of individuals is also a smart option.

Conclusion

To conclude, the assignment includes all the necessary elements. A case study was given in a clear and instructive manner. Given the facts supplied in the Nestle coffee case study, the writer contrasted the supply chain management of Nestle and Enbridge Inc Company. In other sections, the researcher misses the mark since he does not give information about the company's background or ways that the Enbridge Inc Company should apply knowledge from the Nestle case study. In a nutshell, I believe the writer's findings and explanations were realistic.
