 Create a 10-slide PowerPoint presentation to explain a selected company's transportation and warehousing strategy to potential investors and lenders.

Supply chain managers coordinate all of the activities in the supply chain process into a seamless network. The transportation function of the supply chain focuses on the movement and delivery of goods and services in the supply chain network from suppliers to manufacturers to the ultimate consumers. Decisions must be made as to which mode of transportation is used to move products along with the type of warehousing systems that will be used. Many companies are choosing to outsource their supply chain to companies such as UPS.

For this assessment, consider that you work for a company that develops and sells case studies and case study analyses. Your company's primary customers are colleges and universities wanting to use them within their courses, but your company also has customers using them for management training and development. Your manager asked you to conduct research and develop a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation to explain your selected company's transportation and warehousing strategy to potential investors and lenders. She's specifically interested in you creating the presentation associated with one of a small set of possibilities she provided to you. You may use the same company you selected in Assessment 3 or select a different company from this list:

  • L. L. Bean.
  • Amazon.com.
  • Starbucks.
  • Intel.
  • Johnson and Johnson.

Create a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation to explain your selected company's transportation and warehousing strategy to potential investors and lenders.

You and your manager discussed the high level outline of your presentation and agreed you should address the following items. As the basis for your research you can use any of the resources noted in this course, in the Capella library, and on the Internet.

  • Slide 1: List the presentation title, the selected company name, the date, and your name.
