Your boss has come to you and told you that the board members of your company have always been curious as to what exactly a operations manager is, and they don't understand how it is a different job from a supply chain manager.
You have been asked to develop a short presentation on comparing and contrasting operations management to supply chain management.
- Create a 5-7 slide presentation for the board members
- Compare how operations management is similar to supply chain management
- Consider: forecasting, scheduling, managing inventories, locating (alocation of) facilities
- Describe how operations management and supply chain management are different
- Consider: production, distribution, quality assurance
- Include other similarities and differences that you feel are important
- Include your speaker notes on each slide so your boss can familiarize himself with your presentation before you present it to the board members.
Note: Please go into detail about each aspect you cover and do not simply list them.
