this is the introduction for the case
You have been hired as a group of SCM consultants to evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of Wal-Mart’s supply chain and how it can improve its Supply Chain Management (SCM) practices in the future. For the past thirty years, Wal-Mart has been a pioneer of innovative SCM practices and technologies and is regarded by many as having one of the most efficient and low-cost supply chains in the world. However, it is facing a number of recent strategic challenges that have caused some to question its long term viability, especially with the growth of low-cost discount retailers, Amazon’s highly efficient distribution centres, online/mobile shopping, rising labour costs, food safety concerns, government regulations, and sustainability/environmental issues. Your group has been asked to produce a detailed Executive Report about how Wal-Mart’s Supply Chain Management practices could be improved in the future. The report is based on the “Wal-Mart Case Study” from Harvard Business School.
