Supply Chain Management (100 points)


Al Baik must ship replacement parts for their ovens, and the supply chain manager must choose between two shipping alternatives: two-day freight, and five-day freight. Using five-day freight saves 750 Riyal (SAR), but the primary consideration is holding cost, which is 38 Riyal per unit per year. Al Baik must ship 2000 units. In a 4-5-page paper, which alternative would you recommend to the supply chain manager and why?


Be sure to use at least two current, scholarly references beyond any required course readings. Current sources are those published within the most recent five-year period, and scholarly sources are those from peer-reviewed journals.


Make certain for each listed reference that you have at least one supporting citation in the body of your content. Your reference page is always the last page of the submission where all individual references get listed. The Saudi Digital Library is a good resource to search for these references. Submit your presentation into the Assignment Dropbox.

The ovens are an important aspect of everyday life so for a customer having some defect in the oven means cannot cook food and a supply chain manager is responsible for fixing this kind of customer issues. A supply chain manager is also responsible for properly calculating the profit or loss ratio for shipping their products and trying to earn and save as much money as possible. In this case, it is evident that for shipping the oven parts by Al Baik supply chain management there are mainly two alternative ideas one is two-day freight while another option is the five-day freight.
Situation
In this case, we can see that the holding cost for each of the oven items is 38 riyal. So for a bulk production, this holding cost in the inventory may lead to a huge expense for the company.
