Explain why it is important for organisations to continue innovating this product, how this innovation impacts the supply chain and the type(s) of product innovation categories this product went through during its lifecycle. This will need to be explained in relation to the chapters covered in the textbook.
3. Research and explain all the necessary external entities for delivering product.
4. Research and explain how the needed supplies can be made sustainable for protecting the continuous flow of that product.
5. Draw a detailed computerised process map/model that can incorporate your ideas about how supply can be made sustainable. The process map/model should take into perspective the range of interactions between organisations, suppliers and customers when seeking to deliver supplies.
More information will be provided in the briefing document which will be distributed and discussed in week 1.
