Operations Management and Decision-Making Models

Assessment brief

Using the two quotations presented on the next page as an initial focus point, comprehensively answer each of these questions:

1. Amazon began as an on-line book retailer. How has it grown to be known as the "everything store"?

2. What aspects of Amazon's operations management are based on the increased globalisation of world trade?

3. Amazon's marketplace focuses on smaller sellers and manufacturers by linking them with a huge customer base and fulfillment program. Can e-commerce ever truly replace the in-person shopping experience?

4. What are (or could be) the real long-term implications of the increased presence of Amazon to the Australian Retail Industry?

You are expected to conduct sufficient research into the topics that will help you construct your answers, and the research is to be used to support your statements and assertions. As a guide, you are expected to use a minimum of 5 references per question. The use of contemporary (recent) publications will be valued in assessing the quality of research. The references must be authoritative and not sourced from Wikipedia, Slideshare, Businessballs or other non-academic sources.

The Harvard Referencing System must be used for the references and citations.

Hi, there are 2 major changes to be done., told by my lecturer 1. There should be British language used instead of America english for ex. In British Eng spelling is "organisation" whereas in Us it is "organization" so as we write in British english it has to be changed in the whole assignment wherever applicable. 2. The answers provided to questions are not relevant and the answers provided to the questions don't convey the exact meaning. Hope to get it back tomorrow so that i dont miss the deadline. Thanks
