Individual Case Study

OPM 301 Case 5 (HAND-Written, Individual submission) CASE 5A: Using Drones as SCM logistic channel Using drones to drop off packages could be great for buyers who might want to get certain items as fast as humanly possible. Back in 2013, when Amazon revealed plans to begin delivering packages via flying drones through Prime Air, some seemed skeptical about the reality of deploying such a system. Recently, Amazon doubled down on those claims by releasing information on one of its new drones in action, and it is seriously impressive. A new video presented by former Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson (who is working on a show for Amazon) takes us through the entire process, from ordering, to warehouse launch, to delivery. The new drone looks a lot different from the one Amazon showed us a couple of years ago. This one has a more commercial and streamlined look, and instead of showing the package hanging in open air, the new drone hides the item in a square compartment. Just Google "Amazon…

Bill Lewis, manager of the Thomas Electronics Division, called a meeting with his controller, Brindon Peterson, and his marketing manager, Patty Fritz. The following is a transcript of the conversation that took place during the meeting: Bill: Brindon, the variable costing system that you developed has proved to be a big plus for our division. Our success in winning bids has increased, and as a result our revenues have increased by 25%. However, if we intend to meet this year’s profit targets, we are going to need something extra—am I right, Patty? Patty: Absolutely. While we have been able to win more bids, we still are losing too many, particularly to our major competitor, Kilborn Electronics. If we knew more about their bidding strategy, we could be more successful at competing with them. Brindon: Would knowing their variable costs help? Patty: Certainly. It would give me their minimum price. With that knowledge, I’m sure that we could find a way to beat them on several jobs,…

Article: (Email) Hello Frederick, While you were in London, I went through your notes, and you came up with a potential design for bigger cargo that would have enabled twice as many parcels to be kept in the cargo hold. However, Rockfish notified me through email that they had been unsuccessful in their effort to get a contract with a new company because they were unable to provide prices that were reasonable enough for the volume of huge products that needed to be delivered. I'm simply curious whether you were purposely impeding the company's success since you knew it would promote your career by assuring you a promotion.
