Module 3: Make It: Manufacturing and Operations - ASU's W. P. Carey School

Module 3 Make It: Manufacturing and Operations Part 3 of 12 Manufacturing is a key supply chain function, but one that many students find a bit intimidating. This episode tries to demystify manufacturing by looking at manufacturing plants that are probably just down the street. What is the tie between research and development, product design, manufacturing, and procurement? What about outsourcing manufacturing? What do modern operations and manufacturing managers need to consider? This is the 3rd installment in Arizona State University's twelve-part introduction to supply chain management video series developed by Eddie Davila, Jeff Hough, Randy Cates, Dawn Feldman, Dan Ichikawa, Ian Schmoel, and Matt Hardy. ASU, the W. P. Carey School of Business, and the Supply Chain Management Department are proud and happy to share this video series with supply chain management departments, supply chain instructors, career specialists in high schools and universities, as well as industry leaders in an effort to inspire a new generation of supply chain management professionals across the country and around the world.
