What do you think is causing Braddock's problem?
I believe the underlying problem lies with Braddock’s new metal supplier. Ms. McCarthy believes that one of her employees, Shorty McCune is behind the incidents but I don’t believe so. Her concerns about McCune are only stipulations. If Shorty McCune was in fact drinking on the job, then that should be handled. Braddock’s problem is product quality control when it comes to inventory. Efficient product quality control was not present when Braddock changed their new supplier of raw materials. Braddock should have inspected this new batch of raw metal especially because the price was extremely lower than before. Also, Braddock maintains a supply of large sheets for the construction model for seven

    Therefore productivity at the offshore location needs to be increased. I will direct to get the audit standard back on track for two reasons: assess the actual possible production capacity and to investigate the violation of labor laws. We are aware about this supplier’s violation of labor law and it is our responsibility to do our best to control and impede this. An increase in labor cost due the ordered audit is acceptable because we can avoid negative media attention which would very likely result in lower customer satisfaction and decreasing demand. At the same time, it is important that we look for alternatives for our existing offshore supplier.…

    Decisions for Year 3 were more challenging, I think this is so because I now have a total understanding of the simulation.

    Following the groundbreaking and overwhelmingly momentous Supreme Court ruling in Brown v. Board of Education, the “separate but equal” policy was officially held unconstitutional. While many celebrated the decision as a testament to upholding racial equality, Southern white nationalists were not so thrilled with the decision. Thus, they created and submitted the Southern Manifesto, a legislative document condemning Brown as a violation of the balance of constitutional power between the nation and states. Moreover, in the Manifesto legislators contended that the “separate but equal” policy had become a “way of life” (Southern Manifesto on Integration) for the United States and that this decision “destroyed the amicable relations between…

    Organizational Culpability It is mind blowing how one of the Big Three major American automotive companies such as General Motors could neglect such a crucial procedure as reporting a safety issue. Wealth inequality became present, and clear, when the company decided that it would be too costly to immediately fix the problem. Instead, they decided to prioritize their profit over the lives of the individuals, in this case – their customers. The neglect continued for years until they were informed of the first fatal crash. They then tried to cover this up by not investigating it and they still didn’t make the recall until many years later.…

    Stella Liebeck Murder

    The biggest surprise to me was that Mrs. Stella Liebeck never asked for anything more than just what she could not cover medically, and for McDonalds to look into it so this did not happen to anyone else. The extent of her injuries was also a surprise. Learning the fact that she was a passenger and her nephew had pulled over while they got situated did change my perspective. I do believe that it was Mrs. Liebeck’s fault for spilling the coffee, however McDonalds had been aware of several incidents that had occurred with their coffee causing severe burns. Before reviewing the fact, my opinion was that people would sue for anything and that it was all Mrs. Liebeck’s fault for spilling the coffee.…
