Risk #1: Losses caused by production stoppage in Ford Motor’s single source suppliers Risk Description Although single sourcing can create an efficient, low-cost supply chain model for many top manufacturers like Ford, dependence on a single source can also end up being quite costly for a company. If one of Ford’s single suppliers halts production on any key component for any reason, there will be adverse effects. As Ford reported in their 2014 annual 10-K filing, many of the components in their

As I was walking down the street, on my way to work, I was stopped by a young journalist, no older than 25 years old. He appeared to have been working for several days without rest. He had bags under his eyes, stains on his shirt that appeared to be at least two days old, and an unmistakable passion of someone who is trying to move up in the world. He asked me “what did you have to do to create a life for yourself here, and was it worth it?” He asked me one simple question, and that made me recall

V8 Engine - The engine represents the theme of teamwork and trust. In the engine it does not matter how effective each cylinder is independent of the others because if one cylinder is not functioning, the whole engine will not operate properly. This is similar to the eight rowers working in Joe’s boat, they must learn not just to row well on their own, but to row well as a boat. Joe learns he must trust the other boys in the boat, so they can work as a boat, instead of individuals. Peace Dollar

1) Since the injured plaintiff was not wearing a seatbelt, why is Ford being sued for failing to test the seatbelt sleeve? In the case of Branham v. Ford Motor Co., the Plaintiff brought the case against Hale, the driver, and Ford because the company failed to test the seat-belt sleeve, even though he did not "seriously pursue the claim against Hale" (Reed, Pagnattaro, Cahoy, Shedd & Morehead, 2012). The case against Ford was based on "two product liability claims: one for not testing the seat

Question 4 1. The ethical issues outlined in this case are whether Spc. Darby’s whistle-blowing decision was correct and if Spc. Sivits’s claims of obedience and rule following are sufficient for his decision to not blow the whistle. 2. The fear of repercussions of disobeying military orders should not be an allowable excuse for not whistle-blowing. From the utilitarian perspective actions are right insofar as they promote happiness and wrong as they bring the reverse of happiness: pain (Mill, 1910

Machine breakdowns within the manufacturing plant, caused delays and stoppages that lead to increased production times and decreased customer satisfaction (Sampson, 2004).

The first round of antibiotics didn’t wipe out the E. coli so we had to call my boyfriend’s aunt. She was a kidney doctor, so I told him that if the bacteria in my urethra and bladder crawled up my ureters, he was going to have to drive me six hours north to her nephrology practice in Sacramento. The first time we spoke on the phone, she spelled out the names of a dozen different species of bacteria and together we called the urgent care center I had visited on Tuesday.
