CLASS - Continuing on with our discussion on using technology I would like to suggest each of you do some research on the use of technology to improve business operations in an area of interest for you. Share your findings and relate it to this topic by explaining how the use of that technology (For example, research on companies using CAD, CAE, CIM, robots, software or other technology innovations) has actually allowed the business to improve their production or operations management.
Identify some interesting facts about the supply chain, the value chain, operations management or quality management where this technology had an impact.
Please use the following format:
1. Summarize your facts mentioned above for the class...it is acceptable to include a quote or two but do not just quote from your articles. Offer at least 2-3 sentences IN YOUR OWN WORDS explaining your research findings and carefully explain how your example relates to our week 6 topics.
2. Share the URL to the source you found - remember Wikipedia is NOT an acceptable source for this assignment!
3. Do you feel this technology choice was a good choice for this company? If yes, explain why. If not, explain why.
