When designing a supply network, which of the following stages should be completed first?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

The correct sequence for designing a supply network is:

Determine strategic objectives

Confirm the network scope

Analyse potential risks

Determine the approach for managing material and information flow

Track material and information flow

Since network scope defines the boundaries, scale, and overall structure of the network, it must be confirmed first. (LO 1.1, See p.3)

I thought analyzing potential risks was crucial, but I guess it depends on the context of the network design.

I feel like tracking information flow is something that happens later in the process, but I could be mistaken.

I remember a practice question where we had to determine the approach for managing material flow first, but I can't recall if that's the right order here.

I think we should confirm the network scope first, but I'm not entirely sure if analyzing risks comes before that.
