S. Desa, TIM 172Q, 2/22/22 TIM 172Q Project Phase 3 (due Tuesday 1 March 2022). Project Phase 3 Deliverables (please remember to use a structured problem-solving process in all your work; a substantial part of each task needs to be performed by the team working together as a cohesive unit.): 1. Demand forecasting for years 3 and 4. This task was assigned in Phase 2, but most groups still have errors in their forecasting. Your team will need to meet to carefully discuss and review your demand forecasting results, justify your demand estimates (for quarters 1-8) and forecasting results (for quarters 1-16), provide comprehensive plots, and error analysis; properly explain all your work; and draw meaningful conclusions from your results within the context of the supply chain for your product in your company. 2. Cycle and Safety Inventory for your product’s supply chain. (Part of this task was assigned in Phase 2, and, if the previous work was correctly executed, you can transfer it to Phase 3.) Starting with the network representation of your product’s supply chain, create and implement a process for performing cycle and safety inventory management for at least three key subsystems of your product; and for the finished product. This task involves more than mere number crunching. You will have to clearly set up the context, perform a complete set of cycle and safety inventory calculations, interpret the results, and draw appropriate conclusions relative to your specific product in your company. 3. Financial Modeling . Create a comprehensive financial model to determine the expected profit for your product based on a five-year NPV analysis. You will first need to revisit and justify all inputs used in your base case financial model, e.g., development cost, production cost, etc. Then, you will need to use the base case to perform a detailed set of sensitivity analyses, including deriving relevant trade-off laws for your product. Be sure to properly explain your work and draw meaningful conclusions from your results. 4. Project Backlog. Each group has a backlog consisting of tasks that are either partially complete or partially correct. First, based on our assessment of your Proposal, Phase 1, and Phase 2 progress reports (Phase 2 will be available on Thursday, 2/24), create a comprehensive time-phased “backlog table,” showing what still needs to be done on each deliverable, starting from the proposal onward, to improve its quality; a due date for the completion of the backlog on each deliverable; and who is responsible for the completion of each backlog item. Select at least two of the items in your backlog list for completion in Phase 3 ; then, complete and submit them in Phase 3. 5. Create a well-structured Project Phase 3 report, clearly explaining all your work. Your report should be divided into 4 sections, with clear headings corresponding to the four deliverables above. Please include a short meaningful summary at the top of your report. Submit your Phase 2 report on Canvas on Tuesday, 1 March 2022 (03/01/22). Please sign up to meet with the instructor on Wednesday, 3/2/22 or TA on Friday, 3/4/22 here.
