12–15 PowerPoint slides with notes (150–200 words)

Put together a PowerPoint presentation with 12–15 slides that can be used for both internal purposes and when you meet with all of your vendors to kick off a vendor certification program. To earn full credit on the PowerPoint, you must use colored slides, clip art or charts, or photos on each slide to make them eye-appealing, along with 150–200 words of speaker notes for each slide, explaining the slide’s content. Slides must not be covered with commentary; that is what the speaker notes are for.

Assume the following information about a company:

• The company is currently assessing a make versus buy decision.
• The company currently makes product line “A” using proprietary technology. Its variable cost/unit is $10, and its fixed cost allocation of overhead based on producing 10,000/yr is $20/unit, for a total standard cost of $30/unit.
• The company also makes 3 other completely different and separate product lines on different equipment.
• The company has a quote from an outside vendor for this product A, for $18/unit.

Assignment:

• Given the data presented, what criteria would you use to evaluate the make versus buy decision that faces you?
• As a company’s managers create the optimum supply chain, there are many criteria that must be weighed, and in some cases, trade-offs are made. List at least 5 trade-off type decisions that the firm’s managers would have to make to establish the optimum supply chain. Include why it is a trade-off and the added information that you would need to actually make the best choice.

The following is an example of a trade-off:

• Should the manufacturing plant be located closer to its raw material vendors or its customer base? Why?
• Make up a checklist that a company’s vendor certification team should fill out when it visits a vendor prior to certifying them. What are the pros and cons of installing a vendor certification program?

Discussion: Creating Supportive Relationships and Family Partnerships

“…early childhood programs need the active support of families to maximize program impact on children” (Powell, 2003).

As you have been learning, understanding and valuing relationships with parents and other significant adults in children’s lives within the context of early childhood education is essential to children’s healthy development and learning. At the core of these relationships is the early childhood practitioner and his or her ability to cultivate such relationships with children and families, as well as strengthen relationships between children and families, both of which can create a substantive and lasting impact. Consider the research presented in your Learning Resources highlighting the significance of cultivating relationships with children and families and building family partnerships. In addition, review the media segment “Building Relationships and Partnering with Families.”

After you have reflected on this information:

By Wednesday of Week 2:

Post:

• A research-based rationale* as to why relationships and family partnerships are essential to effective programs and practices within the early childhood field
• Why understanding your own biases is critical to developing effective partnerships
• Factors you need to explore further to be completely open to forming effective partnerships with every family.

  *Note: A research-based rationale responds to a central question or questions, based on current resources provided in and outside the course. To complete your rationale for this Discussion, use at least two current articles or other sources (published within the last five years). Cite each source within the body of your response. Your rationale should be approximately one page in length. For information on how to cite sources correctly, consult your Pocket Guide to APA Style or visit the Walden Writing Center at http://writingcenter.waldenu.edu/APA.htm

Draft the risk analysis portion of your final project including Risk Identification, Quantification and Risk Response development. Identify a minimum of three potential risks.
