Garvely’s Comment to respond to:

The SupplyChainBrain article on Boeings plan to increase 737 production highlights how quality management issues directly affect operations and supply chain decisions. Although demand for the 737 remains strong, Boeings ability to raise output is constrained by ongoing quality and regulatory concerns, demonstrating the close relationship between quality management and operational effectiveness.

A key quality management issue at play is process compliance under heightened FAA oversight. Due to prior manufacturing lapses, Boeing must now demonstrate consistent adherence to standardized production and inspection processes before production rates can increase. This reflects a shift from output-driven decision making toward a quality-first operating approach, consistent with total quality management principles discussed in the course.

Historically, Boeing experienced serious quality failures related to manufacturing execution, documentation, and supplier oversight. Assembly defects and inconsistent process controls exposed weaknesses in Boeings quality system and supplier integration. These earlier issues continue to affect the current rollout of the 737 by limiting production rates, increasing inspection requirements, and reducing operational flexibility. From an operations perspective, these failures illustrate how poor quality management increases costs, delays output, and erodes regulatory and customer trust.

To move forward, Boeing should strengthen process-based quality systems by embedding quality checks directly into production rather than relying on final inspections. Improved supplier quality integration is also critical, including clearer performance metrics and closer collaboration across the supply chain. Additionally, leadership should reinforce a strong quality culture by empowering employees to report issues and aligning incentives with quality outcomes instead of production speed.

Overall, Boeings situation demonstrates that sustainable capacity expansion depends on stable, well-controlled quality systems. Treating quality as a strategic priority rather than a constraint is essential for long-term operational success.

I am working on a marketing plan for my bicycle company and I have to answer the following question for a marketing plan to the board of directors of the parent company.

responsibility to the parent company’s board of directors.

I am studying Human Resources and I would like to write my Masters thesis on a traineeship programme in which I participated at my current employer, HetRecruitingKantoor, a company operating in the recruitment sector.

It is a one-year programme addressed to individuals with diverse professional backgrounds (e.g., communication, HR, recruitment, sales, account management) and its aim is to train them for roles as recruiters and talent sourcers.

The programme includes both soft skills and hard skills, such as:

• Boolean search building
• LinkedIn and social sourcing
• Labour market analysis
• The use of different AI tools in recruitment

The training component also involved various professionals from the field, who provided specialised knowledge and practical guidance.

In parallel with the training, participants worked normally on client projects, directly applying in practice the knowledge they were acquiring.

I have access to materials such as presentations and intake forms, which reflect the working method and approach used for each client and can be utilised within the scope of the research.

All group members are to prepare their section of the video, and each person in the group needs to discuss their BIG challenge/s in the video and ensure it relates to your hotel ONLY. Your face must appear on the slides you are talking about. Each student’s name, number and challenge/s must appear on the first slide. The time limit for the total video is 10 minutes (+-10%). Videos outside these parameters by more than 15 seconds will be penalised by 10% (2 marks) per minute. This penalty will be the same for each group member. Your video must run automatically from start to finish. The quality of the video is vital. Examples of good and bad videos will be discussed in class. The quality is assessed in the rubric, and the same mark for this section will be given to each group member, so ensure you watch and check each person’s section. All sections of the video must be based on in-depth research. No academic journal articles are to be part of this project. Definitions are not required. Every slide in your presentation is required to contain intext citations. If these are missing, you may be reported to the Academic Integrity Unit. BIG challenges will be discussed in class both in the RMIT University visiting lecturer’s classes and the local lecturers’ classes. Please ensure you follow the brief. Steps to create the Video – these are discussed in class and when you return to your local lecturer’s classes Assessment Criteria The use of academic journal articles or definitions in this course are not allowed. This assessment will measure the following areas. (refer to rubric below) The 5 star hotel you group researched in Assessment 1 is the same for Assessment 2. The video discussion must be based on in-depth research, not merely a description. As such, it requires citations on each slides and a Reference List on the last slide/s. This reference list is not discussed. The video finishes with these reference list slide/s. All Videos must cover these sections: Describe the top 5 BIG challenges that this 5-star hotel is currently facing in 2026. Ensure your video is high quality and appropriate for your recommendations. Level of preparation and effort: Clarity of speech and ability to keep to time, engagement of your materials, use of multimedia and visuals The final slide/s are the Reference List. This is not discussed in the Video Please remember that the submission times on this canvas site are in the Melbourne timezone. For Assignments 1 and 2, Melbourne is 3 hours in front of Singapore, so this reads as 2.59 am on the next day. Your due date and time will be the previous day at 11.59 pm.
