Solutions Design and Visualization Capstone

Solution Design and Visualization Capstone guides learners to synthesize and apply the skills learned throughout their business analytics, operations, and supply chain education. This course gives learners the opportunity to solve challenges in procurement, sales and operations planning (S&OP) processes, distribution, logistics and transportation faced by a fictional company. In the course capstone project, learners play the role of an operations and supply chain manager or consultant, redesigning the existing supply chain to implement lean processes and using Six Sigma methodology to improve efficiency and allow the company to bring new products or services to market faster. Learners in this course address a real operations and supply chain problem and design solutions, which they communicate in a report and a presentation. At the end of the course, learners will have an authentic experience they can add to their portfolio and show employers. Working through this capstone helps learners to understand how their knowledge interacts with real situations and how roles fit within the industry. The D472: 21st Century Operations and Supply Chain course is a prerequisite.
