Australia is popular for having favorable environment that supports business activities. However, a company must comply with the country’s import and export regulations. For successful importation, a company must comply with the government regulations including duty taxes as well as clearance by the country’s Department of Home Affairs. A business must also obtain licensing and import permits. For export activities, a business must have an export declaration form and a prohibited and restricted exports form from the Australian Border Force (Australian Government, 2018).

The country also has an effective transport network comprising of more than 874,000 kilometers of road, at least 33,000 kilometers of heavy rail and 291 kilometers of light rail. Australia has 40 airports, including 10 international airports. Also it has 37 ports with annual throughput of at least 1 billion dollars (DIRD, 2016). However, the recent political upheaval that led to the election of Scott Morrison and brewing turmoil in the ruling coalition may be bad for business. Scott (2018) indicates that Barnaby Joyce planned to challenge for top position in the government.

Apart from the business environment, it is important to consider the logistics and supply chain management factors associated with setting up a subsidiary in Australia. Some of the hot issues worth taking into consideration are inventory and transport management, sourcing and marketing in the supply chain, green logistics and supply chain, as well as warehousing. Based on information search, Safeways should set up a subsidiary in Sydney. This is due to the fact that it the country’s only global city. City of Sydney (2016) indicates that apart from being the leading knowledge based economy in the country, the City of Sydney generates at least $108 billion each year.

This accounts for more than 7% of the country’s economy. It also provides more than 430,000 jobs across different skills levels that offer opportunities for different people.

Retrieved from. Requirements You will develop a high-level Supply Chain Management Plan for a fictional company in a country of your choice (not the United States). As a member of an appointed team in your company, you will explore the possibility of setting up a new supply chain. You are to explore the feasibility of a supply chain by executing the following: · Select a business. · Select a foreign country. · Conduct a general business/logistics assessment of your country to determine imports, exports, transportation options, workforce, government stability, etc. · Identify major logistics and supply chain management issues associated with setting up a wholly owned subsidiary in your country. · Provide your recommendation as to what is the best city to establish a manufacturing and supply chain operation to meet the long-term goals of the company. · Prepare a high-level logistics and supply chain management plan to support the location you recommended. (See Supply Chain Management Guidelines below) To complete this assignment, you will need to balance external research with your creative solutions.

All information to write this plan will not be available online or in articles, so you will need to make educated guesses on how you would set up warehouses or structure exports in your selected city/country. Excellent reports will use references from successful processes and then implement them into their supply chain plan showing that the country's infrastructure could support the process. Scenario You have been asked by the CEO to join a senior team that has been created to explore the possibility of setting up the firm’s new supply chain. The company has been exporting a limited number of products to several regions for several years, but as demand has increased, the CEO is considering the possibility of setting up some form supply chain to reduce manufacturing and distribution costs and get closer to the customer.

Even though the CEO has engaged in talks with several economic development groups in the region, he has not yet decided what would be the best supply chain design for the current market to support the company’s long-term business strategy. As a key member of the team, your job is to develop a high-level Supply Chain management plan to explore the feasibility of establishing a wholly owned subsidiary in Country X. As part of the process, he has asked you to: · Conduct a general business/logistics assessment of your country to determine imports, exports, transportation options, workforce, government stability, etc. · Identify major logistics and supply chain management issues associated with setting up a wholly owned subsidiary in Country X. · Provide your recommendation as to what is the best city to establish a manufacturing and supply chain operation to meet the long-term goals of the company. · Prepare a high-level logistics and supply chain management plan to support the location you recommended above.

You have 8 weeks to prepare a report that summarizes your findings. The CEO has told you not to worry about the budget at this point (that will be addressed at another time) and has directed that you follow the format listed on the next page. Report Format I.
