goods and services in a sustainable and environmentally sound manner for customers.

modern organisation from the perspective of a front-end business or customer focused
strategy. The subject examines the vital role of operations in providing capability
to implement an organisation's strategy through: identifying the strategic and competitive
nature of OM; building the key operational foundations for success - profit, strategy,
value and process; developing the key components of value - capabilities, cost, quality,
timeliness; managing the resources that create value - forecasting, inventory, logistics,
capacity, and facilities and understanding the frameworks of integrative management
- SCM, lean systems, constraint management.
