Supply Chain Network Design Considerations

From our Bowersox Chapter 11 on Network Design, Table 11.17 identifies Supply Chain
Network Design Considerations as they have evolved from 1990 to 2010 to 2020. The
author states that "it is clear that all considerations are not weighted equally, nor will
they have equal impact."
This provides an opportunity to define and rank - according to your learning and
individual assessment - those considerations that have emerged from 2010 to 2020.
These are: Water, Regulatory, Compliance, Supplier Relationships, Commodity
Availability, and Cross-Sale Requirements.
Therefore for your paper please provide: 1) Definition of the six considerations listed
above; 2) Rank these considerations by importance / impact and explain - personally
and academically - why you have chosen the ranking.
