Internal processes

The organization was pioneered by Steve Ells that initiated the idea of popularizing the Taquerias in the San Francisco. The first store was opened in Colorado, Denver in 1993. Immediately after opening the organization after one month the restaurant was already selling a thousand Burritos per day. The corporation is based on mission statement “food with integrity”. In 2011, the venture was recognized as the best fast-food chain in Mexico according to consumer report.

Chipotle original supply chain

Producers

Processing

Consumers

The original supply chain is the most convectional supply chain used mostly by new venture that don’t have a significant customer base. Therefore, to reduce the cost of operation they source their raw materials from the supplier and then sell directly to the client. They don’t engage the middlemen as this would increase the unnecessary cost of operation.

New way of supply chain management to the restaurants

Purchasing-food, packaging

Commodity Risk management

Equipment sales

Distribution

Members Program

The modern way of supply chain management encompasses the some other modification that deviates from the convection way that was originally used by Chipotle. Since, the business has grown tremendously, it has to include the distribution channel which can be outsourced or use the organization supply chain subsidiary. Under the current technological error, the supply chain uses the systematic mode of operation which is susceptible to various risks (Sadler & Craig, 2003). Therefore, within the supply chain commodity risk management is necessary to mitigate the system risk associated with the modern times complex supply chain. Moreover, to the consumer the corporation can adopt members program where the frequent and executive members are accorded special privileges under the plan.

In this case we deal with McDonald in India which among the best organization for supply of the first foods. However, we shall dwell primarily on the supply chain of its potato products in India. This supply chain involves sourcing of the potato product from the farmers and the corporation has spent over six years to establish a functional supply chain system in India (Shar, 2009). After sourcing the raw material from the farmers they are transferred to Radhakrisha Foodland that is the organization distribution center. The corporation specializes in services such as data collection, reporting and recording, inventory management, quality inspection, and production. The main distributor then partners with other mini-distributors that take the products to the customers.

Recommendation on ways of improving the supply chain

Proper alignment of supply chain staff in the organization

Organization of a supply chain is often a daunting task which helps in maximization of effectiveness to commensurate the corporation benefits (Chan & Lee, 2005). Therefore, the supply chain management should be undertaken by professionals from different business units. The professionals will be involved with the task of placing logistics, forecasting and demand, and contract management.

Utilization of technology

The corporation should select the best software to manage the supply chain that is efficient and structured in a process and workflow (Jansen, Spink, & Taksai, 2009). . Then after system development, the corporation should ensure the system is handled by professionally trained managers

Enhanced suppliers net works

The organization should ensure they have a strong supplier networks from all corners of the potential sources of their raw materials (Sadler & Craig, 2003). Since, the organization deals with first foods, which means that there raw material products are seasonal hence the need to have variety of seasoned suppliers.

Conclusion

In conclusion, organization was pioneered by Steve Ells that initiated the idea of popularizing the Taquerias in the San Francisco. The first store was opened in Colorado, Denver in 1993. The original supply chain is the most convectional supply chain used mostly by new venture that don’t have a significant customer base.
