Project Preassessment Evaluation

Project Preassessment Evaluation

Based on an evaluation of the organization’s current state and recent initiatives, the areas listed below have been identified as being in need of improvement based on the triple-bottom-line framework and B Corp Certification requirements.

Competencies

In this project, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following competencies:

• Recommend operations management methods and techniques to increase value for customers
• Evaluate how operations management generates value for an organization
• Explain local, national, and global sustainability in relation to functional areas of business

You work as the chief supply-chain officer at the large international corporation, NationaliTeas. NationaliTeas manufactures and sells tea worldwide. Its motto is “Keeping people and their taste buds awake (when they want to be awake).” Its mission is “Make the world more awake through rejuvenating and refreshing beverages and sustainable practices that uplift workers, communities, and souls.” Its vision is “to be the most respected tea manufacturer across at least three continents for our tea and our actions, which will be driven by a commitment ethical sourcing, minimal waste, and empowerment of our employees.”

You would like to establish an operational goal of having your corporation apply for a B Corp Certification within the next two years. You believe this would add value to the organization and help it to prioritize a stronger focus on sustainable operational practices. You have conducted a preassesment based on the recommendations for applying for B Corp Certification, and you’ve evaluated the corporation’s current strengths and areas for improvement.

Now you need to develop a proposal for the board of directors that explains why prioritizing the triple bottom line (TBL) through working toward B Corp Certification has organizational value. You must also propose three high-impact initiatives to help strengthen the corporation’s commitment to people, planet, and profit based on your evaluations.
