Bachelor of Commerece (Honours) with Operations Management Concentration
ObjectivesWhat happens when your local store sells out of that great new video game before you’ve had a chance to buy it? You’re unhappy, the store has lost a sale, and you may never shop there again. And that, in a nutshell, is operations management. If you have too much or too little product you’re either tying up money in excess inventory, or losing sales. And neither option is very attractive. Successful operations management ensures the smooth flow of material and processes to produce and distribute products and services with the highest quality at the right time, in the right quantity, to the right place, and the right customer. Operations management encompasses purchasing, product design, manufacturing, inventory control, service delivery, quality improvement, logistics and supply chain management, and facility location and layout. Students who successfully complete Sprott’s Bachelor of Commerce with a concentration in operations management will have learned the critical skills and capabilities required to design, develop, build and deliver the highest quality goods and services in the most economical way.
