Learning Objective
The case can be used in analytics, supply chain management, and non-profit management courses and modules at the undergraduate and graduate levels. This case study looks into equitable distribution, a complex and necessary part of many non-profit and humanitarian supply chains. After working through the case and assignment questions, students will be able to: ·discuss the meaning of equitable distribution in a non-profit setting; ·develop strategies that enable non-profit organizations (food banks) to measure equitable distribution; ·understand the data collecting and processing requirements that allow non-profit organizations to manage operations and systems efficiently; ·develop appropriate key performance indicators for managing a non-profit supply chain; and ·understand the use of descriptive and prescriptive analytics on non-profit data.
