...Week 3 Assignment John Smith INF 336 Professor Smith July 14, 2014 Week 3 Assignment The differences between needs identification and defining commercial equivalents are that needs identification is initial phase of a program/project when the customer comes to an organization with a need and the types of needs are identified for the project and analyzed. Once the needs are identified, these needs are then converted into commercial equivalents. That helps the potential suppliers know why it is needed and what is needed. It is preferable to separate into two stages because every organization really needs to identify why and what is needed. Nothing can be failed to spot during any of these actions. When an early supplier involvement (ESI) is implemented effectively, the value to the organization is improved tremendously. As stated in the textbook, “Early supply involvement and early supplier involvement (ESI) help assure that what is specified is also procurable and represents good value. Various organizational approaches, such as staffing the supply area with engineers, co-locating supply people in the engineering or design areas, and using cross-functional teams on new product development or product or service reviews, have been used to address effective early supply involvement.” (Johnson, Leenders, & Flynn, 2010) One of the advantages of specifying by performance is that it has the supplier with the decision making on how to “provide the most suitable product...

Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.1 or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation (see Appendix F for details). i Preface The previous edition of this manual was about using the software package called gretl to do various econometric tasks required in a typical two course undergraduate or masters level econometrics sequence. This version tries to do the same, but several enhancements have been made that will interest those teaching more advanced courses. I have come to appreciate the power and usefulness of gretl’s powerful scripting language, now called hansl. Hansl is powerful enough to do some serious computing, but simple enough for novices to learn. In this version of the book, you will find more information about writing functions and using loops to obtain basic results. The programs have been generalized in many instances so that they could be adapted for other uses if desired. As I learn more about hansl specifically...
