The Problem to Be Solved

The biggest challenge faced by supermarket giant Coles is it supply chain issues that impact the organisation productivity and financial stability. In order to eradicate this issue the organisation can use different technology that can add the organisation to eradicate these issues.

Problem Insight

Presently the organisation has expressed concern facing supply issues and demand challenges. The organisation is facing supply and demand challenges that influence the organisation overall productivity and financial stability. Due to covid-19 the organisation faces issue in delivering and supplying the products (Grimmer, 2019). The supply of products from country likes China and organisation performance because most of the products services and refrigerators and other equipment’s get delayed from China that have been packed the supply chain transformation.

Porter's Five Forces

Porter Five Analyses

Porter five analyses the best tool that aids the organisation to determine the competitive landscape of an industry. These five forces are comprises of threat of new entrants, practices to substitute products or services, Power of buyers, bargaining power of suppliers and rivalry among existing firms.

Threat of New Entrants

Coles is one of the biggest Supermarket chain in Australia and the key advantage of economies of scale has been in the industry is fighting of new entries to its cost advantage. The price of the organisation products is highly affordable that the customer chooses Coles apart other organisation. It makes production costlier for the new entries. The product differentiation of the organisation is highly strong with industry as organisation deliver best quality of products which retain their customers (Xu et al., 2020). The product of the organisation is highly standardized and requires stick licensing and legal requirements that any other organisation cannot make it up. The organisation focus on innovation in its product and that is the key that for the new entries.

Bargaining power of suppliers

The bargaining power of suppliers in industry is quality higher than buyers for Coles operator. It refers that supplier have these control over the prices and this makes the bargaining power of suppliers a weak force. The organisation purchase raw material from its supplier at low cost as the organisation have different supplier as for the location in which the storage located which is a benefit for organisation. The organisation has good relationship with suppliers that highly impact the organisation productivity.

Threat of substitute products

Due to globalisation large variety of products are available in the market and there are many different start-ups have emerged which highly impact the organisation. These new associations create different products and services that can retain large number of customers and that this will be a great third for the organisation product and services (Masum et al., 2019). The organisation can combat this challenge by delivering services and adopting Different techniques and approaches in its services. The organisation needs to gain customer attention by adopting different strategies and programs that can retain its customer. The organisation needs to build its product in such a way that it seems to have a unique feature that no other organisation can have. Organic product is now the preference of many customers that organisation needs to span is product majorly in organic material.

Rivalry among existing firms

Large number of companies is competitors of the organisation such as Wal-Mart. There are different organisations that can be a great had for the firm the four different approaches in all departments of the organisation need to be adopted. The existing issues need to be eradicated in the organisation that impacts the overall productivity. Organisation needs to focus on new customer rather than winning the ones from the other companies.

Value Chain Analysis

Value chain analysis is referred as the activities that it had the organisation to analyse the competitive force of the industry. It is one of the most effective tool that help the organisation to identify the gaps in the existing operation and undertaken best steps to eradicate this.

Primary Activities

The primary activities of the organisation are directly involved in innovating as well as selling the product to the target customers.

Operations

 Organisation is delivering a wide range of products in fact mostly all range of products are present in the stores. Organisation is also focusing on providing organic product to the customer which is now in organization.

Outbound Logistic

The organisation can optimise as well as analyse the outbound Logistic in order to explore competitive advantage and accomplish the business objective (Grimmer, 2019).

SWOT Analysis

• The financial stability of the organisation is not done properly and efficiently organisation needs to update organisation needs to upgrade its asset ratio can give more competitive edge.

Opportunity

• Adaptation of new technology will give competitive edge to the firm and also increase productivity.
• As your organisation always focus on innovative products that phone creating new products that satisfy the needs of customer will be the biggest opportunity for the organisation.
• The organisation is focusing on delivering organic products to the customer as it is the biggest opportunity for the organisation to retain its customer (Van Kampen & Kirkham, 2020).
• Organisation is opening up new market because of government agreement which give an opportunity to enter into emerging markets.

Threat

• Increasing competition is the biggest threat for the organisation
• New technologies developed by the competitors may impact the organisation present strategies and operations.
• Inefficient supply chain management can strongly impact the organisation productivity and growth.
• Rising raw material can pose a threat to the organisation profitability.

Solution Selection

Coles supermarket is facing supply chain issue that highly impact the organisational productivity and performance as there is need to enhance the supply chain management by adopting new technology present in the market. As per the value chain analysis and SWOT analysis it has been identified that the organisation needs to improve its supply chain in order to accomplish the organisation goals and eradicate the challenges that organisation is facing (Mortimer & Grimmer, 2018). Big data analytics help the organisation to get enhancement in Customer services and demand fulfilment by minute to minute analysis of operations in the organisation.

Novel Value Proposition

One of the biggest advantages of big data is that it helps organisation identifies the gaps in supply chains which comprises of delayed in services and inadequate supply of raw materials etc. Big data helps the organisation to assess the use data and take appropriate steps decision making process.

Target Customers

Target audience of the organisation is the Australian wealthiest citizen. The organisation target high class people as well as middle class people as target customers. Organisation manufactures wide products in order to deliver by services to the customers.

Competitive Advantage

After implementing the big data in the organisation then the organisation will be able to eradicate the supply chain issue and make better decision for the organisation (Grimmer, 2019). Delivering best quality of products within minimum time help the organisation to capture a larger audience and it gives a competitive edge to the organisation.

Strategic Fit

Coles is one of the most recognised supermarket chains that grabs customer. The organisation needs to meet the demand of the customer within minimum time range. The organisation needs to strong its supply chain which will be done by having big data and its operation system.

Assumption and Uncertainty

Big data is one of the best approaches but it is not certain that it will entirely change the supply chain management of the organisation (Olstad et al., 2016). As the organisation is one of the biggest Supermarket chain that there are various ups and downs in supply chain management so big data cannot perform hundred present to eradicate the challenges.

Argumentation for Deflection of Innovative Tool

Innovation is one of the major key factors that help the organisation to accomplish its desired goals. The innovation of any organisation will directly impact is productivity and customer engagement (Haskins et al., 2020). If the organisation is focusing in enhancing supply chain management and adopting big data then various changes will be seen in the supply chain management.

Critical Reflection on Novel Value Preposition

From this study I have learnt that there are various tools and technology that can be added in organisation operation which will directly impact is productivity and performance. I am not so knowledgeable in terms of implementing correct technology for the Coles but big data can prove to be a better option for the organisation in order to analyse and improve its supply chain management. The overall experience was amazing and it helps me to generate innovative ideas that can help organisation to eradicate its challenges.

Conclusion on Novel Value Preposition

It is concluded from the study that logistic has remain the challenge for the organisation for a very long time however this pandemic hardly impact the organisation. The availability of product could not meet the customer demands as due to supply chain issues. The organisation needs to adopted different strategies such as big data.
