QSO 328 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric
\nOverview
\nThe Final Project for this course is the creation of an Environmental and Social Sustainability Plan.
\nSustainability has moved beyond being a buzzword to become an integral consideration for planning and executing business processes. The term sustainability embodies not only environmental considerations, but also social and financial aspects. Combined, these three aspects comprise the \u201ctriple bottom line.\u201d Arguably, the operations function is the best focus area for an organization to enhance the triple bottom line. Operations is the function that transforms inputs (such as raw materials and supplies) into outputs (such as finished goods ready to ship to consumers, or other products that are used as inputs for downstream customers). Properly managing and leading the workforce and using lean tools are just some of the means by which major sustainability improvements can be made in operations.
\nFor your final assessment, you will benchmark sustainability practices from a company of your choice to develop an environmental and social sustainability plan for a fictional company. It is important that you incorporate both the knowledge you gained from this course and research on a company that currently uses the triple bottom line strategy to achieve sustainability goals.
\nThe project is divided into four milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules One, Two, Four, and Five.
\nIn this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:

\nPrompt
\nYou are the director of operations at XYZ Manufacturing Company. Your boss, who is the VP for Operations, came to your office to vent. She just got out of a
\nmeeting where senior executives were pressuring her for increased output and better financial performance in the company\u2019s operations. However, she is concerned that the company has been focused too much on short-term financial performance, and not on the long-term sustainability of the company. She worries that employees are not satisfied, and the company is currently experiencing a \u201cbrain drain,\u201d where many top performers are actively searching for employment elsewhere. Unfortunately, some employees have already left, and they are helping to convince others to leave too. She also is concerned about constant threats from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), which has recently questioned whether or not some of the firm\u2019s processes are polluting local<\/p>\n
