DRC and Surrounding Countries Supply Chain Operation Management(SCOM)
Description
This is a project that will enable us to generate evidences to address issues which make barriers to support small businesses operating in agriculture and mining extraction. Multiple methodologies will be applied for the delivery process including; <br />
• Virtual learning; this method will enable beneficiaries to outreach more audience up to 1500 include those with incapacity to attend our program in a specific audiences. They will have the opportunity of a theoretical learning on the operation management(SCOM)<br />
• Conference; this method will be used to capture a high number up to 2500 of audiences to inform them on the operation process and the benefit that the program brings for the local area.<br />
• One to One assessment: the beneficiaries will be seeing by our expert to give his view on the on their performance and to evaluate their input in the operation process. This process will help us to identify the ability of the beneficiaries to provide a positive contribution in the operation process. <br />
• Seminaries: this method will be used to provide capacity development in the areas of legal, policies, networking and gender equality to the local authority personal involved in the SCOM to support the legal side of our program it is essential for the authority to be involved, mainly for the product cost stability. <br />
• Evaluation: this method will enable us to analyse the evidences from our beneficiaries and then to assess the outcomes and provide our recommendations to develop the delivery of the operation of SCOM.<br />
The population of the Great Lakes region of Africa is dominated by an agricultural activity which is a major input to the local economy. The population is under developed and under nourished. The access in employment is limited because of lack of innovation in the agricultural production (Source: ). The agricultural production is limited to provide family living than to be productive and economically viable. The farmers are poor and cannot afford to cover wages of farming employees. The methods of farming production are traditional don’t help the increasing of harvest to meet the economic needs of the farmers. The lack of strong agricultural policies weakness farmer production to contribute to their economy.<br />
This project is looking to implement methods applied to increase the productivity of the farmers which can make them sustainable in their business. We will provide capacity development to the farmer community in the new technology of production. Also we are planning to develop supply chain to enable the evacuation of the farmer products to the urban centre of consumption. The project will improve the business structure of food supply chain to allow the local authority taxes collection and to stabilise the local economy by increasing the window of the investment in the federal provincial region.<br />
Our organisation will guide the Great Lakes region authorities to make use of both explicit and implicit methods (Source: FAO-: Means of Agricultural Taxation: 2012) to appropriate on the collection of tax to the stake holder of the agricultural and mining supply chain.<br />
This organisation will use room training method to provide capacity development to the beneficiaries for their skill development process under our program. We will make sure that our beneficiaries understand their contribution for the local economy after the end of our program.<br />
We are delivering a program less complex to the understand of our stake holders and our beneficiaries. We will start to provide capacity building with the collaboration of the local authority in the area planned as follow:<br />
1. Network Development of Farmer <br />
2. Collection Sites of the products teams <br />
3. Logistic capabilities and mapping<br />
4. Local distribution network<br />
5. Local processors network<br />
6. Local retailers network <br />
7. Exporters network<br />
8. Point of Collections <br />
These are our strategic modules, we will apply for the venues and logistics needs at the local partners include Public Authorities and Caritas Development locally in the field of those countries. Our Project manager will be formed Locally in UK. <br />
<br />
The project will be looking to deliver a short term training development to the local people to engage in the delivery of supply chain operation management in the following areas include;<br />
<br />
• Products Data Base<br />
• Products Stability Cost <br />
• Supply Chain Operation Planning<br />
• Operation Delivery<br />
• Operation Evaluation<br />
• Operation Monitoring<br />
• Project Outcomes<br />
• Reporting <br />
• Project Statistical Analysis<br />
• Recommendation <br />
Those areas are critical to develop their knowledge from the personal to articulate a sustainable business that can change the way to trade of the agricultural and mining products are operating in the DRC and the surrounding countries in the great lake region. The inclusive regional operating system of the Great Lake with all the countries around DRC can maximise their regional security and by increasing the investors access to the region which can maximise the regional economy and reduce the level of the poverty in those countries<br />
