Independent Journal of Management & Production Independent Journal of Management & Production (IJM&P) ANALYSIS OF INVENTORY MANAGEMENT IN A SMALL BUSINESS

Abstract The objective of this study was to analyze the production process and supply control in order to identify possible gaps and develop a method for managing supplies, which can be achieved. The relevance of this research on the benefits that the company can obtain by identifying the problems of supply control, allowing the development of solutions. The research method used was the case study, which was grounded on the tripod semi-structured interviews, on-site observation and document analysis, this methodology was very suitable because it can be analyzed and cross checking. During the semi-structured interview, the point of view of the respondent can be seen without any interference by the interviewer. The possibility of implementation of the proposal obtained from the theoretical framework that together with the complementary actions suggested here, in order to make it more productive and profitable. This work allowed them to observe the weaknesses in managing the supply chain and what the points to work should be. It allowed using some scientific models in the company object of study in order to improve supply management

The Detailed Science Case for the Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer, 2019 edition

(Abridged) The Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer (MSE) is an end-to-end science platform for the design, execution and scientific exploitation of spectroscopic surveys. It will unveil the composition and dynamics of the faint Universe and impact nearly every field of astrophysics across all spatial scales, from individual stars to the largest scale structures in the Universe. Major pillars in the science program for MSE include (i) the ultimate Gaia follow-up facility for understanding the chemistry and dynamics of the distant Milky Way, including the outer disk and faint stellar halo at high spectral resolution (ii) galaxy formation and evolution at cosmic noon, via the type of revolutionary surveys that have occurred in the nearby Universe, but now conducted at the peak of the star formation history of the Universe (iii) derivation of the mass of the neutrino and insights into inflationary physics through a cosmological redshift survey that probes a large volume of the Universe with a high galaxy density. MSE is positioned to become a critical hub in the emerging international network of front-line astronomical facilities, with scientific capabilities that naturally complement and extend the scientific power of Gaia, the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope, the Square Kilometer Array, Euclid, WFIRST, the 30m telescopes and many more
