Abstract

The project described in this case is the result of a political leader in a small, yet significantly petroleum rich African country, seeking to improve economic conditions and agricultural infrastructure for people in his country, Equatorial Guinea. The leader has hired a project director from Texas. As the project builds in momentum, an additional director steps in to assure that the cattle in the transaction meet required health standards and currency is exchanged based on appropriate United States currency value. A small country and a large order of cattle create the setting that enables students to be able to apply knowledge of supply chain management on an international basis, develop an understanding of international trade and think beyond the immediate transaction and into customer relationship management (CRM).
