1.  supply chain should always be giving the opportunity to maximize itself. An initial design of a supply chain certainly should not be the end of the management ideas. I believe that a supply can be completed redesigned to compensate for poor product design or poor quality. Introducing more suppliers and manufactures into the supply chain can boost the quality of the product being designed. Also if the supply chain is shortened and the manufacturers are given the opportunity to have more lead time to work on their products, this could provide relief to product design. Also, a flexible supply chain could provide more manufacturing product options. Ultimately, poor products are brought through the supply chain mostly because there is an abundance of them and that they are cheap. The combined effect of these products on the market are not thought to be significant enough to drive a complete supply chain redesign. However, implementing simple measures like inspections on the supply chain would combat against poor product design. Even if it extends your supply chain, if it slows down your reverse supply chain while at the same time providing a better product to the end user it will be deemed a superior options. Speaking of reverse logistics, that part of your supply chain can also be used to help product design. Lessons learned from the reverse supply chain can be implemented going forward so that products improves.

2. Quality supply chain management has a seemingly countless number of advantages afforded to companies, given the supply chain is run effectively. One of these advantages is the possibility of the a supply chain actually improving or having a positive impact on products that are poorly designed. In other words, a quality supply chain has the ability to address and overcome failures in manufacturing. Several examples exists of this occurance. One of the first the comes to mind is the ability for supply chain manages to address the fragility of a product by deliberately packaging and storing to avoid further damage. Products that are at least partial glass, or that may have a structural weak point will benefit when supply chain managers work to make these improvements.
Less obviously, supply chains can actually identify problems that exists within the products themselves and allow companies to make improvements. For example, products susceptible to cold temperatures may be identified while in transit by transportation employees. Furthermore, managers of supply chains may have the authority to directly address weakness by suggesting higher quality raw material suppliers. Regardless, it should be the goal of all supply chain managers not to just move goods from manufacturing to customer, but provide added value to the product and company as a whole. This achieved when managers and employees have honest and regular conversations about product loss due to damage during transit. However, these conversations are only likely to happen if an emphasis is placed by leadership on the opinion of employees
