PROJECT STATEMENT
The African Integrated High-Speed Railway Network (AIHSRN).
African nations are preparing to invest billions in a significant overhaul of their rail infrastructure as part of an ambitious plan
for the continent. One of the key projects underway is the African Integrated High-Speed Railway Network (AIHSRN), which
aims to connect Africa's capital cities and major commercial centres with a high-speed railway network to enhance
continental trade and competition. This network will span 2,000 km (1,243 miles) and connect 60 cities, including Nairobi,
Lagos, Cairo, and Dakar. It will improve access to essential markets, enhance economic cooperation, and encourage
regional collaboration. The plan is poised to revolutionise intra-African trade by reducing travel times and lowering
transportation costs, making trade between African nations more competitive. The trains will be capable of reaching speeds
of up…

- Can you guys help me with this? Thank you! Here's the question: Compared to the CONSTRAINT model, how has the network changed? How do you plan to add contingency to your network? Please answer this thoroughly Here's the what-if scenario: Assume that the LA warehouse becomes temporarily or even indefinitely disabled since facing a large-scale labor disruption. Re-optimize the network considering this new constraint. Here's the scenario comparison analysis: Scenario Constraint Scenario vs What-if Scenario Summary The Constraint Scenario exhibits a higher total cost of $7,424,575.45 compared to the What-if Scenario's total cost of $6,611,905.60, signifying a difference of approximately $812,669.85, which indicates a more expensive operation in the Constraint Scenario. The average service time is slightly higher in the Constraint Scenario (0.72 days vs. 0.70 days), suggesting that the What-if Scenario provides a marginally quicker service. Moreover, the average end-to-end service time…arrow_forwardCan you guys help me with this? Thank you! Here's the question: Compared to the CONSTRAINT model, how has the network changed? How do you plan to add contingency to your network? Please answer this throughly Here's the what-if scenario: Assume that Dallas plant has lost power. It cannot serve the DCs anymore and has to remain locked indefinitely. Re-optimize the network considering this new constraint. Here's the scenario comparison analysis: Scenario Constraint Scenario vs What-if Scenario Summary In comparing the Constraint Scenario to the What-if Scenario, a few key differences highlight the efficiencies evident in the supply chain. Firstly, the total cost in the Constraint Scenario is lower at $7,424,575.45, while the What-if Scenario incurs a total cost of $7,486,369.12, resulting in a cost delta of $61,793.67. Additionally, although both scenarios exhibit the same average service time of 0.72 days, the What-if Scenario has a more favorable average end-to-end service time of 2.41…arrow_forwardEmployee In-Service Training ASSIGNMENT: In-Service Training. The intern is required to plan and implement two in-service training sessions for employees. Each in-service should last at least 10 but not more than 30 minutes and should be given to all employees affected. The preceptor or supervisor/unit manager must approve all in-service topics. 1) One presentation should be related to a policy or procedure of any kind (e.g. proper use of equipment); 2) The second presentation must be related to sanitation or safety. For each in-service presentation, the intern must develop a written class plan and a visual aid (may be a handout, poster, PowerPoint slide presentation, etc.) appropriate to the life experiences, cultural diversity and educational background of the target audience. The intern must also measure behavior change. Note, this cannot be measured by a written pre- and post- test. That would be measuring knowledge. The intern mustactually observe and document that the learners…arrow_forward
- A small furniture manufacturer produces tables and chairs. Each product must go through three stages of the manufacturing process – assembly, finishing, and inspection. Each table requires 3 hours of assembly, 2 hours of finishing, and 1 hour of inspection. The profit per table is $120 while the profit per chair is $80. Currently, each week there are 200 hours of assembly time available, 180 hours of finishing time, and 40 hours of inspection time. Linear programming is to be used to develop a production schedule. Define the variables as follows: T = number of tables produced each week C= number of chairs produced each week According to the above information, what would the objective function be? (a) Maximize T+C (b) Maximize 120T + 80C (c) Maximize 200T+200C (d) Minimize 6T+5C (e) none of the above According to the information provided in Question 17, which of the following would be a necessary constraint in the problem? (a) T+C ≤ 40 (b) T+C ≤ 200 (c) T+C ≤ 180 (d) 120T+80C ≥ 1000…arrow_forwardAs much detail as possible.

Ask preceptor about regulations that could prescribe a certain amount of food that must be kept on hand for emergencies, etc. Is the facility accredited by any agency such as Joint Commission? 2. Describe the kind of menu the facility uses (may include standard select menu, menu specific to station, non-select, select, room service, etc.) 3. What type of foodservice does the facility have? This could be various stations to choose from, self-serve, 4. conventional, cook-chill, assembly-serve, etc. Are there things about the facility or system that place a constraint on the menu to be served?
