Assignment Requirements:

• Review Chapter 1 and the videos above describe Porter’s Five  Competitive Forces model. Use the search term “information sharing in a  supply chain” to find 2  peer-reviewed articles from academic journals or an authoritative source  (includes and author knowledgeable on the subject and publish date or  article) about the use of information in supply chains or value chains.
• Write a summary of each article and explain how the use of  information in each article relates to Porter’s Five Competitive Forces  model.
• Discuss how information can be used strategically, based on the example(s) in the articles.
• Your paper should be in APA  v7 format and 3-4 pages, not counting the title page and reference pages.
• Make sure you have in-text citations and a reference page. Since  articles are to be peer-reviewed from academic journals they should  include and author and have a date published. Use the WilmU library to  search for articles. 
• Direct quotes of information should be used minimally in papers this  short. Direct quotes should support the point of view being made in the  paper and should be thoughtful. Papers with large amounts of copied  information or quotes will lose significant points. Read the articles  and write summaries in your own words.
