Prompt: In this milestone, consider the sustainability of your idea in the marketplace from initial inventory to subsequent sustainment in the supply chain. Specifically, examine the company’s own inventory as a starting point—that inventory came from a supplier—which is where your supply chain starts. Additionally, your finished product will travel downstream along the supply chain by means of shippers, distribution centers and then finally, to a retailer. These components should be outlined in this paper.
Identify and describe the technologies you intend to use along the company’s supply chain such as RFID tagging and bar coding, e-procurement, and 3PL.

The paper should identify the key data needed to support the functions of inventory management and supply chain management.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
III. Life Cycle: In this section, you will discuss the life cycle of S.H.E. Specifically, you should:
a) Describe the life cycle of S.H.E. Focus your response on the future of the business idea, specifically on its growth and eventual decline.
b) Assess the profit generation and cost-saving opportunities associated with S.H.E. based on the life cycle you described. Your assessment should be supported with rationale.
c) Determine a phase-out plan for S.H.E. that ensures a sustainable solution that makes way for future innovation and profit streams. Ensure that you justify the steps in your plan.
