Improving supply chain performance of the Australian beef enterprises

The significant overall problem for performance of the Australian beef supply chain was unskilled and inexperienced staff or personnel. Based on the results of the research, the suggested solutions are to provide training, knowledge and skills development, to integrate training methods with innovation and technology diffusion, to select and hire higher skilled migrants (outsourcing), to expand the group training provisions across Australia, to have deeper and richer relationships between industry, vocational education and training and higher education sectors, and to have better targeted recruitment.
