The Xbox Story

 Just bought an Xbox or about to buy one?  Have you ever wondered who is involved and how the Xbox gets to you?  Quite simply it moves through what is called a “supply chain” The Xbox Supply Chain

They are all part of Transport and Logistics Industry They are all part of Transport and Logistics Industry There are lots of interesting jobs in the supply chain Sea Services to Freight RailAir They are all part of Transport and Logistics industry ! Road

A lot of different things have to be done:  By a lot of different people  Doing different jobs  With all the different parts of the Xbox being made and put together and checked to make sure nothing has been left out  And the Xbox has to be packed - so it doesn’t get broken when it is moved by trucks, trains, ships or aeroplanes What happens to get the Xbox to you?

Moving Your Xbox

 The ‘supply chain’ is the name we use for all the things that get done by lots of people make the Xbox and  Get it to the shops and to you.  So all you have to do when you get the Xbox home is to unpack it, plug it in and play games to the ‘Max” What is a supply chain?

How do metal and plastic become an Xbox? ?

What Does the Xbox Supply Chain Look Like

 Step 1: Raw Materials: Getting raw materials processed and turning them into something that can be used by factories to make into parts for the Xbox  Step 2: Making the parts in factories needed to go into an Xbox  Step 3: At the Xbox factory putting the parts together to make the Xbox The Key Xbox Supply Chain Steps

 Step 4: Packing, labelling and sending the Xbox to Australia  Step 5: Receiving, storing, sorting and sending the Xbox to shops or your home  All of the 5 steps involve transport to move the raw materials to the factories and from there to Australia and to the shop or your home The Key Xbox Supply Chain Steps

 Raw materials are natural resources such as oil, iron ore, wood.  We get the raw materials and make them into things that we can send to factories where they are made into parts or finished goods that we can use straight away.  For example a raw material like iron ore is mined and made or processed into steel wire.  The wire then gets sent to a factory where it can be made into screws that are needed to make the Xbox What are Raw Materials and how are they processed and used? Step 1

 Who knows the name of a product that is made into something from a raw material but needs more done to it before it becomes a part for an Xbox?  What about copper coils, gold bars, or logs?  These have to be moved to the parts factories What Raw Materials are Made Into

Gold plated contacts and connectors are an essential part of modern electronics in everything from computers to television (Credit: World Gold Council) Using Gold – Raw Material to Xbox Parts

 The Xbox needs lots of different parts and these are made in a lot of different factories  Processed raw materials are used to make the parts  About 250 factories (suppliers) make the parts needed to make the Xbox  The Xbox 360 contains around 1,700 different parts  Once the parts are made they need to be moved to the Xbox factory Making The X Box Parts Step 2

 After the parts are made they need to be packed and labelled and made ready for pick up by a truck  The truck picks up the parts and takes it to the Xbox factory  Where the factory is a long way away other types of transport might also be used: like ships, trains or planes Moving the Parts to the Xbox Factory

 Parts needed to make the Xbox are delivered to the factory by truck, unloaded, checked and kept in a place ready for use  As the parts are needed they are moved to the place where the Xbox is put together – usually called the ‘assembly line’ At the Xbox Factory Step 3

 As the Xbox comes off the assembly line it is labelled, checked and then packed into its box  The boxes are put on a pallet that is moved by forklift to the warehouse and stored in a pallet rack At the Xbox Factory

 The Xbox is kept in the warehouse until it is ready to be picked up and sent to Australia  Each Xbox has to be barcoded, labelled and the address of where it is going to put on the Xbox Sending The Xbox to Australia Step 4

 The Xbox is packed into a shipping container at the factory and sent to the container terminal by road and/or rail in time to be loaded on to the plane or ship  The Xbox warehouse tells the transport company o when it needs to pick up the Xbox o where it needs to go to o when it has to arrive Getting the Xbox to Australia

From Factory To Ship

 As the Xbox comes by ship from China it has a long way to travel to Australia  Before it can leave the port or airport in Australia the Xbox has to be checked by Customs and Health (Quarantine) to make sure it is what it says it is and nothing bad is hidden in it and it isn’t bringing in anything that might hurt people, animals and plants What Happens When it arrives in Australia? Step 5

 When it is unloaded from the ship in Australia it goes by truck to a warehouse before being sent on to the shop or your home. This warehouse is often called a distribution centre What Happens When it arrives in Australia?

 When you go into a shop to buy an Xbox it is usually there so that you can pay for it and take it straight home  As it can take sometime for an Xbox to get from China to Australia the company that makes the Xbox sends enough of them so that stores don’t run out of them  These Xboxes are kept in a warehouse distribution centre and supplied to shops as they need them At the Australian Warehouse Distribution Centre

 Some of the big stores have their own warehouses and distribution centres  They get the Xbox delivered to them and then send them out to their shops all around Australia  They can also send the Xbox direct to your home  Nearly all Xboxes delivered this way are sent by road  Let’s look at the Xbox Supply Chain again Getting the Xbox to the Store
