Research Strategies

Chances are, you will not find one document that provides all of the information you need to complete this assignment. You are going to have to read several articles, the 10-K, etc to find the information you need.

To cite articles, look at the specific database information page available via the Electronic Resources A-Z list. For more information on citing, see the Citing Resources page.

10K

Thomson One Banker or Capital IQ or Mergent Online or Edgar Online

DON'T PRINT THE WHOLE THING. Open the html or Word version and use the Ctrl+F function and the word stem suppl or distrib etc. to find instances of discussion about suppliers and distribution.

EBSCOhost

  Supply Chain Management
  Sloan Management Review

Factiva

Change the date range to all dates available

Use the atleastn function to limit articles that mention your search terms n times. For example, type in:

  atleast5 mcdonald* and atleast5 suppl*

to retrieve only those articles that mention McDonald's and a form of suppl (supplier, supplied, supply) at least five times each. Tweak the numbers to get an appropriate number of hits.

You can also use supply chain management as a subject term from the drill down menu and type in atleastn company name to retrieve appropriate articles.
