The performance feedback form is designed to support employee growth and development. It includes ratings for critical job tasks, identification of strengths and areas for growth with examples and competencies, and goals. The manager collects feedback from their experiences and team members to evaluate the employee's performance semiannually using this form. Both the manager and employee provide ratings which are discussed, with the manager's rating as the final decision. However, employees can appeal ratings to HR. The process aims to have open communication and determine if employees are developing and should be retained. The form was evaluated positively overall for supporting development and communication between managers and employees.

Walmart has highly effective supply chain management practices that have contributed significantly to its success. It uses procurement strategies like direct sourcing from manufacturers and vendor managed inventory. Logistically, it employs cross-docking and a hub-and-spoke distribution model. Walmart also pioneered the use of IT in supply chain management, developing systems for inventory tracking, replenishment, and collaboration with suppliers. These integrated IT systems and data-driven practices help Walmart maintain low inventory levels while still ensuring high product availability.
Wal-Mart implemented RFID technology to improve supply chain efficiency. It required top suppliers to tag pallets and cases with RFID by 2005.
