Another issue is the JIT suitability. Safety stock is still required which would beget calling it a just in time system. This must be addressed on both sides. Issues for Trimco include quality control problems. Shipping defective material, incorrect material, and even damaged parts, causes increased cost and decreased productivity for both Trimco and Navistar. Another issue for Trimco, which was also an issue for Navistar, was JIT suitability. It seems that at times Navistar expectation can be too high with the last minute specification changes, which can lead to incorrectly punched parts, or incorrectly sent parts that has been an issue.

I, Marilyn Dowling, am the vice president of the National Association Against Police Brutality. Which is more commonly known as the NAAPB. We have been made aware of the incident between Mr. Tony Roberts and Officer Blake Mattox. We would like to thank you for all of the footage that you sent with your letter. It was very useful in helping us decide that Officer Mattox is guilty. We believe this because of the video captured by Officer Mattox’s body camera. From what we saw it is pointing all of the blame to Mattox.

I recommend that Vistakon commence its launch nationwide. 1-Day Acuvue Disposable Contact Lenses (1-D Acuvue) represents a differentiated and exciting soft contact lens product. The point of difference of 1-D Acuvue relative to other soft contact lenses is its convenience and comfort. The primary market segment for 1-D Acuvue is the part-time contact lens wearer (3.9MM of total U.S population), who wore them only on certain events. Vistakon would encounter less price resistance with these part-time users due to the less frequency use, and more willing to pay a higher unit price than regular daily wear customers due to the product’s high quality, convenience and comfort. Secondary market segment is the full-time (conventional and frequent

All cars are good, they have changed the way we live and move for essentially the last century, but over the last few decades trucks have make a prominent surge into the average consumer mentality instead of just as a commercial vehicle.

3) Interaction with people who use the part – Mr. Watkins frequently visits the plant floor and talks with the workers to see if there are any concerns with materials.

Navistar considered quality and on-time delivery as a priority that came before costs; therefore, top management as well as initiatives to improve processes and on-time delivery supported various improvement initiatives to quality programs. Andy is an assembly supervisor but had very broad job responsibilities. Andy’s time was taken up in areas such as supplier quality evaluations, internal process documentation, process improvement, and much more. His focus was very widespread and his day was drawn away from scheduled and unscheduled meetings; this position required long hours and weekend work. In addition to the quality issues, truck interior trim shortages was another challenge, which resulted in reordering of trim parts leading to additional material handling, and post-assembly installation. These delayed parts required overtime that increased cost and delayed delivery of the finished truck of the customer. Issues came from both Navistar and their supplier Trimco. Navistar had design changes such as different sizes, repositioning of mechanisms and other various designer and material changes; however, these changes to the truck interiors were not communicated to Trimco before production runs were completed. As a result, parts were shipped with different specifications than those needed for proper fit during assembly. Due to the lack of coordination and communication,

Patagonia strives to provide quality clothing and outdoor equipment while staying as environmentally friendly as possible. A hiking boot, for example, would need to fit strict requirements. The boot would need to be durable, comfortable, stylish, and made from environmentally friendly products. You also need to determine if there is a large enough market for the product. This would provide the means necessary to determine if the product has the highest chance of being successful. Given these strict requirements, one way to help keep the costs down is to use recycled material from older products that costumers turn in, therefore saving resources and money.

This industry sells automotive parts and other products used to maintain or repair light and heavy duty vehicles. Products are sold both to consumers who repair or accessorize their own vehicles, the “do it yourselfers” (DIY) and to professional service stations or installers like gas stations, auto repair

"Cultures are dynamic and change occurs when resistance slowly yields to acceptance so the basis for resistance becomes unimportant or forgotten"[2].
