To do: 1. In the Chad's case, we saw how Chad's is trying to meet two different business strategies (i.e., one for each of the two different product lines) using the same operations, and it isn't working. Q3 of the posted document (see "Modules and Learning Objectives") asks this: Chad's seems to be at a crossroads - their business has evolved, and some opportunities and challenges have emerged. What do you think that Chad's should do going forward, with their business and operations strategies? Provide a one or two paragraph answer. 2. Make a forecast for period 22, using any method that you wish (this is only asking you to take a minute and make an educated guess using your intuition or any ad hoc mathematical method you come up with; you are not expected to apply the forecasting techniques from the textbook, we will be learning those next week).
