Case Study: The Realco Breatymaster

Two years ago, Johnny Chang's company, Realco, introduced a new breadmaker, which, due to its competitive pricing and features, was a big success across the United States. While delighted to have the business, Johnny felt uneasy about the lack of formal planning surrounding the product. He found himself constantly wondering, $"$Do we have enough breadmakers to meet the orders we've already accepted? Even if we do$,$ will we have enough to meet expected future demands? Should I be doing something right now to plan for all this?"
