Derrick is relatively pleased with his plan as it gets all the machines for Shell built within their desired timeframe. This plan will allow Derrick to keep a close eye on his team to ensure top quality products are manufactured. As Derrick was admiring his manufacturing plan, Kevin from marketing stopped by his office to let him know he may need to do some additional planning. The marketing team is working on an order for an additional three motors of similar size and scope to the Shell project. These units would be sold to Valero Energy and would also be due in June 2020. It is expected that confirmation of this order would be expected within the next four months and Kevin estimates there is a SID/SD chance that they will land the order. The price and prot margins of these additional machines would be the same as on the Shell project. Derrick is excited about the possibility ofthe new order with Valero Energy...but knows he has some work ahead of him to see how it can be accommodated and meet the customer expectations. Questions: 1. Is it possible to complete both the Shell and Valero Energy orders and meet both customer due dates? How did you arrive at your answer? 2. Complete a make or buy analysis for the coolers in the case study. Use the given templates and show all calculations
