  • Abstract
    We document a case study based upon an ongoing analysis for a U.S. fiber/fabric manufacturer who is expanding its operations vertically to include cut and sew operations in Mexico. We refer to this vertically integrated manufacturer as VIM. While some of the data have been changed to protect the sources, the story and results themselves are unchanged. More detail on this case can be found in Moon (1999)
