BACKGROUND
Get There Navigation Technologies (GTNT) has been in business for 34 years and has traditionally been profitable.The company has an excellent reputation for producing high-quality navigation equipment used in the car rental and transportation industries.The company produces four models of navigation equipment.The owner and founder of the business, John Zillon, is a person who likes to act on instinct instead of establishing formal plansand is a genius in designing and building small home-use equipment.Zillon, however, is not well suited to leading a team-oriented and fully coordinated business effort.Sales forecasting and determining specific customer needs have never been high on his list of priorities.While the four models have many interchangeable parts and some assembly line operations and activities could be consolidated, Zillonhas refused to do so and maintains four separate assembly lines for the four models.
