You are the Vice President of Operations for a retail clothing store chain with stores located in five Southeastern States and three providences in Canada. Profits have been declining for the past five years. You are a big believer in carefully managingyour companies' "value/supply chain". You are making a presentation to the Executive Management of your company in a few days. You MAY NOT deal in generalities. You must list specific items in the company's value chain and discuss how they might be analyzed to improve the operations of the business, specifically the "bottom line".
