OPERATIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Cross Training
Consider implementing the training policies you have in place in Hong Kong in China
Let the risk factor determine which jacket to produce in which location
STRATEGIC OPTIONS
How should Obermeyer management think (both shortterm and long-term) about sourcing in Hong Kong
versus China?
