West Marine Case SCM800

profileQuarterback05

Question 2: List and explain the primary dangers of executing an acquisition when the company does not have a solid supply chain foundation?  Utilize the point in time just after the E&B acquisition. (20 total points)

• Sometimes when you are inside a company it is difficult to see the forest for the trees--always fighting today’s battles! Therefore, for this question place yourself in the position of a consultant with 100% complete access to West Marine via the case. 

• The intent of this question is for you to probe the case for the strategic dangers that lurk in the absence of a solid supply chain infrastructure 

• An average response will identify at least two dangers.  A top-level response will identify four. Do not exceed four! I am not looking for extensive lists---I am looking for depth and breadth.
