What impact would the Kanban system have on Torchbox’s inventory planning methodology?                                                         

                       

Bharat Motors has been selling the “Konard” brand of passenger cars in India for the last

60 years. Their car has been the leading car market share wise for the last 50 years. But,for the last 5 years the scenario has changed. Many multinational car companies have

entered the country and introduced highly fuel efficient, user friendly, & high performance

models in the country. The buyers have thus seen the market change from sellers to

buyers’ market. Spectacular product characteristics have become the rule of the day.

Resultantly Konard has rapidly and constantly lost the market share. Realizing that the

company has no other alternative, they have tied up with a leading car company of Korea

and are now ready to launch an absolutely new and drastically improved version of the old

faithful Konard.

Channels of distribution for books have gone through a metamorphosis in recent years with the emergence of e-books, such as Amazon’s Kindle, Barnes & Noble’s Nook, or Apple’s iPad. Indeed, by mid-2010, Amazon.com reported that sales of books through its Kindle outnumbered its sales of hardcover books by a ratio of 180 e-books for every 100 hardcover books sold. Only paperback books still sold more units than e-books. But the e-book channel continued to grow rapidly to account for close to 10 percent of total book sales by the end of 2010. Do you think e-book channels will eventually totally replace conventional, physical book channels? Why or why not?
