Mary - re: "They should get rid of the bean counter mentality (guess who I have in mind) and hire some real mathematical types knowledgeable in supply chain or inventory control management. Just do the math " No. It isn't that simple. It isn't simple at all. The double-ordering by customers, the cancellation of orders by customers (with impunity), global economic melt downs, earthquakes, Epoxy refinery blow ups , silicon wafer shortages - it is not a simple business like making Coca Cola or tire rims, or pencils.
