Operations

For this week's discussion, please respond to the following: 

1. How would your NAB business work in terms of operations (production, inventory control, distribution, customer service, research and development, etc.)?

Notes: 

· You will have to include all the equipment, technology and personnel listed in your NAB Company Portfolio from your business plan. The information is located under Note #2 in the portfolio. 

· You must use the information from the NAB Portfolio first and then you can add to it.  

· Check out Chapter 11: Operations to learn more. 

You will use this week's information in Assignment 3.
