1. Evaluate NHLE’s value chain?
-What does the overall value chain for this sector look like (raw material to delivery)?
-Which portions is NHLE currently engaged in?
-How would it change under the three variants of the expansion opportunity?
Are there alternatives to vertical integration that the case doesn’t describe?
2. How would the potential changes in vertical integration affect NHLEs exposure to opportunism?
3. How would the potential changes in vertical integration affect NHLEs flexibility?
4. How well do the potential changes in vertical integration align with NHLEs resources/capabilities, organizational structure, and strategic goals?
I need 1-2 pages answering these questions.
