    Hewlett-Packard : DeskJet Printer Supply Chain

    This case describes a challenge faced by HP's Vancouver Division in 1990. Although its new inkjet
    printers were selling well, inventory levels worldwide were rising as sales rose. In Europe, high
    product variety was making inventory levels especially high. HP considered several ways to address
    the inventory issue: air-freighting printers to Europe, developing more formalized inventory
    planning processes, or building a factory in Europe.
