Product Details

A spreadsheet model, AgileSavins, was written to support the Bacardi Southampton cases (A), (B), and (C). The Excel model and model analyses can be obtained by contacting Professor Robert D. Landel at The Darden School, University of Virginia (phone 434 924 4832 or email: landelr@darden.virginia.edu). This spreadsheet model is useful for students evaluating multiyear cost consequences of three alternative production planning systems that follow from analyses of the "Bacardi Southampton (A): A New Paradigm of Agile Thinking," (OM-1067). Users can identify the sources of costs and benefits of the alternative production-planning systems under consideration at the company and then analyze the seven operating scenarios presented in the case.
