Product Overview

This is the first of a four-part case charting the influence of technological shifts on decision making in the light bulb industry. After years of a stable industry, with little change in products or distribution, Westinghouse introduces a bulb with markedly longer life, which calls attention to prevailing cost factors. The case provides opportunities for analyzing the interplay of demands among consumers, retailers, and manufacturers.
