Q. Question To Ask A Lean Manufacturing Consultant Before Hiring: What Is Your Lean Manufacturing Approach For My Facility (manufacturing organization)?

Firms x, y, and z produce and sell an identical product and operate in an oligopolistic market whose daily demand is

Q = 720 – 4P. Their respective T.C. functions per day are:

T.C.x = 2,600 + 1.25Q2, T.C.y = 2,400 + 1,25Q2, and T.C.z = 1,800 + 1.25Q2

Assume that these three firms agree to join efforts to create a cartel and act as a monopoly and agree to the following market shares of the artificially created monopoly’s optimum output or Q*: Firm x: 40%, Firm y: 35%, and Firm z: 25%.

Kit Kat is the UK's best-selling chocolate bar. 650 bars are consumed every second globally. Kit Kat was introduced in 1958 and continues to generate strong consumer demand. In 2009, Kit Kat was listed as one of Time’s “13 Most Influential Candy Bars of All Time”. Kit Kat is also the number one best-selling chocolate in Japan, and the only non-American brand in America’s list of top 5 chocolate favorites. Kit Kat is the world’s first chocolate bar made from 100% sustainable cocoa. Kit Kat has a case to be the healthiest candy bar in the market. Kit Kat’s tagline is a simple and memorable “Have a break...Have a Kit Kat!” one that effectively communicates the brand’s vision. With such a catchy tagline, Kit Kat has branded itself as the go-to social snack for people of all ages. In late 2013, just as Kit Kat was searching for the next brand to partner with, Google approached Kit Kat with a proposal to name version 4.4 of their Android operating system the Android Kit Kat.

However, in the competitive modern world consumers' tastes continually change. There has been in recent years an ongoing revolution in modifying products. In previous times, sweets and chocolate bars remained in more or less the same form for many years. Today, however, modern sophisticated consumers constantly seek novelty and change, and consumers have become the driving force behind product modification.

Although Kit Kat continued to be the Number 1 confectionery brand, by the late 2010s its volume sales were falling. Faced with several increasingly attractive competitive offerings, consumers began to see Kit Kat in its traditional form as lacking in excitement and interest, with purchases being driven more by habit than positive choice. Although the four-finger Kit Kat continued to be highly popular with its core target market of 25-40-year-olds, it was losing popular appeal with younger consumers.

The image problem was most evident among core count line consumers i.e. The youth segment those who are between the ages of 12-20-year-olds. In this important age group, while Kit Kat had been part of 'growing up' and may also have made regular appearances in lunch boxes, it was hardly relevant to their lifestyle. Moreover, Kit Kat created the International Youth Day that supports the youth of today to move forward in their dreams and aspirations along with enjoying their breaks. Kit Kat intensifies its promotion campaign to this segment during exams time. Students after being exhausted from studying turn to Kit Kat for a break. Kit Kat recognizes the power of digital networks and social media platforms in influencing the youth consumer choice and strategically uses social media to win their affections. The traditional four-finger Kit Kat did not seem relevant to them. In 2011 therefore, Nestlé felt it was time for some re-invention. The company decided to develop a new format of Kit Kat whilst still retaining the four-finger variety with which consumers are so familiar.

Nestle is a market-focused producer that recognizes the need for regular change. This is required because consumers want and demand change, rival firms are constantly re-inventing themselves and their products and, innovation and inventiveness keep an organization flexible and able to respond to further change.

To find out exactly what consumers were looking for, Nestlé carried out detailed market research, including detailed qualitative research. Many pairs of young people were invited to give their views on different formats for the new product whether they preferred one or two fingers, what flavors they preferred (caramel, peanut butter, orange jelly, chocolate layers, etc). Researchers also considered the most appropriate form of packaging to add further interest and attraction to the product. A survey group might consist of, for example, males and females who were 17, 18, 19 or 20 years old, of different ethnic origin, from different parts of the UK, and a mix of students and non-students.

A top Kit Kat competitor, Cadbury is an international confectionery company that is headquartered in London, United Kingdom. It was founded during the year 1824 and the company is owned by Mondelez International since 2010. Cadbury's main objective is to become the World’s biggest confectionery company in the world. Cadbury brand is considered as the second-largest brand in the world. It has its business operations in about 50 countries. Cadbury always seeks to challenge Kit Kat in every segment of the market. Cadbury is legally fighting Nestlé over the shape of Kit Kat. In short Cadbury and Nestlé are bitter rivals and Cadbury is looking for the appropriate time to attack Nestlé.
