Summary:

12th Stryke, a manufacturer of bowling balls, faces delays from the recent supply chain challenges impacting customer deliveries. While the company has supplemented production offshore for the last 20 years, company leadership has decided to evaluate the prospects of reshoring and producing 100% of its product in the United States. There are many factors to consider in this decision. The company needs a break-even analysis of the two options, including consideration for potential wage growth in the United States and offshore and the impact of ongoing labor productivity improvements. This case encourages students to consider the financial and non-financial aspects of onshore and offshore production by producing a recommendation for a course of action.
