. Weyerhaeuser, the international wood and paper products company, must constantly plan for ways to convert a vast array of inputs into outputs, for instance, pulp into paper.

Weyerhaeuser has an extensive Web site that offers information about its wood and paper products, recycling efforts, forest management, and subsidiary businesses such as the distributor First Choice. Visit the site at www.wy.com and browse through it to find a product, division, or subsidiary that interests you. Then write a memo describing how you think Weyerhaeuser might use a mixed strategy for capacity planning.
