An article in the New York Times titled “What an Adult Tricycle says about the world’s bottleneck problems” (August 23, 2021) describes the 500 adult bikes, and $ 2 million in inventory, waiting for a $30 derailleurs from a Taiwanese supplier at Catrike, an adult bicycle manufacturer in Orlando, Florida. The article shows lead times growing from 59 to 87 days from Indonesia to Orlando, container costs increasing by a factor of 5, and supply chain participants hesitant to increase prices. What options do manufacturers have to maintain revenues and ship products in the face of these challenges ? Would 3D printing finally have its breakthrough and see increased adoption ? Should services that redesign products to adjust to available supply see increased adoption ?
