Research context: Manufacturing and industrial businesses
For an industrial company, research the actual products and where the business participates in the supply chain. Designing a product, manufacturing it, distributing it, and servicing it are distinct activities. The founding record helps identify the organization, but does not show which facilities, subsidiaries, or product lines it operates today.
