## 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.

### Questions for researching Pratt & Whitney

- Which current company materials identify its products and customer industries?
- Does the public history distinguish the original company from later acquisitions or subsidiaries?
- What dated evidence supports claims about facilities, distribution, or operating scale?
