Goal/Mission StatementIncrease business potential, create jobs and generate revenue for ABVI
Objectives
Identify potential soft goods manufacturing operations that ABVI could add to current production capabilitiesIdentify and evaluate potential upcycling techniques to maximize donation value of bulk textile materials. Identify characteristics (i.e. capabilities, layout, procedures)Identify potential areas for improvement based on these characteristicsState consumer problems, and define the nature of product/service opportunities that are created by those problems.

StakeholdersSlide4
ABVI has a long term goal to enhance the lives of the visually impaired. AVBI is looking to expand on their existing revenues sources by creating new product to compete nationally. These products can either be new softgood produces or new processed textiles.
Softgoods Production
New material is sewed into a finished product.
The finished product is of high quality.
Purchase additional machines if proven to increase profit.
Both
ABVI maintains status of having high integrity and consciousness.
The final products needs to have a reliable and sustained market for product viability.
The process is competitive in the US market and potentially in the global market.
The process increases employment opportunities for the blind and visually impaired community.
Utilize existing resources.
Upcycling Textile
ABVI will upcycle the material instead of selling it to an outside manufacturer to upcycle.
One Goodwill location per region will grind up the textiles for that region.
Compare the profitability of selling the shredded material vs. processing further to create a product.
Shredder should look for product opportunities to increase the value of the shredded fabric

ABVI maintains status of having high integrity and consciousness.
The final products need to have a reliable and sustained market for product viability.
Usage
ABVI will upcycle the material instead of selling it to an outside manufacturer to upcycle.
The recycling process needs to maximize profit per pound of donated material.
The upcycling process needs to be more profitable than selling the material to a secondary company.
Purchase additional machines if proven to increase profit.
Manufacturing utilizes current machinery.
Resources
A total of 400 million pounds of textiles from Goodwills all over the country need to be recycled .
One Goodwill location per region will grind up the textiles for that region.
Process uses pre-cut material for sewing.
Utilizes a workforce of 20-30 skilled workers or more.
