Summary
This paper deals with the investigation of product portfolios in a make-to-order manufacturing setting characterized by demand uncertainty and limited production capacity. Using a simple two-period model we address the general question of planning under uncertainty and show the profit/cost implications of an individual contract in the portfolio and their dependence on capacity tightness.
