You own Falzer’s Tool Coating Company, a high-tech firm specializing in the coating of cutting tools (e.g., drill bits, cutting blades) to provide longer life before re- sharpening is needed. You are concerned that the competition continues to develop new coating methods and new applications of coating in different industries.

What are some of the problems you need to be aware of?
