Wait, are we really considering sales quotas? Seems off.

I'm pretty confident on this one. Reducing distribution centers will lower transport costs both from the factory to the centers and from the centers to the customers. That should be the main long-term effect, leading to overall cost savings.

Hmm, I'm not totally sure about this one. Is it Mitigation? That's where we identify and address risks, so maybe that's where management decides how to allocate resources. I'll have to think about this a bit more.

Okay, I think I've got this. Academic detailing involves health plan representatives meeting with providers to educate them on the plan's preferred drugs and encourage them to follow the formulary.
