Hi,

Please have a look at this:

 

One company won board approval for a wholesale reconfiguration of its supply chain in early summer 2008, which required a huge capital investment over the next two years. When sales suddenly dropped 10% in one month that fall, the board urged the company to postponed the supply chain effort

 

=> what does 'wholesale reconfiguration of its supply chain' mean?

 

Thank you very much,

Nessie.
