Analysis.	Pre-cut Buy logs of material from a distributor, already pre-cut to the widths you require.	Out-source Buy entire logs direct from the manufacturer, but pay another company to slit them into specified widths as needed.	Manual Buy entire logs of material direct from the manufacturer and slit rolls manually using scissors and a long table. (This may be feasible for some materials, such as fabric and banner, but not others.)	Smart Buy entire logs of material direct from the manufacturer and slit/convert them as needed in-house with your own SmartSlitter.
