Dresser, L., and J. Rogers. The State of Working Wisconsin 2000. COWS.
The economic expansion that began in 1991 has turned out to be longer and stronger than any other in American history. Over the last five years, economic growth and declining unemployment rates have started to bear fruit for working families’ incomes. Even so, the typical American family is working more hours, wage inequality remains high, poverty has stagnated rather than fallen, and poor job quality is still a serious American problem.
Documents include both Full Report and Summary.

Rickert, J., J. Rogers, D. Vassina, J. Whitford, and J. Zeitlin. Common Problems & Collaborative Solutions: OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer)-Supplier Relationships and the Wisconsin Manufacturing Partnerships Supplier Training Consortium. COWS, 2000.
This report examines individual OEMs’ (Original Equipment Manufacturer) supplier management strategies, focusing on commonalities and differences in their approach to broadly similar problems associated with supply-chain rationalization.. While all the OEMs in the study aim at getting their products quicker to the customer by trimming supply chains, establishing closer relationships with suppliers, and assisting them in performance improvement, each OEM follows a different path, depending on its size, corporate structure, products, and markets. The report concludes with policy recommendations for the consortium.
