English term or phrase: forced to
a firm with good marketing and sales strategies is forced to produce and distribute faster, but any potential gain in competitive advantage will be feeble if operations activities (and available resources and capabilities) do not match the challenge of a
sudden increase in demand (you cannot offer more than you can really produce).
