Lean principles

* a supply and delivery network of firms capable of supplying the right product, at the right cost at the right time to the customer with as little waste as possible. -total elimination of all wastes -optimization of all resources -toolbox of methods for process improvement 1. Produce value: value defined by customer 2. Optimize the value stream: expose and remove barriers to optimizing value 3. Convert the process to flow: enable continuous flow of goods and service production 4. activate the demand pull: customer should pull product through system 5. perfection of all products, processes and services: continuously improve efficiency, cost, cycle times etc

Different classes of IT investments

*incremental innovation 1. low risk, operational IT (around 60%): core applications, commodity IT services that run daily business 2. Medium risk, differntiating (10-30%): focus on winning whatever game is being played in a business sector; points of differentiation for TODAY 3. High risk, rule changing IT (remaining %): speculative IT investments; change for tomorrow *radical innovation

Supply chain

- a network of resources and activities that supports the production of goods and services or e services

Supply chain coordination

- a supply chain if fully coordinated when all decisions are aligned to accomplish global system objectives

Stage 1 SCM mgmt practies

- decentralized logistics functions, logistics staff work in all functions =5000 BC- 1960s =fundamental problem: acquisition of materials and demand for goods stretch beyond location where products are made =result: disjointed, uncoordinated, costly logistics =IT installed in internal value chain

Infrastructure artifacts

- hardware, networks, networking apps

Lack of supply chain coordinaion

- occurs when decision makers have incomplete info or incentives that are not compatible with system objectives

Customer relationship Management (CRM)

-A complete system that: 1. provides a means and method to enhance customer's experiences so they remain customers for life 2.provides both tech and functional means of identifying, capturing, and retaining customers 3. provides a unified view of the customer across the enterprise *a strategic tool *core principle: customer insight

Enterprise artifacts

-ERP -enterprise business systems (EBS) -advanced manufacturing technologies (AMT)

Best practices when choosing between IT projects

-IT function needs to have active involvement/ partnership of business area manager -project analysis should involve a rational NPV -project needs tangible and intangible benefits -business unit partner must own the benefits and their execution

Global Trade Mgmt solutions

-IT system for managing global trade events by achieving effective/ efficient: 1. compliance: automating customs compliance 2. Content: accurate trade info 3. connectivity: connect to set of trading partners using EDI, WWW,SaaS 4. Finance: transactional finance

Types of CRM

-PTN: product tracking number -CRT: customer returns tracking -RIF: returns info tracking -HIE: health info exchange

Value, defined

-Value is defined by the customer -value is difficult to quantify -value is multi-dimesnional (functional, economic, and emotional) -value depends on tradeoffs -value is relative to alternatives -value depends on the end-use context -value is a mindset

Enterprise function

-ability to continuously design, assemble and deliver its customer value propostion

Management of Technology

-an academic/ professional field that studies: =how tech affects a firm's mission, stratefgy, and tactics = how to use existing tech effectively =how to manage tech exploitation and exploration in a firm =how to use tech to innovate =how to select new and appropriate techs =how to nurture tech adoption by end users =how to manage tech based firms =how to develop new tech

Core competencies and channel capabilites

-basis of business today rests on two pillars:

Franchising strategy

-best of breed functional approach =bes of breed within each functional area =suits large, diverse companies with non common processes =install independent ERP compnents within each functional area, integrate ERP as necessary across functions

Federated control

-break down hierarchical structure, allow people more freedom to innovate, responsive to market =standarize common info that all units share =some modules have local control

Stage 2 SCM mgmt practices

-centralized logistics functions, application of computers -total cost Management =1960s-1980s =fundamental problem:how to centralize logistics? how to apply total cost to logistics? =result: try to figure out new computer tech and process improvement strategies (JIT,TQM)

Stage 3 SCM mgmt practices

-closer integration of logistics w/ other departments and supply partners, logistics as a strategy -integrated logistics mgmt =1980-1990 =fundamental problem: Foreign companies beating US in auto and other products, how to compete on quality? =result:TQM and Six Sigma, lean processes

Value of a real option

-comes from decision making flexibility -managers can participate in the upside of the option, but limit losses to the cost of acquiring option =project is good, keep going =project not good, terminate to avoid loss -option value= difference between the expected value of the project with the option

social CRM

-engage customers in collab. conversation -provide mutuall beneficial value -trusted and transparent environment customers access firm'smessage, contribute,edit and share it

IRR problems

-execs prefer IRR to NPV -hurdle for IRR sometimes set at overly high return rates =possible to have multiple IRR -only used to evaluate a single project -IRR neglects the size of a project -does not consider time value of money

Slam dunk (quick wins)

-focus on implementing ERP only for a few key processes -plant to implement more ERP in future

Problems with NPV analysis

-ignores risks, opportunities, flexibilities -assumes a fixed path of investments and outcomes ("Big Bang implementation" -does not account for managerial flexibility to make decisions -using high hurdle rates leads to bias toward incremental investments ahead of revolutionary IT =high hurdle rates drive managers to propose small and easier investment

Real options

-provides the right but not obligation to buy or sell some real world asset at some future time -represent active mgmt of an IT project -rang of possible outcomes greatly improve when you have a real option

Tactical objectives of CRM

-retain existing customers and win new ones -optimization of profitability =Lifetime customer value (LCV): customer's total sales revenue over lifetime of relationship, minus cost of serving, discounted by inflation - higher the level, the better service the customer gets
