Basic of supply chain is the average company spends nearly half of every dollar that it earns on production needs-goods and services it needs from external suppliers to keep producing.A supply chain consists of all parties involved directly or indirectly in the procurement of a product or raw material.Supply chain management (SCM) involves the management of information flows between and among stages in a supply chain to maximize total supply chain effectiveness and profitability.Organization must embrace technologies that can effectively manage and over see their supply chains.Beside that information technology's role in the supply chain involves 5 basic supply chain management components that is:

2.  Customize the logistics network and focus intensively on the service requirements and on the profitability of the preidentified customer segments
3. Listen to signals of market demand and plan accordingly.Planning must span the entire chain to detect signals of changing demand
4. Differrentiate products closer to the customer since companies can no longer afford to hold inventory to compensate for poor demand forecasting
5. Strategically manage sources of supply by working with key suppliers to reduce overall costs of owning materials and services
6. Develop a supply chain information technology strategy that supports different levels of decision making and provides a clear view (visibility) of the flow of products .services and information.
7. Adopt performance evaluation measures that apply to every link in the supply chain and measure true probitability at every stages

Key performance indicators (KPIs) are the measures that are tied o business drivers. Metric are the detailed measures that feed those (KPIs)..Efficiency and effectiveness IT metric is to measure the performance of the IT system itself and measure the impact IT on the business process and activity respectively.In this chapter i have learn how the interrelationships of efficiency and effectiveness It metrics operate.Efficiency IT metrics focus on the technology itself.While these efficiency metrics are important  to monitor,they do not always guarantee effectiveness.

This chapter give me a lot of knowledge about strategic initiatives..

CIO,CTO,CSO,CPO and CKO.Besides that,i also learn the gap between business personnel and It personnel.Improving communications is one of the information i get in this chapter.

Business Driven Technology (MGT 300 ).

Assalammualaikum,
              hai,remember me ! haha..First of all i would to says thanks to my lecturer Miss Salina, and to all my friend in DIN 5B who support me very much.. Actually i would like to give a comment about Mgt 300. This subject is very interesting when you learn it.. Why i say like that because,we can know what is actually IT and where it come from. From my sides,it is good subject .In addition,i can get a little bit info about It when i read or learn this subject..This subject explain to me how one company used their IT to promote or advertise their product to customer or supplier..By learning this subject i might have a knowledge about Business Driven Technology.

~Mgt 300 come back ! ~

Previous post we learn about IT right? Today i'm gone share with you how to Identifying Competitive Advantage, and what is Competitive advantage ?

To survive and thrive,an organization must create a competitive advantage.What do you know about CA ? Competitive Advantage is a product or service that an organization's customers place a greater value on than similar offerings from a competitor.Unfortunately,competitive advantage are typically temporary because competitors often seek ways to duplicate the competitive advantage.

When organization is the first to market with a competitive advantage,it gains a first-mover advantage. The first mover advantage occurs when an organization can significantly impact its market share by being first to market with a competitive advantage.Besides that,they must pay close attention to their competition through Environmental Scanning.
Environment Scanning is the acquisition and analysis of events and trends in the environment external to an organization.


The Five Forces Model-Evaluating Business Segments:


Helps determine the relative attractiveness of an industry and include the following five forces:

1)Buyer power.
-Analyzing the ability of buyers to directly impact the price they are willing to pay for an item.The factors used to assess buyer power include number of customers,size of orders,difference between competitors,sensitivity of price and availability of substitute products.One way to reduce buyer power is by switching costs.
Switching costs are costs that can make customers reluctant to switch to another product or service.For example : switching doctors is difficult because the new doctor will not have the patient's history and the relationship with the patient.Another example is to expand and improve services so it is harder for customers to leave,by doing a loyalty programs (reward customers based on the amount of business they do with particular organization.

2)Supplier power.
-Is assessed by the suppliers' ability to directly impact the price they are charging for supplies (including materials,labor and services).If supplier power is high the supplier can directly influence the industry by:
a)Charging higher prices
b)limiting quality or services
c)shifting costs to industry participants.

3)Threat of substitute products or services.
-High when there are many alternatives to a product or services and low when there are few alternatives from which to choose. Example :there are many substitute products in the airline industry..


4)Threat of new entrants
-High when it is easy for new competitors to enter a market and low when there are significant entry barriers to entering a market.


RIVALRY AMONG EXISTING COMPETITORS.
-High when competition is fierce in a market and low when competition is more complacent. Most implement loyalty programs to provide customers special discounts.


Besides that, mgt 300 also have the three generic strategies... Where this topic is explain about the cost strategies. In other hand, we also learn about value chain analysis in which we have value creation..A business process is a standardized set of activities that accomplish a specific task,such as processing a customer's order. Futhermore, the value chain approach views an organization as a series of processes,each of which adds value to the product or service for each customer.
So,the conclusion is we need to know how to identify the competitive advantage and know how to solve it..

Okay,night is still young..but my eye is so sleepy.. this my summarizes about MGT 300 in this topic..

`~Woww,Mgt 300~
