...Why is it important for an e-business model to create value in a way that is differentiated from the way competitors’ models create value? For any type of business model, it is important to differentiate your product/service from its competition. This differentiation is critical in creating value for long term competitive advantage. Therefore, it attracts customers who see more value for what they pay. Further, differentiation that is difficult to imitate results in sustainable competitive advantage. Examples: Apple’s operating software in iPhone is the differentiating factor that results in customer loyalty and competitive advantage. What is the Balanced Scorecard and how do companies use it in e-business? Developed by Kaplan and Norton, the Balanced Scorecard aims to highlight the value-creating functions. It matches the present happenings with the future aims by explaining the vision and strategy through four components: 1- Customer Perspective 2- Internal Perspective 3- Financial Perspective 4- Learning and Growth Perspective. For each of the above perspectives, it captures the objectives, measures, targets and initiatives that help to define the overall vision and strategy of the organisation. As the balance scorecard is used by a range of businesses, similarly, it is used in the e-business as well. However, the measures, targets and initiatives that highlight the performance of the objectives tend to change from that of other businesses...

...Analysis- Local Context Executive Summary: In the case we are challenged with the lofty task of enhancing the procurement process. In effort to accomplish this goal, Mars has implemented the online auction model. This is where an RFQ or request for quote is issued and suppliers make bids to satisfy the request. After adopting this model for procurement there were challenges that presented itself. The optimal solution varied, based on the conditions and constraints imposed on the model. In this exercise we had to develop strategies to determine the winner of the multi-item allocation in combinatorial auctions, with regards to the optimal policy. We also had to address the shift in market demand for Mars products. And this initiative exhibited proximity constraints, and supplier conditions were imposed. In conclusion, we found that each scenario warranted a solution, and the team had to generate a customized solution for every constraint. This exercise is a microcosm of how business works outside of academia. There isn’t a cookie cutter solution for procurement or any business process. As an executive one must be vigilant and sensitive to the changes in the market and the constraints imposed on the supply chain. Question 1 As always, we will build a base-model to understand the main thrust of the problem by relaxing some considerations (constraints). For example, for now, we will ignore the constraint of the number of winning bidders and/or maximum total winning bids...

In Excel, use a suitable method for simulating the lost revenue for each day the copier is out of service. 4. Put all of this together to simulate the lost revenue due to copier breakdowns over 1 year to answer the question asked in the case study. 5. In a word processing program, write a brief description/explanation of how you implemented each component of the model. Write 1-2 paragraphs for each component of the model (days-to-repair; interval between breakdowns; lost revenue; putting it together). 6. Answer the question posed in the case study.

He further describes that every organization learns in a unique way and pass through five stages. This whole article somehow revolves around these five stages that simon has mentioned. He suggests every organization to navigate through these stages in order to make their organization a good corporate citizen. He describes that in defensive stage most companies face unexpected criticism from civil activists, media and stakeholders while the company’s responses authorized by legal teams and tend to involve denials of accusations.
