Enablement of the Supply Management Organization
Although center-led organizations will continue to dominate for the next decade, as global operations become more complex, hybrid center-led models will begin to emerge to maximize value based upon the right mix of responsiveness and centralized control. Successful organizations will need to adopt and utilize appropriate supply chain technologies that integrate functional management and track appropriate metrics. |

Sloppy naming
| |
| If you've got more than one product or service, you have a problem. You need to decide if there's going to be an architecture to the way you name things. General Motors has a division, Chevrolet. Chevrolet makes cars, and each car has a name (Corvette, Impala). They have an architecture in place that makes some things clear very quickly. |

Double Marginalization and the Point of Ideal Price Viability
| |
| Referencing my last post (Double Marginalization and the Decentralized Supply Chain, August 9, 2007) double marginalization “DM” is defined as the “exercise of market power at successive vertical layers in a supply chain.” The problem that arises as a result of DM is tied to an impetus to mark up the product’s price above marginal cost. The sequence of mark-ups “leads to a higher retail price and lower combined profit for the supply chain.” In short, DM drives the paradoxical outcome of higher buy prices with lower sell profits.

How does the complexity theory apply to business? (A Brief Dialogue)
| |
| Member Question:
Has anyone applied complexity theory to business in a practical way?
Asheville, U.S.
My Response:
The chaos theory and butterfly effect are interesting concepts in terms of the “complexity” of business.
Over a number of years and through funding from the Government of Canada’s Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) Program I developed a theory called strand commonality.
In the area of supply chain practice for example (although the term “chain” is a misnomer in that it implies a sequential architecture instead of the synchronized architecture that represents the dynamic characteristics of different stakeholders within the real-world), one seeks to understand the unique operating attributes of individual stakeholders using an agent-based model.

Don’t Hire a Web Developer to Build Your Website!
| |
| I was a meeting with a client recently and he mentioned that he was considering hiring a programmer from overseas to help complete a small web project. He felt it just made more sense financially. I asked him, “who will be doing the project management, design, information architecture and testing?”. He looked puzzled. “Can’t the web developer do all of this?”. |
