Public Sector Procurement Practice and the Principles of External Economies, Clustering and the Global Value Chain
| |
| Can the public sector effectively apply the principles of External Economies to its procurement practice?
“External economies of scale (ES) occur outside of a firm, within an industry. Thus, when an industry’s scope of operations expands due to, for example, the creation of a better transportation network, resulting in a subsequent decrease in costs for a company working within that industry, external economies of scale are said to have been achieved. With external ES, all firms within the industry will benefit.” (What Are Economies of Scale? By Reem Heakal, January 2003)

How to Determine Your Business Success with Financial Ratio
| |
| If you’ve ever wondered how well your business is doing - truly doing - one way to clear up the mystery is to use financial ratios. Financial ratios are used by accountants and bankers to evaluate everything from your current income ratio, to debts, to inventory, and even your return on sales or capital investments.
