Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 11 Information Systems for Supporting Strategy: Doing Things Smarter Firms have a competitive strategy Information Systems should be implemented that support that strategy – Low cost strategy implies information systems to minimize expenses – High quality strategy implies information systems to support ensuring excellent quality and minimal defects

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 12 Sources of Competitive Advantage

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 13 Identifying Where to Compete: Analyzing Competitive Forces

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 14 Using IS to Combat Competitive Forces Table 2.2 Competitive ForceImplication for FirmPotential Use of Information Systems Rivals within your industry Competition in price, product distribution, and service Reduce costs, use the Internet to increase service New entrantsReduced prices and market share Inventory control to manage excess capacity, Internet to differentiate products Customers’ bargaining power Reduced prices, demand for better quality and service CRM to improve service, CAD/CAM Suppliers’ bargaining power Increased costs and reduced quality Use internet to work with new distant suppliers Threat of substitute products Decreased market share, customer loss Better assess customer needs, use CAD to design better products

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 15 Identifying How to Compete: Analyzing the Value Chain

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 16 The Technology/Strategy Fit There are never enough resources to implement every possible IS improvement There are usually never enough resources to implement every financially beneficial IS improvement Companies that focus on the improvements and business process changes that help their value creation strategy the most will see the greatest competitive benefit

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 17 Assessing Value for the IS Infrastructure Economic Value – Direct financial impact Architectural Value – Extending business capabilities today and in the future Operational Value – Enhancing ability to meet business requirements Regulatory and Compliance Value – Complying with regulatory requirements

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 18 Putting It All Together: Developing a Successful Business Model A business model reflects the following: 1.What does a company do? 2.How does a company uniquely do it? 3.In what way (or ways) does the company get paid for doing it? 4.What are the key resources and activities needed? 5.What are the costs involved?

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 26 The Need for Constant IS Innovation “The most important discoveries of the next 50 years are likely to be ones of which we cannot now even conceive” John Maddox Transformation Technologies are difficult or even impossible to see coming – Think of the Internet in 1999 – Many of the critical discoveries in the next 50 years will be in areas we don’t see coming

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 27 Successful Innovation Is Difficult Innovation Is Often Fleeting – The pace of change is fast – Smart rivals quickly adopt any advantage Innovation Is Often Risky – Competing Technologies result in a winner and a looser (e.g.: Blu-Ray and HD DVD) Innovation Choices Are Often Difficult – It is impossible to pursue all opportunities – It is hard to predict which opportunities will lead to success

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 28 Organizational Requirements for Innovation Process Requirements – Focus on success over other objectives Resource Requirements – Employees with knowledge, skill, time & resources – Partner with appropriate requirements Risk Tolerance Requirements – Tolerance for risk – Tolerance for failure

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 29 Predicting the Next New Thing Many innovations can be copied – Limited time span of any advantage – May become a requirement for staying competitive Some innovations deliver longer advantages – Unique customer service based on customer data – High levels of customer investment in proprietary systems – high switching costs – Technologies that are very difficult to copy

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 35 How Freeconomics Works

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 36 The Freeconomics Value Proposition Free doesn’t mean no profit – Google gives away search – Users give Google search results their attention This can include attention to sponsored links Google sells space for sponsored links – Advertisers pay Google for that attention to sponsored links Some users convert into customers Customers pay advertising firms for their products

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 37 Applying Freeconomics in the Digital World ApproachWhat it MeansExamples AdvertisingFree services are provided to customers & paid for by a third party ▪ Yahoo!’s banner ads ▪ Google’s pay-per-click FreemiumBasic services are free, a premium is charged for special features ▪ Skype ▪ Dropbox.com Cross subsidiesSale price of one item is reduced in order to sell something else of value ▪ Free cell phone with two- year contract Zero Marginal Cost Products are distributed to customers without an appreciable cost to anyone ▪ iTunes music distribution ▪ Software distribution ▪ YouTube Video content Labor ExchangeThe act of customers using free services creates value ▪ Yahoo! Answers ▪ Answers.com Gift EconomyPeople participate and collaborate to create value for Everyone ▪ Open source software ▪ Wikipedia

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 39 Managing in the Digital World: The Business of Merging “Groups” and “Coupons” Groupon created a new business model – Heavily discounted deals for grouped buyers – Advertising value for sellers Groupon’s business model is easily duplicated, and has been, repeatedly – Groupon does have a first mover head start – Groupon has purchased many competitors – However, Groupon has no sustainable competitive advantage as currently positioned

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 40 Brief Case: For Sale By Owner: Your Company’s Name.com Domain names can be purchased by anyone, whether they own the trademark for that name or not – Businesses have had to pay premium prices for their own trademarked names – Legislation to prevent Domain Squatting has stalled in congress – Some names are rented to businesses for lucrative amounts – Common misspellings now lead to advertising sites

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 41 When things go wrong: The Pains of Miscalculating Groupon Groupon sales are heavily discounted, and can cost companies more then they bring in – Groupon takes 40% of the discounted sale – Groupon sales unprofitable unless they grow the repeat business customer base – Some sales are one-time (eye laser surgery) – Businesses forget to cap the number of sales – A large number of unprofitable sales can lead to large losses for small companies

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 45 Ethical Dilemma: Underground Gaming Economy Virtual worlds have virtual economies with goods and currency (often virtual gold) – Players are now buying and selling virtual goods with real money – Some companies hire people to ‘farm gold’ which they sell Estimated 400,000 gold farmers world wide 90% in China, often work 12 hour days – Buying assets in a game creates advantages over players who can’t or won’t, changing the game – Some companies ban gold farmers for life to protect the integrity of the game for other players
