15.2 © 2010 by Prentice Hall LEARNING OBJECTIVES Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems Identify the major factors driving the internationalization of business. Compare strategies for developing global businesses. Demonstrate how information systems can support different global business strategies. Identify the challenges posed by global information systems and management solutions. Evaluate the issues and technical alternatives to be considered when developing international information systems.

15.3 © 2010 by Prentice Hall Severstal Creates an IT Infrastructure for Global Steelmaking Problem: Needed global production platform; existing infrastructure was a hodge-podge of different systems, platforms; data did not flow between systems Solutions: Standardized on Oracle E-Business Suite 12, an enterprise application with modules for multiple functions With integrated system, Severstal NA is able to optimize end-to-end processes instead of individual processes; to deliver higher quality and timelier reporting to parent company Illustrates digital technology being used by global firms adjusting their systems to support rapid growth in world trade Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems

15.4 © 2010 by Prentice Hall The Growth of International Information Systems Global economic system and global world order driven by advanced networks and information systems Growth of international trade has radically altered domestic economies around the globe For example, production of many high-end electronic products parceled out to multiple countries E.g., Hewlett-Packard laptop computer Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems

15.5 © 2010 by Prentice Hall An HP Laptop’s Path to Market Figure 15-1 Hewlett-Packard and other electronics companies assign distribution and production of high-end products to a number of different countries. Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems The Growth of International Information Systems

15.6 © 2010 by Prentice Hall Strategy when building international systems 1.Understand global environment Business drivers pushing your industry toward global competition Inhibitors creating management challenges 2.Develop corporate strategy for competition How firm should respond to global competition 3.Develop organization structure and division of labor Where will production, marketing, sales, etc., be located 4.Consider management issues Design of business procedures, reengineering, managing change 5.Consider technology platform Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems The Growth of International Information Systems

15.7 © 2010 by Prentice Hall International Information Systems Architecture Figure 15-2 The major dimensions for developing an international information systems architecture are the global environment, the corporate global strategies, the structure of the organization, the management and business processes, and the technology platform. Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems The Growth of International Information Systems

15.8 © 2010 by Prentice Hall Global business drivers: General cultural factors l ead toward internationalization and result in specific business globalization factors Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems GENERAL CULTURAL FACTORSSPECIFIC BUSINESS FACTORS Global communication and transportation technologies Development of global culture Emergence of global social norms Political stability Global knowledge base Global markets Global production and operations Global coordination Global workforce Global economies of scale The Growth of International Information Systems

15.9 © 2010 by Prentice Hall Challenges and obstacles to global business systems General cultural challenges Cultural particularism Regionalism, nationalism, language differences Social expectations: Brand-name expectations, work hours Political laws Transborder data flow Transborder data and privacy laws, commercial regulations Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems The Growth of International Information Systems

15.10 © 2010 by Prentice Hall Challenges and obstacles to global business systems (cont.) Specific challenges Standards Different EDI, , telecommunication standards Reliability Phone networks not uniformly reliable Speed Different data transfer speeds, many slower than U.S. Personnel Shortages of skilled consultants Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems The Growth of International Information Systems

15.11 © 2010 by Prentice Hall State of the art Most companies have inherited patchwork international systems using 1960s-era batch-oriented reporting, manual entry of data from one legacy system to another, and little online control and communication Significant difficulties in building appropriate international architectures Planning a system appropriate to firm’s global strategy Structuring organization of systems and business units Solving implementation issues Choosing right technical platform Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems The Growth of International Information Systems

15.12 © 2010 by Prentice Hall Organizing International Information Systems Global strategies and business organization Three main kinds of organizational structure Centralized: In the home country Decentralized/dispersed: To local foreign units Coordinated: All units participate as equals Four main global strategies Domestic exporter Multinational Franchisers Transnational Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems

15.14 © 2010 by Prentice Hall Global systems to fit the strategy Configuration, management, and development of systems tend to follow global strategy chosen Four main types of systems configuration Centralized: Systems development and operation occur totally at domestic home base Duplicated: Development occurs at home base but operations are handed over to autonomous units in foreign locations Decentralized: Each foreign unit designs own solutions and systems Networked: Development and operations occur in coordinated fashion across all units Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems Organizing International Information Systems

15.15 © 2010 by Prentice Hall Global Strategy and Systems Configurations Figure 15-3 The large Xs show the dominant patterns, and the small Xs show the emerging patterns. For instance, domestic exporters rely predominantly on centralized systems, but there is continual pressure and some development of decentralized systems in local marketing regions. Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems Organizing International Information Systems

15.16 © 2010 by Prentice Hall To develop a global company and information systems support structure: 1.Organize value-adding activities along lines of comparative advantage E.g., Locate functions where they can best be performed, for least cost and maximum impact 2.Develop and operate systems units at each level of corporate activity—regional, national, and international 3.Establish at world headquarters: Single office responsible for development of international systems Global CIO position Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems Organizing International Information Systems

15.17 © 2010 by Prentice Hall Managing Global Systems Principle management challenges in developing global systems Agreeing on common user requirements Introducing changes in business processes Coordinating application development Coordinating software releases Encouraging local users to support global systems Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems

15.18 © 2010 by Prentice Hall Typical scenario: Disorganization on a global scale Traditional multinational consumer-goods company based in U.S. and operating in Europe would like to expand into Asian markets World headquarters and strategic management in U.S. Only centrally coordinated system is financial controls and reporting Separate regional, national production and marketing centers Foreign divisions have separate IT systems systems are incompatible Each production facility uses different ERP system, different hardware and database platforms, etc. Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems Managing Global Systems

15.19 © 2010 by Prentice Hall Global systems strategy Share only core systems Core systems support functionality critical to firm Partially coordinate systems that share some key elements Do not have to be totally common across national boundaries Local variation desirable Peripheral systems Need to suit local requirements only Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems Managing Global Systems

15.20 © 2010 by Prentice Hall Local, Regional, and Global Systems Figure 15-4 Agency and other coordination costs increase as the firm moves from local option systems toward regional and global systems. However, transaction costs of participating in global markets probably decrease as firms develop global systems. A sensible strategy is to reduce agency costs by developing only a few core global systems that are vital for global operations, leaving other systems in the hands of regional and local units.

15.21 © 2010 by Prentice Hall 1.Define core business processes 2.Identify core systems to coordinate centrally 3.Choose an approach Piecemeal and grand design approaches tend to fail Evolve transnational applications incrementally from existing applications 4.Make benefits clear Global flexibility Gains in efficiency Global markets and larger customer base unleash new economies of scale at production facilities Optimizing corporate funds over much larger capital base Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems Managing Global Systems

15.22 © 2010 by Prentice Hall The management solution Agreeing on common user requirements Short list of core business processes Develop common language, understanding of common elements and unique local qualities Introducing changes in business processes Success depends on legitimacy, authority, ability to involve users in change design process Coordinating applications development Coordinate change through incremental steps Reduce set of transnational systems to bare minimum Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems Managing Global Systems

15.23 © 2010 by Prentice Hall The management solution (cont.) Coordinating software releases Institute procedures to ensure all operating units update at same time Encouraging local users to support global systems Cooptation: Bringing the opposition into design and implementation process without giving up control over direction and nature of the change Permit each country unit to develop one transnational application Develop new transnational centers of excellence Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems Managing Global Systems

15.24 © 2010 by Prentice Hall Read the Interactive Session: Management, and then discuss the following questions: Why was the traditional method of allocating IT resources to profits no longer effective? Why is it important for central U.S. management to understand the global disposition of IT personnel and funds? Which of the four global business strategies described in this chapter is Colgate pursuing, and how has this affected its selection of an IT resource management system? What elements of “The Management Solution,” described in this chapter, are mentioned in the case study? What elements are missing?

15.28 © 2010 by Prentice Hall Read the Interactive Session: Organizations, and then discuss the following questions: What strategies are cell phone companies using to “close the digital divide” and market phones to the poorest segment of the world’s population? Why do economists predict that widespread cell phone usage in developing countries would have an unprecedented effect on the growth of those countries? What are some examples of how cell phones might increase quality of life for residents of developing countries? Do you believe that cell phones will proliferate widely through Africa and Asia? Why? Can Cell Phones Close the Global Digital Divide? Management Information Systems Chapter 15 Managing Global Systems Technology Issues and Opportunities for Global Value Chains
