1 IDS542 / MGTO 582 Business Models

2 Business “Process” Models: Mapping the Supply Side
Telling a good story Part of selling your strategy / investment Tying Narrative to Numbers Strategy becomes less philosophy More performance and outcome When business models don’t work It’s because the fail either The ‘Narrative’ test Or the ‘Story’ test

3 A business model is not strategy
It doesn’t describe external forces: Competition Environment Scaling It only depicts the systems that will be put into place to achieve a strategic objective A good model is not enough The boxes on the value map need to be understood in depth In order to develop a good strategy

4 Graphing the Value Map External competitive environment (supply & demand curves) Internal strategies, competencies, knowledge, assets ‘owned’ Value flows between owners and/or the external environment

5 The Context of Business Models

6 Value and Structure in Business Models the Use the Internet

7 Value Chain Integrator Uses both Electronic and Logistic Networks

8 Aggregator (e-Tailor)

9 Agora & Alliance Prosu mer Value Space

10 Strategies Updating Business Models over Time

11 Evolution of ‘Strategy’

12 Capabilities A firm’s assets and competences together For example,
Make up its capabilities For example, Intel Capabilities = integrated circuit design & semiconductor manufacturing Assets = patents, copyrights, installed base of PC’s (Intel inside), reputation, scientific expertise Competences = protection of intellectual property, fast product time to market, compatibility of new products with prior genrations

13 The Value Map Firms create that deliver low-cost or differentiated products By performing the activities Of their value configuration (i.e., value chain, value network, value shop, profit chain) To perform these activities A firm needs resources (assets): Manpower, money, machines, methods, materials Plants, equipment, patents, scientists, brand name recognition, geographic location, client relations, distribution channels, trade secrets

14 Value Map = The Resource Based View of Strategy

15 Framing the Challenge Establish what your business needs to do to make innovation worthwhile What do we mean by ‘needs to do’? What do we mean by ‘worthwhile’? This is what will drive the Business Model

16 Vision, Milestones and Benchmarks
If I were to do something in the next 3-5 years That my company’s stakeholders would regard as a major win What would this performance record have to look like? That my customers would regard as a major (disruptive) innovation How would I change their lives? How would my relation with customers affect my performance? “Vision” defines direction and ultimate goals “Milestones” are points in time at which sub-goals need to be achieved “Benchmarks” allow your speed, execution and quality to be compared to competitors

17 Trade-offs: Markets and Capabilities
You best (perhaps your only) opportunities to compete are Where Product Market Needs Cross with Competences

18 An Example of a Successful Business Model Mad Catz, Inc.

19 Mad Catz Creative Tension: Design vs. Competences
Core Competences are the things that the firm does That they do better than other firms That are the source of their competitive advantage They are not necessarily what the customer wants (!!) Firms establish their core competences by: Investing in people Investing in assets, plant and land Identifying and focusing their mission How do you reconcile Mad Catz design and business model with their competences?

20 Mad Catz’s Products Controllers, Joysticks, memory chips, cables, power supplies, etc. Anything you could add onto a game console Question: How do you make money on this market?

21 Mad Catz’ Business Model (Value Map)

22 Points to Note about Mad Catz’s Business Model
Sources of costs and revenues are different Cycle time influences revenue The product is 100% ‘human interface’ Visual Mental Tactile Their market is driven by other vendors What does this imply about market and growth strategies Many components of this case are typical of Pearl River Delta companies

23 Mad Catz By outsourcing much of its production, and coordinating the entire production process Mad Catz Controlled its profitability by being a Value Chain Integrator It was looking for new opportunities to Control costs Speed up time to market Improve quality By innovations in both logistics and information networks

24 Mad Catz: Take Aways Look for cost – revenue spreads in the Business Model Cut costs where revenues are small Spend more if you can influence revenues with small additional cost Cycle time influences revenue Look for possibilities for ‘Geographical Scaling’ Through improvements in Information and Logistics networks

25 Mad Catz: Take Aways Market is driven by other vendors (not by your decisions) Bet that Sony and Microsoft will be leaders, and pander to them Consider game specific software for powerful software companies like EA E.g., branded controllers

26 Mad Catz: Take Aways Because the product is 100% ‘human interface’
Consider the costs and benefits of professional industrial design What is Industrial Design?
