Combined Analysis
• The value chain and SWOT can be combined in different ways.
• The value chain analyses the business’s internal environment so it can be used in place of the strengths and weakness portion of the SWOT.
• Most often, the value chain is used in conjunction with SWOT, creating a comprehensive business analysis that incorporates both internal and external evaluation.
Core competence
Competencies vs. Core Competenciesvs. Distinctive Competencies
• A company competence is the product of organizational learning and experience and represents real proficiency in performing an internal activity
• A core competence is a well-performed internal activity that is central (not peripheral or incidental) to a company’s competitiveness and profitability
• A distinctive competence is a competitively valuable activity that a company performs better than its rivals
Company Competencies and Capabilities
• Stem from skills, expertise, and experience usually representing an– Accumulation of learning over time and– Gradual buildup of real proficiency in
performing an activity• Involve deliberate efforts to develop the ability to do
something, often entailing– Selection of people with requisite knowledge and expertise– Upgrading or expanding individual abilities – Molding work products of individuals into a cooperative
effort to create organizational ability– A conscious effort to create intellectual capital
Core Competencies: AValuable Company Resource
• A competence becomes a core competence when the well-performed activity is central to the company’s competitiveness and profitability
• Often, a core competence results from collaboration among different parts of an organization
• Typically, core competencies reside in a company’s people, not in assets on the balance sheet
• A core competence gives a company a potentially valuable competitive capability and represents a definite competitive asset
Types of Core Competencies• Expertise in building networks and systems to enable e-
commerce• Speeding new/next-generation products to market• Better after-sale service capability• Skills in manufacturing a high quality product• Innovativeness in developing popular product features• Speed/agility in responding to new market trends• System to fill customer orders accurately and swiftly• Expertise in integrating multiple technologies to create
families of new products
Distinctive Competence -- ACompetitively Superior Resource
# 1
• A distinctive competence is a competitively significant activity that a company performs better than its competitors
A distinctive competence Represents a competitively valuable
capability rivals do not have Presents attractive potential for
being a cornerstone of strategyCan provide a competitive edge in the marketplace
—because it represents a competitively superior resource strength
Strategic Management Principle
A distinctive competence
empowers a company to build
competitive advantage!
Examples: Distinctive Competencies • Sharp Corporation
– Expertise in flat-panel display technology • Toyota, Honda, Nissan
– Low-cost, high-quality manufacturing capability and short design-to-market cycles
• Intel– Ability to design and manufacture ever more
powerful microprocessors for PCs• Motorola
– Defect-free manufacture (six-sigma quality) of cell phones
Determining the CompetitiveValue of a Company Resource
• To qualify as the basis for sustainable competitive advantage, a “resource” must pass 4 tests
1. Is the resource hard to copy ?2. Does the resource have staying power -- is it
durable ?3. Is the resource really competitively superior ?4. Can the resource be trumped by the different
capabilities of rivals ?
Strategic Management Principle
Successful strategists seek to capitalize on and leverage a company’s resource strengths—its expertise, core competencies, and strongest competitive capabilities—by molding the strategy around the resource strengths !
VALUE CHAIN
• Value Chain • Competitive Advantage• Value Proposition • Value Curve
The Relationship Between SWOT and Value Chain
• In many cases, the SWOT method is an inadequate analysis of the internal business environment.
• Simply stating strengths and weakness gives a brief explanation of what the company does best and where there’s room for improvement, but the SWOT leaves out many of the details of the company’s operations.
• The value chain fills in some of the internal analysis gaps that SWOT leaves.
• Conversely, value chain analysis virtually ignores the external environment by examining only the needs and desires of customers.
• In many ways, SWOT analysis and the value chain give a more complete picture of the business environment when used together.

NETWORK VALUE CHAIN
VALUE CHAIN• Value chain captures the discrete activities a firm
performs in designing, producing, marketing and distributing its product.
• A tool to analyze competitive advantage: • How each activity is performed combined with its
economics will determine whether a firm is high or low cost relative to competitors.
• How each value activity is performed will also determine its contribution to buyer needs and hence differentiation.

“A process can be seen as a ‘value chain’. By its contribution to the creation or delivery of a product or service, each step in a process should add value to the preceding steps.”
Rummler and Brache, Improving Performance
The Value Chain System for an Entire Industry
• Assessing a company’s cost competitiveness involves comparing costs all along the industry’s value chain
• Suppliers’ value chains are relevant because– Costs, quality, and performance of inputs provided by
suppliers influence a firm’s own costs and product performance
• Forward channel allies’ value chains are relevant because
– Forward channel allies’ costs and margins are part of price paid by ultimate end-user
– Activities performed affect end-user satisfaction

Competitive advantage
LOW-COST AND DIFFERENTIATION
• There are two basic types of competitive advantage• Low-cost• Differentiation.• Three generic strategies• Cost leadership• Differentiation,• Focus (cost and differentiation in a narrow segment).
The learning organization, the path to Sustainable competitive advantage
• Knowledge is the key differentiators • Leveraging implicit knowledge • Process needs and optimized • Resources need to synergized
FOR SUSTAINABLE COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE, A RESOURCE MUST HAVE FOUR ATTRIBUTES
• It must be valuable, in the sense that it exploits opportunities and/or neutralizes threats in a firm's environment.
• It must be rare among a firm's current and potential competition.
• It must be imperfectly imitable.• Finally, there cannot be strategically equivalent
substitutes for this resource that are valuable but neither rare or imperfectly imitable.
PORTERS FIVE FORCE MODEL
Comparing the value chains• Comparing the value chains of competitors exposes
differences that determine competitive advantage.• Not only the activities themselves, but also how they interact
can be determinant. • These "linkages" are complex but when recognized and well
managed, they can create a differentiation advantage.• By selecting the appropriate strategy built on a creative value
chain to favor its competitive position within the industry and by creating mobility barriers, a firm could sustain above-average
Benchmarking Costs of Key Value Chain Activities
• Focuses on cross-company comparisons of how certain activities are performed and the costs associated with these activities
• Purchase of materials• Payment of suppliers• Management of inventories• Training of employees• Processing of payrolls• Getting new products to market• Performance of quality control• Filling and shipping of customer orders
Objectives of Benchmarking• Determine whether a company is performing particular value
chain activities efficiently by studying the practices and procedures used by other companies
• Understand the best practices in performing an activity—learn what is the “best” way to do a particular activity from those who have demonstrated they are “best-in-industry” or “best-in-world”
• Assess if company’s costs of performing particular value chain activities are in line with competitors
• Learn how other firms achieve lower costs• Take action to improve company’s cost competitiveness
What Determines Whether aCompany is Cost Competitive?
• A company’s cost competitiveness depends on how well it manages its value chain relative to how well competitors manage their value chains
• When a company’s costs are “out-of-line”, the “high- cost” activities can exist in any of three areas in the industry value chain
1. Suppliers’ activities 2. The company’s own internal activities 3. Forward channel activities

Buyer/UserValueChains
From Value Chain Analysisto Competitive Advantage
• A company can create competitive advantage by managing its value chain to
– Integrate knowledge and skills of employees in competitively valuable ways
– Leverage economies of learning / experience– Coordinate related activities in ways
that build valuable capabilities– Build dominating expertise in a value chain activity
critical to customer satisfaction or market success
How Strong is the Company’s Competitive Position?
• The strength of a company’s competitive position in the marketplace hinges on
• Whether firm’s position can be expected to improve or deteriorate if present strategy is continued
• How firm ranks relative to key rivals on each industry KSF and relevant measure of competitive strength
• Whether firm has a sustainable competitive advantage or finds itself at disadvantage relative to certain rivals
• Ability of firm to defend its position in light of• Industry driving forces• Competitive pressures• Anticipated moves of rivals
Assessing a Company’s Competitive Strength versus Key Rivals
1. List industry key success factors and other relevant measures of competitive strength
2. Rate firm and key rivals on each factor using rating scale of 1 to 10 (1 = very weak; 5 = average; 10 = very strong)
3. Decide whether to use a weighted or unweighted rating system (a weighted system is usually superior because the chosen strength measures are unlikely to be equally important)
4. Sum individual ratings to get an overall measure of competitive strength for each rival
5. Determine whether firm enjoys a competitive advantage or suffers from a competitive disadvantage based on the overall strength ratings

Competitive Strength Assessment
WEIGHTED
Why Do a CompetitiveStrength Assessment ?
• Reveals strength of firm’s competitive position vis-à-vis key rivals
• Shows how firm stacks up against rivals, measure-by-measure—pinpoints firm’s competitive strengths and competitive weaknesses
• Indicates whether firm is at a competitive advantage / disadvantage against each rival
• Identifies possible offensive attacks (pit company strengths against rivals’ weaknesses)
• Identifies possible defensive actions (a need to correct competitive weaknesses)
Identifying the Strategic Issues• Is the present strategy adequate in light of
competitive pressures and driving forces?• Is the strategy well-matched to the industry’s future
key success factors? • Does the company need new or different resource
strengths and competitive capabilities?• Does present strategy adequately protect against
external threats and resource deficiencies?• Is firm vulnerable to competitive attack by rivals?• Where are strong/weak spots in present strategy?
Value proposition
SO… WHAT IS A VALUE PROPOSITION?
• Part of a firm’s business model• An element of strategy• A reflection of the value a firm offers its customers• And finally… A carefully crafted marketing message
– Communicates a clear point of differentiation– Is highly persuasive– Supports lead generation and sales– And more…
A VALUE PROPOSITION IS…
DEFINITION - VALUE PROPOSITION
• A value proposition describes why a customer should buy a product or service
• It targets a well defined customer segment • It convinces prospective customers that a
particular product or service will add more value or better solve a problem than competitive products or services
MICHAEL PORTER’S MODEL
A value proposition answers three questions:
Which customer
s?
Which needs?
What relativeprice?
WHAT END USERS AND CHANNELS?
WHICH PRODUCTS, SERVICES, FEATURES?
PREMIUM OR DISCOUNT?
147
For: List target customers or beneficiaries. Group them and ultimately define THE customer or beneficiary.
Who: Define the need or opportunity. What is critical issue?
The: Name your product, service or concept. Place the product, service, or concept into a generally understood category
That: Quantify the benefits of the product, service, or concept. Identify the single most compelling benefit
Unlike: List the competitors and competitive alternatives –
Our: Differentiate the product, service, or concept. Set it apart from the competition.
Creating your Value Proposition
Asserts the VALUE of the
offering
POSITIONS the value
What is the value proposition of the following companies
• Priyagold • Haldirams • Futures group • Flipkart• Micromax• Dr Lal PathLabs• Ghari chaap detergent • Hanung Toys & Textiles Limited• Kajaria Ceramics Limited
Visualising value propositions
• The concept of a Value Curve is to use a diagram to compare products on a range of factors by rating them on a scale from low to high.
• These can be features, benefits or ways in which a product is distributed or consumed.
• The combination of these various factors defines the product or service.
• Multiple Value Curves allow a visual comparison with competitive products and to unearth possible spaces or gaps in the market.
• By investigating the feasibility of these gaps .• It may be possible to identify changes to the product that
significantly alter the value proposition.
Value Curve Case Study : ING Direct
• ING is a global financial institution.• ING Direct is a sub-brand that covers consumer banking
products – the “Direct” refers to the direct-to-consumer aspect of the products.
• ING Direct started off with savings accounts – no branches, no ATM network, no peripheral products.
• This light model meant that ING had lower fixed and operational costs and combined with its clout in financial markets, it was able to offer interest rates significantly higher than that of competitors and do so with no account keeping fees.
• To start with, we put together a simple chart as shown below. On the y-axis we have a spectrum that ranges from “low” to “high”.
• On the x-axis we record a number of features or elements that define the product: the interest rate offered access to funds, channels for interaction and of course, fees.
• We show the ING Direct Savings Maximiser account in green• Traditional bank savings account in blue (the type where
funds are locked in for x number of months or years) • Current account in red where salary gets paid into and
from which funds can be accessed.
COMPARISON
Value Curve ING Direct• Looking at the Value Curve, it’s very obvious that the ING Direct offering differs greatly to its rivals.
By cutting out costly traditional elements such as a branch network, ATMs and additional banking products it is able to keep its business model simple and its costs down.
• It provides a stripped back interest bearing account with a higher rate of interest than rivals, and it does so with no fees. Note, on a Value Curve price is inverted – a “high” value means a great price – which is zero! A “low” value means a higher price. This inversion sometimes seems counter-intuitive, but think of it from the customer’s perspective – what price would make you happy?
• The rival savings account (in blue) also offers high interest rates, but these require the customer to commit funds for a period of time and so they have a low value in terms of access to funds and don’t really take advantage of the branch and ATM network.
• The competing current accounts are more accessible, but provide low interest rates and are also the most expensive accounts typically incurring monthly fees.
• Of course, ING Direct’s service isn’t for everyone. It’s reliance on internet and telephone access meant that in the early days it missed out on the less technically savvy consumer out there. But it has developed its product with particular individuals in mind and has gone from strength-to-strength as customers become more au fait with online banking. It has continued to refine the product over time with features such as bonus interest and recurring instalments. Its entire marketing message resonates with an audience that wants simple, fee-free, high interest offering.
Raise Reduce Create Eliminate • You’ve made the curve, now what?• Whether you are working on a new product development or you are refining an existing
product, Chan and Maugborne suggested four ways to alter a product based on Value Curve analysis. These are:
• Raise: Can any existing elements be enhanced or increased? ING Direct’s primary focus is on maximising the interest rate it offers to customers.
• Reduce: on the flip-side, are there any elements that can be reduced? These may be features that are of little value relative to their cost. With no branch network, ING Direct has a slightly reduced access to account compared to a current account – but the types of customers it caters for do not value a branch network highly for this product.
• Create: is there anything that can be introduced that to date has not been available within the market? A new feature that makes the product more effective in solving the customer’s problem. ING Direct introduced the ability for a portion of a regular salary to be automatically paid into the savings account.
• Eliminate: are there any elements to the product that add no real value to customers but are simply there as part of a status-quo. It’s perhaps very obvious that customers dislike monthly fees, but most banks need to charge these to cover their costs. However ING Direct was able to eliminate bank fees by cutting out costly elements such as a branch infrastructure.
Putting the Value Curve into practice
• Product must be both relevant and compelling for customers, and should be distinct from competitors in attributes that they value.
• Putting the Value Curve into practice• The Value Curve is sometimes criticised as simplistic, academic and
overlooking of less tangible factors (brand personality and so on). There’s also a risk to assuming that all customers want the same thing – as noted, there are multiple segments in any market. The inverting required when showing price can also cause confusion.
• That said, it’s an easy-to-use tool that pretty much anyone can understand just by looking at. If your product’s Value Curve closely follows that of your rivals, you will likely have a tough time differentiating it. Spend a bit of extra time identifying what values your target customers value most and you may be able to tweak your product (cut a little bit of this, add a little bit of that) and you will become more relevant and compelling.

MUMBAI PUNE INTERCITY EXPRESS
Expressindia » Cities » StoryShatabdi sulks as Expressway edges it outExpress News Service
Pune on the inaugural run of the Shatabdi Express a few years ago, amidst celebrations, it was to herald a new status symbol for the upper crust Pune-Mumbai travellers… promising to overpower the agonising road travel on the Pune-Mumbai NH4 and avoiding the inconvenience of air travel. The entirely air-conditioned Pune-Mumbai Shatabdi Express, the plush inter-city superfast day train was aimed at tapping professionals, high profile executives…,
Jinxed from the very beginning, the highly priced Shatabdi, could not garner enough patrons… Also, it apparently hampered some of the morning local train timings in Mumbai. .. Subsequently instead of leaving Pune in the morning and returning in the evening, it leaves Mumbai in the morning and arrives in Pune in the evening. The logic of this reversed role, was that, thanks to Pune being ear-marked as a potential Information Technology (IT) centre, many Mumbai professionals would be interested in visiting Pune for official work during the day and it would be also convenient for the race-goers during the Pune racing season.
However, its ultimate road to disaster seems to be the Pune-Mumbai Expressway, which was built at super speed and is now superseding the Shatabdi Express in terms of quick travel and time convenience. Several professionals and businessmen from both the cities have clearly disbanded the idea of travelling by this train for that matter, ever since the entire 92 km stretch has been opened to the public. Convenience they say, has come to the doorstep, since they do not have to abide by train arrival and departure timings
July 8, 2002
While other Pune-Mumbai trains have not faced the adverse fall-out after the birth of the expressway, it is the Shatabdi that has had to bear the maximum impact since the passenger profile comprised those who had the luxury of a personal car but could not steer it out, due to inconvenient road journey. Now, it is a mere two and a half to three hours of grand and smooth sailing journey between the two cities by road.
No wonder, the expressway has overpowered the Shatabdi as regards timings as well as convenience. Looks like, the alarming rate of mishaps and lately even organised robberies on the expressway have not proved to be deterrent for the commuters.
With the Shatabdi going just 30 per cent full since the last few months, the railway authorities have been compelled to salvage this white elephant, by making it more economically viable… Railway authorities have been reported to have stated that it should be converted into a ‘Janshatabdi’ like the Deccan Queen with AC chair cars as well as second class compartments. However, experts feel, it will become viable if the origin of journey is again reversed, that is, the train should leave Pune in the morning and come back in the evening, since the passenger traffic towards Mumbai is still very high in the mornings and not vice versa.
Railway authorities are also contemplating extending the train upto Solapur. However, experts say that, Solapur is mere administrative convenience since Solapur division falls under the central railways, and not passenger convenience…

Good news for Shatabdi commuters
TNN Mar 4, 2004, 01.47am IST
PUNE: Commuters have welcomed the Central Railway (CR) decision to introduce the Mumbai-Pune superfast intercity express in place of the Mumbai-Pune Shatabdi express.
Started in 1995, the Shatabdi had seen a very low passenger response due to its steep fares. The fares for the new train will be substantially lower.
The Mumbai-Pune superfast intercity express will have 12 coaches, including nine second-class coaches and an AC chair car. The service will commence March 15 and the timings of the train will remain the same — from Pune to Mumbai at 6 pm and from Mumbai to Pune at 6.50 am.
CR spokesman Suhas Lohakare said the decision was taken because of the low passenger response to the earlier air-conditioned train. "The train will be convenient for commuters as the journey will take only around three-and-a half hours," he said.

THE WORLD IS FLAT FOR ONLINE MARKETS
Insights Defined
• “Insights are short statements based on a deep understanding of consumer attitudes and beliefs.”
• “Insights are unknown or overlooked knowledge about consumer behaviour and attitudes.”
• “Good insights are short statements that reflect a deep and clear understanding about consumers using words that a consumer would use.”
• “A great insight is a “deep discovery” about our consumer that can be leveraged to change behaviour or to grow a business.”
• “Good insights help to establish a connection between brands and consumers in fresh new ways.”
• “A great insight often gets the reaction - thank goodness, somebody finally understands me”.
•
How Do I Get Insights?
• 1. Know what you are looking for – understand and be clear what insights are and what they are not. Use and agree on good examples with support from market research professionals.
• 2. Define the focus for "insight mining" – decide what you are looking for and agree the areas of strategic interest and focus e.g. attitudes of 18-34 year olds to sun protection when they are on their beach holiday.
• 3. Get help from market research professionals – this doesn’t mean that you can’t look for insights yourself, but use professionals to guide and help you.
• 4. Use different tools – there are many ways to find new insights. For example, consumer observation in homes, accompanied shopping trips, focus group observations, one-on-one meetings, reading relevant consumer magazines, visiting on-line chat rooms, talking to trend experts, talking to category experts, re-reading market research reports with fresh eyes etc.
• 5. Get closer to your consumers – meet them and get close to your target audience; observe and understand the choices that they are making and not making. Try not to hide behind focus group mirrors!
• 6. Read between the lines – you are probably sitting on lots of insights from old market research reports. Read them again and read between the lines and ask why why why? Challenge and come up with your own theories that you can then test and explore.
• 7. Look below the surface – avoid taking the first answer your hear from a consumer as gospel. There are often big differences between what people say and what they actually do. Try and dig deeper and understand why a consumer makes the choices they do.
• 8. Explore the differences – look for differences and contradictions between one research report and another. Explore differences between different consumer behaviors. Have a challenging and questioning mind on your insight journey.
• 9. Look for quantity – once you get started, brainstorm potential new insights in a specific area and don’t judge your efforts too quickly…our experience indicates that you need to generate and write 20 potential insights to produce 2 or 3 that are really meaningful.
• 10. Keep discovering – finding insights doesn’t stop, so keep looking. Have a regular program in place to find new insights and give yourself time at the start of the innovation cycle to do this work. Consider using on-line tools to help your team capture and database new insights on a regular basis.

• “A unique value proposition compared to competitors” - While this may sound trivial, it really isn’t. Many businesses simply try to be better than their competition, which typically results in products and services that are similar in nature. In consequence, differentiation strategies tend to be built on price alone. What really counts is to be different!
“A distinctive value chain embodying choices about how the organization will operate differently to deliver on its value proposition“ – To illustrate this point, he mentioned Nespresso as a good example: Nespresso's strategy is to offer uniquely high quality, easy-to-prepare single-serve espresso coffee at a premium price. It appeals to a consumers that want to feel good and special about themselves and intentionally discriminates convenience-sensitive consumers. Nespresso sets itself apart from other coffee brands along the entire value chain: From the large variety of available flavors to the use of individual proportioned capsules which are tailored to espresso machines manufactured by high-end machine vendors to the choice of sales channels: Capsules are sold only online or through exclusive boutique shops in major cities. Focused image-oriented media advertising completes the harmonious concept.
“Making clear tradeoffs, and choosing what not to do“ – Trade-offs occur when activities are incompatible because more of one thing necessitates less of another thing. Tradeoffs create the need to make a choice and are necessary to make a strategy sustainable against imitation by established rivals. IKEA provides a good examples of how making a clear choice and sticking with it can lead to success. For more than 60 years, the Swedish company serves customers who are happy to trade off service for cost. While they get furniture at a low price, they cannot customize designs, need to find the items they want to purchase themselves in large on-site warehouses, and need to assemble the furniture themselves.
“Activity choices across the value chain that fit together and reinforce each other“ – Porter argues that competitive advantage and sustainability does not grow out of a single activity, rather it is the result of an entire system of activities. All activities along the value chain need to be consistent and reinforce each other to lead to optimal outcomes. “Fit is leveraging what is different to be more different,” he says.
“Continuity of strategic direction” – Strategic continuity is essential to creating and sustaining competitive advantage. Important prerequisites for achieving continuity are the understanding of the strategy throughout the organization, the development of truly unique skills and assets related to the strategy, and the establishing of a clear identity with customers and other stakeholders. „Reinvention and frequent shifts in direction are costly and confuse the customer, the industry, and the organization,“ Porter is convinced. Instead, he advises businesses to “maintain continuity in the value proposition, but continuously improve how to realize it.” - See more at: http://www.solyp.com/en/news-and-alerts/blog/item/691-what-makes-a-strategy-successful-porter.html#sthash.whF1s4Ni.dpuf

How to Plot your value network
• Identify the position of your product, service or idea in the network;
• Identify where value is created• plot the value-creating relationships between the members by linking them –
look at your relationships with your suppliers, partners and customers; your partners’ relationships; your customers’ relationships;
• Identify all kinds of value: from commercial relationships to exchanges of knowledge and information, support, feedback, favours, etc.
VALUE PROPOSITION
• Provide Framework - Companies are able to describe the potential impact of their product or solution within a customer environment. An easy way to think of this is to ask yourself, 'What is the direct revenue enhancing, cost reducing, and strategic business benefits associated with your offering?' Providing customers with a business value framework is an effective way to capture attention and interest in moving to the next level.
• Predict Value - Your sales organization works with the customer to model the potential business impact and return on investment (ROI). This vastly reduces decision making time and helps generate a budget. With a compelling ROI, how can a competent decision maker not purchase from you knowing they are leaving money on the table?
• Deliver Value - Measure the previously forecasted business impact, identify where value is missing, and swiftly take corrective action. This is a powerful way to build customer loyalty and drive associated services and add-on sales opportunities.
• Share Value - Enter into shared risk, reward and gain arrangements. Most companies ultimately want to do business at this level when they are confident of the value being delivered to their customers, and want to maximize the amount of money earned from any client. However, you can think of these levels as 'stairs.' Take one step at a time when evolving your business value proposition, and don’t jump ahead until you’ve successfully mastered the previous levels.
• Flipkart which made online shopping popular in the country by letting customers pay in cash when they received in hand goods ordered online
• “choose my company, and we will meet your needs, solve your problem, or get you results in ways x y and z.”
• The word “value” refers to the intrinsic value your product or service offers to a specific market segment.
• VP is a persuasive argument for why your product or service is a must-have.
Components of Value Proposition• Market• Value propositions that relate to the organisation’s market or competitive situation, new product or
service introduction as well as the organisation’s marketing efforts such as awareness, public relations or image.
• Income• Value proposition that proposes to increase or sustain existing revenue. In addition new revenue
streams fall into this category.• Time• Value proposition that reduces the time it takes to achieve some organisational objective. • Institutional• Value propositions that deliver value to shareholders. • Cost• Value proposition leading to reduction in costs• Operational• Value propositions that deliver positive changes to the operational efficiency of the organisation• Risk• Value proposition that mitigates risk at a corporate, personal or project level
• Having a compelling value proposition, and then successfully delivering on that promise, is not just a 'nice to have' - it's the price of admission.
• Companies are constantly vying for decision makers' attention and the opportunity to sell their products or solutions. Unfortunately, once given the chance, many lose sales by failing to adequately communicate the business value in a way that compels a decision maker to act.
• While many sales and marketing staff tend to think of their value proposition in terms of discrete 'features,' 'functions' and 'benefits,' business decision makers often think in a completely different way.
• This means that in order to close more sales, you need to build a 'business' perspective in your value proposition.
• In an increasingly competitive environment, product managers face the challenge of finding ways to differentiate their products and services.
• Furthermore, as markets evolve over time, they split into multiple segments and it can be difficult to determine which factors are of most importance to customers.

• The process of knowledge acquisition by an organization is intertwined with the content of organizational knowledge.
• Technical systems (e.g. data base and decision rules which accumulate, structure and codify knowledge), managerial systems (which are required for creating (e.g. through structuring of networks) and controlling (e.g. through incentive systems) knowledge and individual learning within an organization are closely intertwined.
• Based on this approach, it has been proposed that the theory on resources and the theory on learning (developed in relative isolation) be combined.
• A list of propositions synthesizing both approaches has been developed
• the two sources of firm heterogeneity (resources and mental models) are interrelated" which provides a new 'conceptual lens' for what [is meant by] 'managing'… Resource-based theory can provide the resource criteria for a sustainable competitive advantage, whereas organizational learning theory can show precisely how learning processes to utilize resources may be carried out.
• Resource-based theory may be strengthened by adding behavioral and cognitive decision-making biases and organizational implementation aspects as further impediments to imitation of a firm's resources and capabilities.

Ecosystem analysis to think about Why do this exercise?
Cooperation with other players in the industry; How to overcome a possible weak position in a value chain through
cooperation and pooled resources with other members; Probable consequences for your business model; Partnerships that generate a “pull effect” on your customer base.
Why will this be useful?
• By identifying mutually beneficial (symbiotic) transactions and relationships, a value network approach may allow a start-up to overcome or work around barriers in the industry value chain that might otherwise be an impediment to the firm’s viability.
• Consequently, a value network may reveal ways that you can tap into competencies of other value providers and increase value for all parties, rather than giving most of the value to one powerful member of the chain.
• The combination of competencies can create a compelling new business model that will draw in more customers than the linear value chain approach.
• Look at the players and the relationships: can you identify ways to pool resources and competences with other members – i.e. to redraw relationships, or to add new partners/members or competencies- so as to respond to customer needs in an integrated way?
• Can you propose a set of inter-relationships that would create a win-win situation for all parties in the network?
• By introducing new partners and relationships, can you make the product more appealing or more accessible to your customer (while adding value for everyone involved)?

Combining 9-Windows and SWOT Analysis
• The SWOT analysis idea is used across a wide range of technical and business areas as a means of scoping a given problem, opportunity or innovation situation. It attempts to get the person or team involved in the analysis to look at their situation from a number of different perspectives - namely, what are we good at, what are we not so good at, what are the things that could help us to become good, and what are the things that could stop us from becoming good.
• Combining this thinking approach with the 9-Windows offers a number of additional useful perspectives. Of particular interest in many situations are the idea of repeating the SWOT analysis in the 9-Windows ‘Future' positions and ‘super-system' positions. With regard to the ‘future' perspective, the idea of re-thinking the questions on opportunities and threats can be very important because it forces the team to think about not just what they think will happen in the future, but also what they think their competitors and the market will do. In a related manner, asking the same questions from a super-system perspective opens the eyes of the team to other industries beyond their own.
• By way of example of both, if we put ourselves in the position of a hypothetical car manufacturer struggling with the idea of developing a commercially viable electric car then, thinking about ‘threats' at the system level present (as a conventional SWOT analysis would), is likely to get us to think about what other car manufacturers are doing.
• This is likely to put us into a psychological inertia hole (Reference 3) that will focus our thinking onto hybrid vehicles and fuel cells. While this is undoubtedly necessary, it is far from certain that it is sufficient. Conducting the same SWOT analysis from the perspective of the super-system ought to point us at already viable electric transport systems like golf carts and postal delivery vans.
• According to Reference 4, it is more likely that these things will evolve and improve to take over the electric car market than anything developed by Ford or General Motors. Conducting the SWOT analysis from the ‘future' perspective would further force the inclusion of solar energy and battery technology evolution (and, probably as likely, evolutionary limits), and, at the future-super-system level, global warming, choking of road systems and development of better public transport systems.
• Thinking about the third ‘interface' dimension illustrated in Figure 1, it is interesting to note that the idea of integrating the SWOT analysis into the different hierarchical levels of ‘interfaces' (environment, behaviour, capability, belief, identity) and seeing how the analysis changes between different viewing perspectives (‘the map is not the territory' from Reference 1), is already established practice in certain forms of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) - see Reference 5 for example.
•
1) Installation 2) Repairs 3) Training4) Parts supply5) Product adjustment
3) Training Do you need to train your customers for better use of your product? If so, do you provide this training or are you outsourcing it? What are the trade-offs involved in this decision? How do the other activities that your company performs influence the level of knowledge needed to operate your product?
4) Parts supply How do you provide spare parts to your customers? Do your distributors or installers store some of these parts themselves? This choice must be consistent with the activities you perform in other parts of your value chain, such as outbound logistics, and sales and marketing.
5) Product adjustment
Is your product customised? What level of customisation do you provide? The activities involved in product customisation play a central role in deciding what type of target customer you are trying to reach.
Service
Service represents the fifth and final category of primary activity in your value chain. The service category comprises those activities geared towards maintaining the value of your product once it has been sold to the final customer.
Typical services activities include the following:
1) Installation Does your product need to be installed at the customer’s premises? What does the installation procedure involve? How effective is communication between the installation team and the outbound logistics division?
2) Repairs How do you manage repair activities? Does your organisation provide repairs or does it outsource? What type of warranty are you offering? Is this in tune with your overall strategy?

Value/Rareness/Inimitability/Organizational orientations
• A strength is something a firm does well or a characteristic that enhances its competitiveness
– Valuable human assets– Valuable competencies or know-how– Valuable physical assets– Valuable organizational assets– Valuable intangible assets– Important competitive capabilities– An attribute that places a company in
a position of market advantage– Alliances or cooperative ventures with capable partners
Resource strengths and competitive capabilities are competitive assets !
For example, each of the following may be considered weaknesses:• lack of patent protection• a weak brand name• poor reputation among customers• high cost structure• lack of access to the best natural resources• lack of access to key distribution channels• lack of marketing expertise• undifferentiated products and service (i.e. in relation to your competitors)• location of your business• poor quality goods or services• damaged reputation
• Opportunities: • Our business sector is expanding, with many future opportunities for success• Our local council wants to encourage local businesses with work where possible• Our competitors may be slow to adopt new technologies
• Threats: • Will developments in technology change this market beyond our ability to adapt?• A small change in focus of a large competitor might wipe out any market position we achieve
• The consultancy might therefore decide to specialize in rapid response, good value services to local businesses. Marketing would be in selected local publications, to get the greatest possible market presence for a set advertising budget. The consultancy should keep up-to-date with changes in technology where possible.
