Outsourcing
Transfers traditional internal activities and resources of a firm to outside vendors
Utilizes the efficiency that comes with specialization, vendor is an expert in that specialty.
Firms outsource information technology, accounting, legal, logistics, and production There is no tangible product or transfer of title, only resources (facilities, people, equipment) are transferred.

Vertical integration
Keiretsu networks Virtual companies that use suppliers on an as needed basis
11 26
Many Suppliers
Commonly used for commodity products Purchasing is typically based on price. Suppliers aggresively compete with one another; order goes to the low bider. Supplier is responsible for technology, expertise, forecasting, cost, quality, and delivery Almost no information sharing Infrequent large lots Delivery to receiving dock Long term relationship is not the goal!
Disadvantage:
11 27
Few Suppliers
Buyer forms longer term relationships with fewer suppliers Create value through economies of scale and learning curve improvements, in the long run! Suppliers participate in JIT programs, contribute design and technological expertise Frequent, small lots Delivery to point of use Disadvantages: Cost of changing partner is high There might be problems with poor supplier performance Suppliers can make other alliances. Ex: Schwinn Bicycle Co. & Giant Manufacturing Co.

Vertical Integration
Vertical Integration
Raw material (suppliers) Backward integration Current transformation
Steel
Automobiles
Integrated circuits
Flour milling
Forward integration
Distribution systems
Circuit boards
Dealers
11 29
Vertical Integration
Developing the ability to produce goods or service previously purchased. Ex. Ford Motor manufactures its own radios. Texas Instruments produce integrated circuits as well as flat screens, calculators. Integration may be forward, towards the customer, or backward, towards suppliers Can improve cost, quality, and timely delivery, decrease inventory Most beneficial when the company has large market share and components are highly integrated
Disadvantages
Keiretsu Networks
A middle ground between few suppliers and vertical integration
Supplier becomes part of the company coalition Often provide financial support for suppliers through ownership or loans Members expect long-term relationships and provide technical expertise and stable deliveries May extend through several levels of the supply chain
2008 Prentice Hall, Inc. 11 31
Virtual Companies
Vertical integration has many drawbacks, so find good flexible suppliers and rely on variety of supplier relationships. Ex: doing payroll, hiring personnel, designing products, providing consulting services, distributing products, Relationship: short term, long term, include partners, collaborators Results in specialized management expertise, low capital investment, flexibility and speed.. Ex: Cloth designers give licence to the manufacturer who rents space, lease sewing m/cs, contract for labor, subcontact other services. Disadvantages: - Selecting the companies to join the alliance - Sharing revenues - Evaluating performance 2008 Prentice Hall, Inc.

Compatible organizational cultures: strengthen the relationship with formal and informal contacts
2008 Prentice Hall, Inc. 11 33
Incentives (sales incentives, quantity discounts, quotas, and promotions) - push merchandise prior to sale
Large lots - low unit cost but do not reflect sales All result in increased bullwhip effect!
11 34
Bullwhip effect
Increasing fluctuation in orders towards the upper supply chain.
Results in:
Increases cost of inventory, shipping, etc Decreases customer service and profitability A well running SC is based on accurate information about how many products are truly being pulled through the system.
2008 Prentice Hall, Inc. 11 35
Reduction of lot size by aggressive management Ex: develop economical shipments of small size
discounts based on annual volume reduce cost of ordering Single stage control of replenishment A member is resposible for the inventory management of the whole chain like a retailer, distributor or manufacturer.

Channel assembly
Postpones final assembly of a product so the distribution channel can assemble it.
2008 Prentice Hall, Inc. 11 39
E-Procurement
Use of internet to facilitate purchasing. Reduces total cycle time, paperwork, integrates SC, enhances organizations competitive advantage.
A SC may contain many of the above techniques within automated purchasing systems.
Internet is used to communicate order releases to suppliers, especially for blanket orders.
For nonblanket orders, catalogs and ordering procedures on internet enhance the communicating features.
11 40
Modern Techniques
Online catalogs
Auctions RFQs Real time inventory tracking
2008 Prentice Hall, Inc. 11 41
E-Procurement
Online catalogs
Provide information about products and cost comparisons among suppliers in electronic form
E-Procurement
Auctions
Maintained by buyers, sellers, or intermediaries Use lower barriers for entry
E-Procurement
RFQ: Request for Quote
When purchasing requirements are nonstandard, RFQ preparation is too time consuming! E-Procurement can make it less costly Improves supplier selection
Ex: GE has extensive database of vendors, deliver, quality, engineering drawings

Logistics Management
Objective is to obtain efficient operations through the integration of all material acquisition, movement, and storage activities Is a frequent candidate for outsourcing
Allows competitive advantage to be gained through reduced costs and improved customer service
2008 Prentice Hall, Inc. 11 48
Distribution Systems
Trucking
Moves the vast majority of manufactured goods Chief advantage is flexibility
Railroads
Capable of carrying large loads
Little flexibility though containers and piggybacking have helped with this
2008 Prentice Hall, Inc. 11 49
Distribution Systems
Airfreight
Fast and flexible for light loads May be expensive
11 50
Distribution Systems
Waterways
Typically used for bulky, lowvalue cargo Used when shipping cost is more important than speed
11 51
Distribution Systems
Pipelines
Used for transporting oil, gas, and other chemical products

Third-Party Logistics
Outsourcing logistics can reduce costs and improve delivery reliability and speed Logistics firm can coordinate supplier inventory with delivery services FedEx provide warehousing, assembly, testing, shipping, customs for Dell Computer
