Value Chain Management

TPTM6170

Most large organisations consider Asia to becoming the new global manufacturing centre: Australian businesses are increasingly working as components of value chain networks working within this emerging structure. The key focus of this unit is to introduce the concepts of what has been identified as the "New Economy Business Model". It explores the concepts using examples and case studies. The changes to facilitate this are not just sales and marketing driven, but encompass design and development, production and distribution in a holistic business model. Products and services now have multiple applications and business organisations are redefining their core capabilities and processes; and many products become services as they move through their life cycles. In traditional business model companies competed with each other; in the new economy business model "value chain networks" are competing with each other. At the industry level value chains can be seen as business network structures, or confederations, that are developing from traditional corporations. To emphasise the need to understand how organisations are working in this new business environment assessments use current problems in actual organisations.
