Two Forms of Strategy
Achieving higher-level goals– A strategy is developed in order to achieve a goal like
implementing an organizational change, of a large software package
A strategy related to plans concerning the long term position of the firm– A strategic planning that has to do with the external
positioning of the firm in its competitive environment

Strategic positioning
A company must start with the right goals;A company’s strategy must enable it to deliver a value proposition, or set of benefits, different from those that its competitors offer;Company strategy needs to be reflected in a distinctive value chain;Robust company strategies involve trade-offs;Company strategy defines how all the elements of what a company does fit together;Company strategy involves continuity of direction.

Three Levels of e-BusinessStrategy
The supply chain or industry value chain level;
The line of business or (strategic) Business Unitlevel;
The corporate of enterprise level for each firm that encompasses a collection of business units.
![Page 8: E-Business Strategy, Models and Processes - Ch02 Ch03 Ch04](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020208/563dbbbe550346aa9aafe0dd/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
www.wiley.com/go/ebusiness 8
The supply chain or industry value chain level
This analyses gives an impetus to insight in upstream and downstream data and information flows.Important issues – Who are the direct customers?– What is the value proposal to those customers?– Who are the suppliers?– How does the firm add value to those suppliers?– Etc…..
![Page 9: E-Business Strategy, Models and Processes - Ch02 Ch03 Ch04](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020208/563dbbbe550346aa9aafe0dd/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
www.wiley.com/go/ebusiness 9
The line of business or (strategic) Business Unit level (1)
This is the level where the competitive strategy in a particular market for a particular product and so the strategic positioning is developed
![Page 10: E-Business Strategy, Models and Processes - Ch02 Ch03 Ch04](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020208/563dbbbe550346aa9aafe0dd/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
www.wiley.com/go/ebusiness 10
The Line of Business or (Strategic) Business Unit level (2)
Four generic strategies for achieving a profitable business:Differentiation; a strategy that refers to all the ways producers can make their products unique and distinguish them from those of competitors;Cost; this strategy that means that a company primarily competes with low costs;Scope; a strategy to compete in market world-wide, rather than merely in local, regional or national markets;Focus; a strategy to compete within a narrow market segment or product segment.
![Page 11: E-Business Strategy, Models and Processes - Ch02 Ch03 Ch04](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020208/563dbbbe550346aa9aafe0dd/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
www.wiley.com/go/ebusiness 11
The corporate or enterprise level for each firm that encompasses a
collection of business unitsThis level addresses the problem of synergy through a firm-
wide available common IT infrastructure.Commonality of E-business is basically needed for two
reasons:From an efficiency point of view; having different applications for the same functionality in different lines of business is needlessly costly;From an effectiveness point of view; there is a need for cross line of Business communication and share-ability of data.

Changing competitive agenda
In every business agenda change is a top level priority– From a supplier driven economy to a consumer driven
economy– From mass production and mass distribution to
customization and customer-driven planning– From a producer focus to a consumer focus

The resource-based view
The resource-based view considers internal resources and competencies and sources of potential competitive advantage, instead of looking at the environment and making strategy plan accordingly.

Two key issues concerning firms are:– Which activities should a firm keep within its
boundaries and activities should it outsource?– In which should a firm manage its relationship with its
customers, suppliers and other business partners?

Introduction
The vertical bureaucratic structure in a firm is built on the assumption that concentrating similar activities within functions, and thus separating activities which are not similar,would result in economies of scale.The internet and related technologies reduce coordination costs and transaction costs.Traditional business models focused on creating value at the line-of-business level while the new business models focus on the customers and creating value at the relationship level across products and channels.

Pressures Forcing Business Changes
The unprecedented challenges which businesses are facing nowadays makes competition fiercer and more global. Customers become increasingly demanding because of competing products and service offerings.The increasingly competition leads companies to rethink their position in the market place fundamentally.To have success in today’s market, business networking strategies are required to provide high quality, cost-efficient products reflecting the customers need. This is made possible by the development of modern information technology.

Definition of a Portal
Portals are web sites targeted at specific audiences and communities, providing:– content aggregation/delivery of information relevant to
the audience– collaboration and community services– services/applications access for target audiences
![Page 53: E-Business Strategy, Models and Processes - Ch02 Ch03 Ch04](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020208/563dbbbe550346aa9aafe0dd/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)

Portal Include Three Types:
Horizontal Portals: Originally created to provide search engine services, these portals focus on the entirety of the Internet, not specified audiences, from various industriesVertical Portals: Often referred to as Vortals, these sites focus on targeted areas of interest, such as healthcare or financial services. Affinity Portals: Provide highly specific information, much like vertical portals but focused on specific interest groups or market segments.

Cybermediaries Business Model
Directories: Directory service intermediaries help consumers find producers by categorizing Web sites and providing structured menus to faciliate navigation. Search Services: In contrast to the directories, search sites (e.g. Lycosand Infoseek) provide users with the capabilities for conducting keyword searches of extensive databases of Web sites/pages. Malls: The term virtual mall or internet mall is often used to refer to any site that has more than two commercial sites linked to it. Virtual Resellers: The malls described above provide cyber-infrastructure, but they do not own inventory or sell products directly. Web Site Evaluators: Consumers may be directed to a producer's site via a new type of site that offers some form of evaluation, which may help to reduce some of the risk to consumers.

Cybermediaries Business Model
Publishers Publisher Web sites are "traffic generators" that offer content of interest to consumers (e.g. Information Week or Wired Magazine). Auditors Auditors are not direct intermediaries, but serve the same functions as audience measurement services in traditional media.Forums, Fan Clubs, and User Groups Sites such as these are also not necessarily direct intermediaries, but can play a large role in facilitating customer-producer feedback and supporting market research. Financial Intermediaries Any form of electronic commerce will require some means of making or authorizing payments from buyer to seller. Spot Market Makers The emergency of such a service isn’t surprising considering the speed with which e-networks can distribute information. Barter Networks – Buyers and sellers exchange goods rather than pay for them with money. Intelligent Agents Intelligent agents are often discussed as the answer to user problems with navigation in the chaos of the Internet.

Business Process Management
The focus on the final customer as opposed to the focus on vertical functional activities has lead in the 90’s to an increased interest for processes and their management.A (business) process view implies an horizontal view on a business organization and looks at processes as sets of interdependent activities designed and structured to produce a specific output for a customer or a market.A process is an ordering of activities with a beginning and an end; It has inputs (in terms of resources, materials and information) and a specified output. Processes can be measured, and different performance measures apply, like cost, quality, time and customer satisfaction.
