23. Comparison of Market Opportunity
Analysis
Old Economy New Economy
Competition Within industries Within & Across
industries
Competitor Slower Rapid
development speed
Competition between Companies Alliances of
companies
Consumer Established Being defined
behaviour patterns
Value Configured Being rapidly
chain/system reconfigured
24. Distribution and logistics have been
evolving rapidly…Trends include:
Globalization
Increased competition
Falling distribution and logistics costs
Increased outsourcing
Consolidation among businesses involved in
distribution and logistics activities (transport
and storage) – Full service logistics solutions
Increasing integration of distribution and
logistics into value chains
25. Implications:
Shorter order cycles
Demands for smaller, more frequent, more reliable
deliveries
More varied delivery patterns related to product shelf-
life, product customization, production and retailing
strategies and the reliability of short-term forecasting
Closer relationship between customer and logistic
services suppliers, often with fewer suppliers
Outsourcing of logistics to third party logistics
managers, allowing firms to share distribution
facilities
Greather use of recycling and managed disposal,
which has resulted in additional back-haul cargoes
(i.e. reverse logistics)
