3. LEVELS OF IOS
 Individual Organizations:
For individual organizations, their networks influence their
power position within a sector, influence the access to new
knowledge, and generally determine opportunities and
constraints.
 The Networks Themselves:
For the networks themselves (network level outcomes), how
they are structured and governed influences to a great extent
what outcomes they produce and in case of engineered
networks to what extent they are able to achieve their goals.

4.  The Wider Community or Society:
For the wider community or society, the way they are
structured and governed determines the positive or negative
effects these networks might have, for example, in terms of
innovative spillovers or policy making.”

IV. REDUCE BUSINESS RISKS

9. EFFICIENT SCM
Supply chain management, SCM, refers to the network and
communication between interconnected businesses that depend on one
another to deliver a product or service to the public. An interorganizational
system creates automated communication between interconnected
businesses, or information that is programmed to update itself, with minimal
manual operation from a worker.
TECHNOLOGY EXCHANGE
Running an IOS requires the use of technology. Phones, computers,
internet and intelligent computer programs and software are used to send
and receive messages and store and interpret data. When one company
implements and uses a new technology in an IOS system, partnering
companies automatically benefit from this discovery. Technology is
exchanged easily and encourages creators to develop new products and
programs.

10. GLOBAL COMMUNICATION
IOS makes communication available at a global level. A business
implementing this system for the first time may start at a local level. Once
the business understands its capacity for an IOS system, it can implement
new technological tools, hire new employees and seek to incorporate
businesses at a national and global level. The wider the network of
communication, the more businesses have a chance to learn new tactics
from one another and increase productivity.
REDUCE BUSINESS RISKS
Every business takes risks during the process of production. These
risks include safety, financial and operational risks. An effective ISO
system reduces these risks, making sure each aspect of the business is
being watched. The system provides checks and balances that hold each
aspect of the company accountable to one another and partnering
companies.
