The document summarizes a lecture about a project between MIT Sloan School of Management and UPS over 3 years. The professor wants to share what they learned from researching UPS's supply chain. The lecture also discusses a presentation by Adriana Ferreira about challenges of providing internal services and the need for managers to understand analytical frameworks to make strong arguments. It notes the importance of services within supply chains and that the UPS project examined this area.
2011 07 Cloud Service Contracts Get Stormy FinalMichele Hudnall
In the rush to the cloud, many business leaders are heading for trouble. Companies that don’t follow a roadmap or set up a safety net are driving off a cliff, encountering service failures that threaten viability. First businesses need to assess services for cost, value and risk to develop the roadmap that considers short- and long-term costs and savings. Second, businesses must build the safety net in terms of a service contract that outlines expectations for quality, performance, responsiveness, support, disruption and end of contract. This session will discuss the strategy for developing a service roadmap, contract and how to measure and govern the service provider, ensuring perception is reality.

Applying Military Concepts to Business Planning: Operational vs. Tactical vs....Flevy.com Best Practices
Original article from the Flevy business blog can be found here:
http://flevy.com/blog/applying-military-concepts-to-business-planning-operational-vs-tactical-vs-strategic/
We usually divide Planning into three analytical levels with a strong military flavor: Operational, Tactical and Strategic (a clear example of a classical proverb that in the Military everything consists of three parts ).
Despite the fact that all these levels are defined pretty clearly ( Strategic – where are we going? Tactical – what are we doing to get where we’re going? Operational – how are we doing it?), there still seems to be some confusion in the eyes of many Managers.
You see, in the Military, the meanings of these concepts are somewhat different from the ones we’re using in the Business world. Let’s consider this difference while drawing some meaningful parallels to what we might encounter in our everyday work.
Here is how they define the levels in the Military, while adding some extra:
Technological level – the properties and the abilities of the physical equipment, including personnel.
Business example : new operating system is installed on computers inside the organization; staff is trained in its use.
Tactical level – the utilization of the equipment in the physical environment; “erosion by friction”.
Business example : discovered bugs in the software need to be dealt with; people have difficulties with using the software even after training; all that leads to delays.
Operational level – interaction of own actions and plans with those of the adversary.
Business example : clients are unhappy with delays; competitors try to take over the client base – there is a need to salvage the situation.
Strategic level – the submission of all actions and plans to clear goals .
Business example: decision needs to be made: to return to previous system in order to quickly repair the situation or to try dealing with the problem directly by upgrading hardware/updating software/having better training. There are two conflicting goals here: immediate effectiveness and conservatism vs. long-term efficiency and innovation.
Big Data and Analytics: The New Underpinning for Supply Chain Success? - 17 F...Lora Cecere
Executive Overview
Today data is everywhere: but, nowhere. The world’s per capita capacity to store information has doubled every 40 months since the 1980s; and as of 2012, every day globally, 2.5 exabytes of data are created . As a result, social and customer data piles on the doorstep of the corporation, and operational data sits in the creases and cracks between functions. While many companies invested in data warehouse technologies and advanced applications for optimization, a common complaint in qualitative interviews with business leaders is “I cannot get to my data.” One business leader likened it to a Hotel California where, “The data checks into the system, but does not check out.” In most companies with heterogeneous information technology landscapes, simple reporting is still a major problem.
In the face of growing data, companies struggle with the basics. The question is, “Why pursue a big data and analytics strategy if the company cannot do basis reporting?” No doubt about it, the current state of analytics is a barrier to building supply chain excellence. It is hard to have a data-driven discussion if you can’t get access to data.

Building Motivation
Communicate Why the Redesign is Needed
People need a compelling reason to change. With all of the changes being requested and demanded of people in the current world, people must be convinced that change is necessary.
Even when leadership initiates organizational change, it is often experienced as just one more unrealistic and often absurd demand. Employees are likely to respond in a passive-aggressive manner and simply do things the same. The previously engaged workforce may suddenly start misplacing things, ignoring e-mails, and spending hours talking with colleagues about what is happening. It is the leadership’s responsibility to not only have a vision but to also see that motivation for the change effort is high. Consultants can be helpful to management in this regard, but ultimately it is management’s responsibility. An offhand announcement of a redesign can literally bring production to a halt in a business. Even though management feels the redesign is in the employees’ best interest, if they are not properly prepared and brought in, the employees are likely to respond to the news in a way that will not move things forward. In fact, without a timely and wise explanation of why changes are needed, they may see the redesign as irresponsibility on the part of management.
Communicating Credible Reasons and Expectations for the Redesign
Management must take the time not only to provide a clear vision of the redesign but to also communicate why the redesign is necessary. The cost of not taking time to communicate credible reasons as to why the redesign was done and providing credible expectations of what it will take to realize the benefits of the redesign, will cost the company dearly.
One way to build support is to involve employees and other stakeholders in the diagnosis and redesign. This takes time, but it helps employees understand why the redesign is important and builds motivation for making it work. However, if management already has its mind made up and is going to do what it wants to do regardless, involvement can backfire in a big way.
At the least, a communication campaign is essential. The campaign must be honest because employees and other stakeholders can see through the spin and hype.
Do not Ignore Resistance
Resistance is feedback. Figure out why it is there, and do not force it. Like the plumber or mechanic who forces a part to fit, the likely result is generally a broken part. Force generally does not work and is nearly always expensive and time-consuming. Resistance is natural. Ohm’s lawapplies to human behavior much like it does in physics—there is always resistance. Good managers and consultants learn from the resistance and manage it.
Managing the Changing Relationships
Acknowledge Changing Relationships and Responsibilities
Redesigns nearly always change relationships and responsibilities. Not addressing these lead to conf.
Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Grote partijen zijn al een tijdje onderweg met retail media. Ondertussen worden in dit domein ook de kansen zichtbaar voor andere spelers in de markt. Maar met die kansen ontstaan ook vragen: Zelf retail media worden of erop adverteren? In welke fase van de funnel past het en hoe integreer je het in een mediaplan?

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

Lecture 18: Supply Chain Governance: UPS Project
Class Outline
UPS Project with the MIT Sloan School of Management
Today, I want to do something that brings a lot of material we discussed so far together. I want to
share with you the field research we have done with UPS over 3 years. The work was done by
Sloan fellows as part of their thesis. Our list of services that are being valued by the supply chain
will open up opportunities for many of you to take advantage of. The UPS project brings together
the two parts of what we’ve been talking about, like the Barilla case did.
Reaction to Adriana Ferreira’s Presentation
Adriana Ferreira’s presentation was a very good fit with what we discussed. A lot of challenges
result (are highlighted) from providing a service even internally within the organization. What are
our priorities? How do market them within our organization? The challenges she discussed
related to our frameworks. Her organization may be trying to change too quickly. They brought in
outsiders, which might create tension with the existing employees.
It was impressive to see how she’s handling the pressure. It’s hard because some decisions
came from the top down, and she didn’t have a tight enough gasp of the frameworks to argue
with senior management. Without a relevant framework to guide our thinking, we tend to act
intuitively. If you’re not equipped with tools to argue against senior management, they can easily
exert pressure on you. Every manager should understand in a conscious way the science of
matching supply and demand, service guarantees, and the other frameworks we’ve discussed.
Finance theory entered the boardroom because they have conceptual and analytical models.
When you go to the board to ask for a capital investment, they are equipped with the “time value
of money” and other frameworks. Often, the problem with manufacturing managers is the lack of
analytical or conceptual models to support their request for technology and equipment. If a
company does indeed buy equipment and augment capacity, it might actually result in more
expense because they’re just solving the problem at one node without having a system view.
There are success stories of companies centralizing IT operations. But often the problem is that
management “wanted it yesterday”. They gave you money before, but it didn’t work because you
weren’t equipped to use it. People often don’t have a way to convince the board when they ask
“how are you going to implement it?” You need to understand the system and the people in the
system, and their response to different eventualities that may occur in the change process. It is
frequently a failure of manufacturing managers, and I hope service managers can avoid having
the same problems. Or they will continue to operate intuitively, and with limited or short-term
success rather than a longer term role in defining company strategy.
UPS Project – Summary
With the UPS project, we took a look at the future – and future challenges – of the supply chain.
Many innovations that happen with supply chains going forward will likely be in services. This is
where the opportunities are likely to be. Therefore, we need to understand the role of services in
these very important industries and technological environments that can change world.
