1) Benchmarking involves measuring one's own products, services, and practices against the best performers worldwide in order to identify areas for improvement. 2) In the 1980s, Xerox Corporation's market share and profits significantly declined as Japanese companies were able to undercut Xerox's prices by having manufacturing costs that were 40-50% lower. 3) After adopting benchmarking practices from Japanese companies, such as reducing suppliers and instituting quality control programs, Xerox was able to dramatically cut costs and defects while improving customer satisfaction, productivity, and performance.

Benchmarking at xerox
Xerox Corporation used benchmarking extensively to improve its business operations and processes in the face of intense competition from Japanese companies in the 1980s. Through benchmarking, Xerox identified factors like higher manufacturing costs, lower quality, and inefficient supplier and inventory management processes compared to competitors. Xerox then implemented changes like reducing the number of suppliers, adopting just-in-time practices, optimizing inventory levels based on usage, and focusing on continuous improvement. As a result, Xerox saw significant benefits such as lower costs, higher customer satisfaction, and improved financial performance. Benchmarking became fully integrated into Xerox's management systems over time.
Xerox - Benchmarking
This presentation is based on case study on Benchmarking. This case study explains why there was a need of benchmarking and how Xerox benchmarked to come back in competition.

Xerox Benchmarking & IT
Xerox was founded in 1906 in the United States as a document and imaging company. It introduced the first plain paper copier in 1959, which brought about an early revolution and allowed the company to maintain a near monopoly for many years. However, by the 1980s Xerox faced intense competition from lower costs Japanese competitors, and its market share fell from 96% to 45% as it struggled with higher costs and inferior quality products. Xerox worked to address these issues through benchmarking and reducing defects.

Quality in Practice From Leadership Through Quality to Lean Six S.docx
This document summarizes the quality improvement efforts of Xerox Corporation from the 1970s to the present. It describes how Xerox faced a competitive crisis in the 1970s as competitors entered its markets. In 1983, Xerox president David Kearns launched the Leadership Through Quality initiative to comprehensively change the company's culture and focus on quality. This included benchmarking other companies, extensive employee training, and making quality the responsibility of all employees. It led to major improvements in production and customer satisfaction. In the 2000s, Xerox renewed its focus on quality through initiatives like New Quality and Lean Six Sigma to address another crisis, building on the foundations of Leadership Through Quality.

Quality in Practice: From Leadership Through Quality to Lean Six Sigma at Xerox41
The Xerox 914, the first plain-paper copier, was introduced in 1959. Regarded by many people as the most successful business product ever introduced, it created a new industry. During the 1960s Xerox grew rapidly, selling all it could produce, and reached $1 billion in revenue in record-setting time. By the mid-1970s its return on assets was in the low 20 percent range. Its competitive advantage was due to strong patents, a growing market, and little competition. In such an environment, management was not pressed to focus on customers.
Facing a Competitive Crisis
During the 1970s, however, IBM and Kodak entered the high-volume copier business—Xerox’s principal market. Several Japanese companies introduced high-quality low-volume copiers, a market that Xerox had virtually ignored, and established a foundation for moving into the high-volume market. In addition, the Federal Trade Commission accused Xerox of illegally monopolizing the copier business. After negotiations,
Xerox agreed to open approximately 1,700 patents to competitors. Xerox was soon losing market share to Japanese competitors, and by the early 1980s it faced a serious competitive threat from copy machine manufacturers in Japan; Xerox’s market share had fallen to less than 50 percent. Some people even predicted that the company would not survive. Rework, scrap, excessive inspection, lost business, and other problems were estimated to be costing Xerox more than 20 percent of revenue, which in 1983 amounted to nearly $2 billion. Both the company and its primary union, the Amalgamated Clothing and Textile Workers, were concerned. In comparing itself with its competition, Xerox discovered that it had nine times as many suppliers, twice as many employees, cycle times that were twice as long, 10 times as many rejects, and seven times as many manufacturing defects in finished products. It was clear that radical changes were required.
Leadership Through Quality
In 1983, company president David T. Kearns became convinced that Xerox needed a long-range, comprehensive quality strategy as well as a change in its traditional management culture (see Figure 1.5). Kearns was aware of Japanese subsidiary Fuji Xerox’s success in implementing quality management practices and was approached by several Xerox employees about instituting total quality management. He commissioned a team to outline a quality strategy for Xerox. The team’s report stated that instituting it would require changes in behaviors and attitudes throughout the company as well as operational changes in the company’s business practices. Kearns determined that Xerox would initiate a total quality management approach, that they would take the time to “design it right the first time,” and that the effort would involve all employees. Kearns and the company’s top 25 managers wrote the Xerox Quality Policy, which states:

The Evolution and Impact of OTT Platforms: A Deep Dive into the Future of Ent...
This presentation provides a thorough examination of Over-the-Top (OTT) platforms, focusing on their development and substantial influence on the entertainment industry, with a particular emphasis on the Indian market.We begin with an introduction to OTT platforms, defining them as streaming services that deliver content directly over the internet, bypassing traditional broadcast channels. These platforms offer a variety of content, including movies, TV shows, and original productions, allowing users to access content on-demand across multiple devices.The historical context covers the early days of streaming, starting with Netflix's inception in 1997 as a DVD rental service and its transition to streaming in 2007. The presentation also highlights India's television journey, from the launch of Doordarshan in 1959 to the introduction of Direct-to-Home (DTH) satellite television in 2000, which expanded viewing choices and set the stage for the rise of OTT platforms like Big Flix, Ditto TV, Sony LIV, Hotstar, and Netflix. The business models of OTT platforms are explored in detail. Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) models, exemplified by Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, offer unlimited content access for a monthly fee. Transactional Video on Demand (TVOD) models, like iTunes and Sky Box Office, allow users to pay for individual pieces of content. Advertising-Based Video on Demand (AVOD) models, such as YouTube and Facebook Watch, provide free content supported by advertisements. Hybrid models combine elements of SVOD and AVOD, offering flexibility to cater to diverse audience preferences.
Content acquisition strategies are also discussed, highlighting the dual approach of purchasing broadcasting rights for existing films and TV shows and investing in original content production. This section underscores the importance of a robust content library in attracting and retaining subscribers.The presentation addresses the challenges faced by OTT platforms, including the unpredictability of content acquisition and audience preferences. It emphasizes the difficulty of balancing content investment with returns in a competitive market, the high costs associated with marketing, and the need for continuous innovation and adaptation to stay relevant.
The impact of OTT platforms on the Bollywood film industry is significant. The competition for viewers has led to a decrease in cinema ticket sales, affecting the revenue of Bollywood films that traditionally rely on theatrical releases. Additionally, OTT platforms now pay less for film rights due to the uncertain success of films in cinemas.
Looking ahead, the future of OTT in India appears promising. The market is expected to grow by 20% annually, reaching a value of ₹1200 billion by the end of the decade. The increasing availability of affordable smartphones and internet access will drive this growth, making OTT platforms a primary source of entertainment for many viewers.
