IBM expected to exceed $100 billion in revenue by the end of the 1980s as it converted to a sales model, but struggled as the PC market emerged. Profit margins dropped below 10% by 1989 as revenue reached only $60 billion. In the 1990s, a new CEO reversed plans to break up IBM and grew the services business, with profit margins recovering to 8% by 1999 and revenue reaching $82 billion.

Production and characterization of fermented rice flour containing gamma-amin...Agriculture Journal IJOEAR
Abstract— Fermented foods provides therapeutical attributes beyond their basic nutritional value and are known to reduce disease risk. Broken rice was fermented using Enterococcus faecium NCIM 5593 and its fermentation characteristics was studied. Attempts were made to formulate gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) containing fermented rice flour (GFRF) by lactic acid fermentation. Fermentation enhanced the level of GABA and antioxidant phenolics. GFRF exhibited potential antioxidant capacity evaluated against DPPH (77.89±1.85 mg vitamin C equivalent/g dry matter) and ABTS (163.21±2.81 mg vitamin C equivalent/g dry matter) radicals. Fermentation significantly increased the levels of proteins and reduced carbohydrate content. Microstructure of GFRF was also influenced, where its starch granules where released from its enclosed structure after fermentation. In addition, fermentation enhanced the whiteness of the flour. This investigation shows evidence that fermentation modified the functionality of GFRF and can be used as a functional food ingredient. Further studies are directed towards studying the effect of GFRF extract to ameliorate neurotoxin induced oxidative dysfunctions and neurotoxicity in mice model. iTunes and Podcasting

January 1, 2015. It is New Year’s Day and Virginia Rometty, IB.docx
January 1, 2015. It is New Year’s Day and Virginia Rometty, IBM’s chief executive officer (CEO),
looks at IBM’s performance and knows the company faces challenges. In October 2014, IBM announced
a tenth consecutive quarter of flat or declining sales, and she broke with prior CEO commitments to
earn more than $20 a share every year.1 IBM has a history of reacting to change slowly, but eventu-
ally reinventing itself. Under her predecessor, Sam Palmisano (2002–2011), IBM underwent significant
changes. Palmisano redefined IBM by deemphasizing hardware to increase the impact of consulting
and software. In 2002, IBM acquired PricewaterhouseCoopers Consulting for $3.5 billion and Rational
Software for $2.1 billion to remake IBM around three complementary areas of Systems and Financing,
Software, and Services (see Exhibit 1). Rometty was part of those changes and, since becoming CEO,
she has divested unprofitable businesses, such as selling its server unit to Lenovo for $2.1 billion in
2014, and paying Global Foundries $1.5 billion to take IBM’s money-losing chip business in 2014.2 Still,
a clear move by IBM into new profitable areas has remained elusive. Further, increased competition in
cloud computing services from Amazon and Google put pressure on software and services sales and
revenues (see Exhibit 2).
As she celebrates her third-year anniversary as CEO, Rometty becomes increasingly aware that time
is the one thing she is running out of to change IBM. Once again in its over-100-year history, IBM is at
the crossroads. It is time for further changes at IBM so it can adapt to disruptive cloud computing and
data analytics technologies. Alternatively, will the current strategy of offering customers integrated
technology solutions enable growing revenues from cloud computing and data analytics? As Virginia
Rometty is getting ready for the new year, she ponders: What needs to be done to avoid her becoming
known as the CEO that oversaw IBM’s decline or being dismissed early in her tenure?
Brief History of IBM
IBM’s (“Big Blue’s”) history dates back to long before electronic computers, reflecting several tech-
nological discontinuities (see Exhibit 3). It originated as the Tabulating Machine Company in 1896,
and it specialized in the development of punch-card data-processing equipment. Thomas J. Watson,
Sr. became general manager of the company in 1914 and in 1924 changed its name to International
Business Machines Corporation, or IBM. During the next 20 years, IBM grew rapidly. Despite the Great
Depression of the 1930s, IBM continued to manufacture new products, and after passage of the Social

IBM SWOT
IBM has been a technological leader for over a century, holding more patents than any other company for 17 straight years. However, its large size also makes it slower to adapt. While IBM remains highly profitable and recognized globally, its workforce has declined as jobs have moved overseas, and the recession has impacted key clients in the financial industry. To strengthen its position, IBM must continue innovating, appeal to younger customers, and increase market share in small and medium businesses. Competitors pose an ongoing threat if they can provide cheaper alternatives.
Ibm presentation
IBM was founded in 1896 and is now a global technology company that manufactures and sells computer hardware and software as well as offering consulting services. IBM has approximately 400,000 employees worldwide and holds more patents than any other US technology company. While IBM was affected by the recession with annual sales falling below $100 billion, their fourth quarter profits increased by 8.7% and they expect full year profits to be ahead of expectations. IBM continues to grow and develop new software and technology and gain new business deals around the world.
The rebirth of ibm
IBM hired Louis Gerstner as CEO in 1993 to turn the company around. Gerstner stabilized IBM by cutting costs, selling off unprofitable business units, and focusing on services and software. Under Gerstner's leadership, IBM transitioned from manufacturing computers to providing consulting services and prioritized high-margin businesses like middleware. These strategic changes helped IBM become profitable again and regain its position as a leading technology company.

IBM and cloud computing
This document analyzes IBM's strategic shifts to address the emerging cloud computing industry. It examines IBM's history from the mainframe era to its acquisitions of SoftLayer and PWC to become a leader in cloud services. The SWOT and revised Yip's framework are used to analyze IBM's strengths in infrastructure and reputation, weaknesses in business model, and opportunities in government and large enterprise markets. The document recommends IBM partner with other technology companies and focus on cost-effective cloud services to maintain relevance against competitors like Amazon, Microsoft, and Google in the growing cloud industry.
IBM, 108 years of never-ending transformation
IBM was formed in 1911 through the merger of three companies and has since transformed into a global technology leader. Over the past 108 years, IBM has continuously reinvented itself, evolving from mechanical devices to pioneering innovations like the personal computer, internet, AI, and quantum computing. Today, IBM is a cognitive solutions and cloud platform company focused on industries like healthcare, transportation and agriculture.

revamping customers' operations-

IT WAS OVER A LUNCH IN CINCINNATI TWO
years ago that IBM Chief Executive Samuel J.
Palmisano got his first inkling of Big Blue's
next act. Palmisano was talking business
with A.G. Lafley, CEO of Procter & Gamble
Co., one of IBM's big customers. At one point,
Lafley asked Palmisano to estimate how
many of P&G's 100,000 employees it truly
needed to keep on its payroll. When
Palmisano didn't venture a guess, Lañey
stunned him by saying that P&G might be
able to get by with only a quarter of its
workforce. Specialized service companies
might be able to handle everything else, from
human resou:rces to customer care. ::

For IBM's new CEO, Lafle/s idea
delivered a strong jolt of the future. "We saw it
as an industry shift," he recalls. Palmisano
was already an expert in technology services,
such as running data centers and managing
companies' computing operations. Working

COVER STORY
taining simuar thoughts, a vast new market could emerge.
Over the past two years, Palmisano has built these concepts
into a strategy that would be laughable—if it weren't so serious.
His goal is to free IBM from the confines of the $1.2 trillion
computer industry, which is grovidng at just 6% a year. Instead
of merely selling and servicing technology, IBM is putting to use
the immense resources it has in-house, from its software pro-
grammers to its 3,300 research scientists, to help companies
like P&G rethink, remake, and even run their businesses—
everything from accounting and customer service to human re-
sources and procurement. "We're giving our clients a transfor-
mational lift," says Palmisano.
Whue Palmisano looks out at the world through thick glasses,
he's not short on vision. He expects that vidthin 10 years IBM
could build an annual revenue stream of as much as $50 billion
in business consulting and outsourcing services. If so, Palmisano
wül have created a second services miracle and hitched IBM to a
crucial growth market. And in the process, his company wiU be
fixing—or running—big chunks of the world's business.
MAKEOVERS &
TAKEOVERS
No Sure Bet
PALMISANO IS OUT TO TRANSFORM the very nature and im-
age of Big Blue, a nickname derived a half-century ago from the
company's muscular blue mainframe computers. His goal is to
carry IBM beyond that 20th century legacy, be.
Rebirth of IBM
IBM has a long history dating back to 1911. After struggling in the 1990s, IBM underwent a major transformation led by CEO Lou Gerstner in the 1990s. Gerstner shifted IBM's focus from hardware to services and consulting. Subsequent CEO Samuel Palmisano continued this services focus and introduced the concept of "on-demand" computing. Today under current CEO Virginia Rometty, IBM continues to successfully transform its business model and focus on growth areas like cloud computing and artificial intelligence through acquisitions and innovation.

COVER STORY
taining simuar thoughts, a vast new market could emerge.
Over the past two years, Palmisano has built these concepts
into a strategy that would be laughable—if it weren't so serious.
His goal is to free IBM from the confines of the $1.2 trillion
computer industry, which is grovidng at just 6% a year. Instead
of merely selling and servicing technology, IBM is putting to use
the immense resources it has in-house, from its software pro-
grammers to its 3,300 research scientists, to help companies
like P&G rethink, remake, and even run their businesses—
everything from accounting and customer service to human re-
sources and procurement. "We're giving our clients a transfor-
mational lift," says Palmisano.
Whue Palmisano looks out at the world through thick glasses,
he's not short on vision. He expects that vidthin 10 years IBM
could build an annual revenue stream of as much as $50 billion
in business consulting and outsourcing services. If so, Palmisano
wül have created a second services miracle and hitched IBM to a
crucial growth market. And in the process, his company wiU be
fixing—or running—big chunks of the world's business.
MAKEOVERS &
TAKEOVERS
No Sure Bet
PALMISANO IS OUT TO TRANSFORM the very nature and im-
age of Big Blue, a nickname derived a half-century ago from the
company's muscular blue mainframe computers. His goal is to
carry IBM beyond that 20th century legacy, be.
Rebirth of IBM
IBM has a long history dating back to 1911. After struggling in the 1990s, IBM underwent a major transformation led by CEO Lou Gerstner in the 1990s. Gerstner shifted IBM's focus from hardware to services and consulting. Subsequent CEO Samuel Palmisano continued this services focus and introduced the concept of "on-demand" computing. Today under current CEO Virginia Rometty, IBM continues to successfully transform its business model and focus on growth areas like cloud computing and artificial intelligence through acquisitions and innovation.
