TCI 2016 Tuning cluster polices with regional RIS3
This presentation discusses how cluster policies can be tuned with regional research and innovation strategies for smart specialization (RIS3). The presentation finds that cluster policies contribute to RIS3 through sustainable stakeholder engagement, cross-border collaboration, prioritization, evidence-based policymaking, and multi-level governance. Cluster policies are not just cluster programs but the whole set of instruments that facilitate collaboration across sectors and regional actors. Integrating existing cluster policy instruments within RIS3 implementation, and vice versa, can both strengthen clusters' contributions to integrated policy mixes and strengthen clusters themselves.

The document discusses open policy making, which aims to broaden input on policy by engaging more people, using new analytical techniques, and taking a more iterative approach. It notes the civil service does not have a monopoly on policymaking. Open policy making involves broadening engagement through tools like crowdsourcing and social media; keeping up with new tools like behavioral economics, data science, and evidence from research centers; and moving from sequential "waterfall" processes to more iterative approaches like prototyping. The Open Policy Making team works to embed these reforms and share best practices across government.

Key findings from public services and transportation change practitioner grou...Association for Project Management
Simon Williams presented on three change practitioner groups - public services, transport, and utilities - operating in constrained and regulated environments. Each group identified challenges specific to their sector, such as political complexity, regulatory environments, and rising customer expectations. The public services group published a report highlighting the need for strong leadership, clear communication, and stakeholder engagement. The transport group's report recommended collectively sharing best practices. The utilities group is surveying members' change approaches. Williams concluded that positive change is challenging in highly regulated sectors due to long lead times, complex stakeholders, and public scrutiny.Gregynog 15 june 2011 wheel

The document proposes a Core Public Policy Vocabulary (CPPV) to standardize public policy documentation and foster collaboration across government agencies. It presents a conceptual data model for the CPPV containing classes like GuidingFramework, Objectives, Programs, Regulations, and Stakeholders. The CPPV is based on existing ISA core vocabularies and aims to address semantic challenges in comparing and relating policies. An open policy demonstrator portal has been created to showcase applications of the linked, standardized policy representation. Further development includes expert reviews, pilots within policy domains, and demonstators for interoperability scenarios.

Joint ventures and strategic alliances allow companies to grow in four ways: organic growth, strategic alliances, joint ventures, and mergers/acquisitions. Strategic alliances involve partnerships where organizations remain independent while aligning long-term goals for mutual benefit. Joint ventures form a new legal entity governed by partnership law, where parties contribute to a specific venture for a set time period and scope. While similar, strategic alliances are generally less formal than joint ventures and allow for more flexibility.

This report analyzes opportunities for shared services between Bombala Council, Cooma-Monaro Shire Council, and Snowy River Shire Council. It finds that while resource sharing provides limited benefits, centralized services and joint ventures can achieve greater efficiencies through economies of scale. The report examines the Western Border Councils Alliance as a case study, noting it has realized over $5.7 million in savings through regional collaboration. The report conducts a high-level financial analysis of two shared service options - water/wastewater services and centralized corporate services - finding they could result in efficiency dividends of up to 15% through reduced staffing costs and other savings. It recommends Bombala, Cooma-Monaro
Stock Sheet
The document discusses stock sheets, which are used to keep records of items in stock including price, description, and reference number. Most stock sheets also track the minimum and actual quantities to determine when to reorder items. Information is typically entered manually, though lookups and macros can pull details from other documents. Formulas like IF statements are used to automatically populate the reorder section. Stock sheets are stored on computer systems and used by administrative staff to monitor product levels.
Strategic Alliances A Practitioners Approach
The document discusses strategic alliances and provides a framework for negotiating, developing, and managing strategic alliances. The framework consists of five phases: 1) identify and select partner, 2) structure and negotiate deal, 3) plan implementation, 4) execute, and 5) strategic planning. Key aspects of each phase are discussed such as cultural and strategic compatibility in partner selection, defining alliance scope and objectives in negotiations, and protecting majority and minority rights in the legal agreement.
Laura Ashley & FedEX: Strategic Alliance
Laura Ashley faced problems with its distribution system including stock outs, outdated systems, and inefficient product flows. It formed a strategic alliance with Federal Express to replace its distribution systems. Federal Express would manage all aspects of Laura Ashley's distribution using its logistics expertise and infrastructure. This would help both companies - Laura Ashley would gain new systems and distribution capabilities, while Federal Express would enter the clothing business and expand into Europe. However, the companies needed to address concerns about the contract length, financial arrangements, leadership stability, and contract terms.
Alliance Lifecycle Framework
This alliance lifecycle framework presentation was created as a tool to foster conversation and provide context on some of the questions to consider as you assess the importance and structure of a formal alliance lifecycle framework. I created this for a friend working with one of the leading Canadian consulting firms without a current formal strategy, framework or program in place for the development and management of IT channel business partner programs and relationships.
Conceptual Framework Of Mergers & Acquisitions-B.V.Raghunandan
The document discusses conceptual frameworks related to mergers, acquisitions, and corporate restructuring. It outlines different types of deals and categorizes motives into strategic, financial, and organizational motives. Strategic motives include growth, competition, synergies, and diversification. Financial motives include investment of funds and increasing shareholder value. Organizational motives include management compulsions and becoming a multinational corporation. Theories discussed include efficiency, information and signaling, market power, taxes, and agency problems. Different types of synergies from mergers like financial, operating, and managerial synergies are also outlined.

Market entry strategy
Analysys Mason has developed a systematic approach to creating effective market entry strategies. The approach involves comprehensive analysis of the market, competitors, regulations and internal assets. It results in a clear strategy that establishes objectives, positioning, target segments and strategic directions. Analysys Mason then develops detailed tactical plans covering pricing, branding, sales, products and launch phasing to enable efficient implementation and control market introduction. The structured process and coordination between strategy, business planning and technical teams helps ensure a coordinated market entry.
Market entry strategy
The document outlines a market entry strategy framework comprised of four phases: market assessment, business case development, implementation roadmap, and go live. The market assessment phase involves research to understand regulations, customers, competitors, distribution channels, and the client's position. The business case development formalizes this to assess market attractiveness, ease of entry, potential partners, and ability to execute. The implementation roadmap establishes cooperation agreements and entry plans. The go live phase supports organizational structure and performance monitoring upon market entry.
Foreign market entry strategies
The document discusses various factors and strategies for foreign market entry decisions faced by firms. It covers evaluating which markets to enter based on size, growth rates, and product suitability. It also discusses timing of entry, scale of entry, and different modes of entry including exporting, contractual agreements like licensing and franchising, turnkey projects, contract manufacturing, management contracting, strategic alliances, joint ventures, consortia, and wholly owned subsidiaries. The optimal choice depends on a firm's needs around control, investment, risks, and location-specific advantages.
Merger and acquisition ppt
A merger occurs when one company purchases another company of a similar size, transferring ownership and control to form a single new company. Companies usually merge when they feel they can accomplish more together than separately. There are three main types of mergers: horizontal, vertical, and conglomerate. Mergers can take place through purchasing assets, purchasing common shares, exchanging shares for assets, or exchanging shares for shares. Reasons for mergers include increasing market share, achieving economies of scale, diversifying risk, and pursuing future goals or expansion of business.

The University of Glasgow Library developed a strategy to deliver mobile services over multiple phases.
Phase 1 involved developing a mobile catalogue, implementing QR codes, testing instant messaging and e-books, and conducting user surveys. Based on survey findings that most use mobile internet for email, social media and browsing, the top requested services were searching articles, checking out books and reading e-books.
Phase 2 will focus on improving the mobile website, expanding access to e-resources beyond e-books, using QR codes in physical locations, teaching digital skills, and utilizing mobile devices to improve workflows. The strategy is being implemented and promoted in phases based on user research.SLIC FE 2011Tom MacMaster

Innovation with reducing budgets British LibraryScottish Library & Information Council (SLIC), CILIP in Scotland (CILIPS)
The British Library is facing significant budget cuts while still aiming to fulfill its mission of enabling access and supporting research. This has required developing new digitization and funding models, moving from selective "boutique" digitization to larger-scale "mass digitization" projects pursued through public/private partnerships. Examples discussed include newspaper digitization through a partnership with Brightsolid and book digitization through agreements with Microsoft and Google. While innovative approaches are needed, traditional efficiency improvements also remain important to make progress despite budget challenges.mlibrary project Napier University

The document discusses the University of Glasgow's experiments with demand-driven acquisition (DDA) models for ebooks. It implemented a small patron-driven acquisition trial through an ebook aggregator, spending a limited amount on about 1500 ebook titles over 4 months. Usage was high, with 10% of titles receiving 10 or more access and the average cost per used title being £55.96. Only 10% of titles saw no repeat use after initial purchase. The university is considering further DDA trials and evaluating different models to help build its ebook collection in a responsible way while supporting user needs.Nora Dale - Growing Knowledge: The evolution of research

The document outlines three deliverables for a project: 1) Install a prototype digital research space, 2) Design and build user interfaces and workstation arrays demonstrating a vision for multimedia digital research, 3) Evaluate user experiences in the technology-rich environment. It then summarizes findings from evaluating the prototype space, including that researchers want advanced search functionality and better organization of research papers, and that Wi-Fi access and using their own devices were important to users. The recommendation is to focus on greater remote access to resources, advanced search and reference tools, and training to facilitate their use while acknowledging a role in the full digital research process beyond content provision.More from Scottish Library & Information Council (SLIC), CILIP in Scotland (CILIPS) (20)
