[edit] Value Chain

Its a really strong model that does show some indication where value could be added, but does not really show where costs efficiencies can be made.

Dr. Nawaid

I propose starting a separate article on SCOR, and perhaps someone else can take up DCOR. Any takers? Nshuks7 18:34, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

I suggest that someone who is more familiar with this than I adds some content about the secondary activities. Mentioning the primary activities without mentioning the secondary results in the article being a bit incomplete.


Dr.Habib

The value chain varies from a firm to another. It all depends on the capabilities of the firm in terms of resources and management. If the firm can use its resources more efficiently and applies proper controls over its operations, then it will get more advanatage by reducing cost and gaining more profit. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Freebahraini (talk • contribs) 08:06, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Value network critique overblown

I have some concerns about the value network critique; I think it is a bit overblown. I have successfully applied value chain theory to large scale IT service management. Value networks are merely unions of value chains. Where does Porter insist that the value chain sub-sections are always single sourced? Charles T. Betz 16:24, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

While I continue to have these concerns I was not the one to delete the supporting material, a move I consider borderline vandalism when not accompanied by discussion on this page. I am reverting. Charles T. Betz 16:15, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Reference spam?

I suspect that this reference has been added purely for promotional purposes. See Talk:Supply_chain_management#Reference_spam.3F -- Ronz  00:12, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

The reference was added with no change to content [1]. -- Ronz  16:03, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
I removed it again today after it was re-added to two articles as a reference with (again) no corresponding addition of content. -- SiobhanHansa 12:03, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
