Inhaltsangabe

Cut costs and control inventory an adaptive business network
This book introduces the adaptive business network, a new method of business interaction that offers the ability to respond swiftly to changing market conditions, increase revenue growth, and lower overall cost. In Adapt or Die, the experts from SAP provide a thought-provoking road map to a new business world in which companies are linked together by uniform business processes and standardized software (uniform business processes and standardized software leaves me the impression of being rigid and inflexible, which is contrary to what were trying to say in the book). An adaptive business network allows companies to more precisely control inventory, quickly add or drop trading partners, and produce products and services that mirror actual customer demand.
Adapt or Die explores all the vital aspects of the adaptive business network, including:
* The benefits for your business
* Ways to prepare your company
* Implementing the adaptive business network in four steps
* Its application to specific industries
* The changes the adaptive business network will bring to the future of business

Aus dem Klappentext

In the 21st century, business moves at an ever-faster pace. Communication is cheap and fast, and consumer expectations are higher than ever. It's your ability to sense and respond to shifting demands, especially in your supply chain, that will give your company a competitive edge well into the future. Tomorrow's most successful businesses will deliver exactly what customers want right when they want it without spending a fortune on inventory.
 
Adapt or Die describes the perfect solution to attain new levels of business flexibility and efficiency - the adaptive business network. The adaptive business network will streamline your supply chain and improve your customer service by creating a fast and efficient web of communication among all the participants in the supply chain and the customer.
 
Based on years of research by the supply chain experts at SAP, the adaptive business network allows businesses to respond swiftly to changing market conditions, increase opportunities for revenue growth, and lower costs for all participating companies. The adaptive business network is not a top-down exercise. Both within a company and between companies, it emphasizes peer-to-peer communication rather than proclamations from on high.
 
Adapt or Die explains everything executives and managers need to know to move to an adaptive business network. It provides a vision and goals for developing your adaptive business network and outlines the roles different types of companies will play. The adaptive business network provides benefits for almost any company. Examples are included that highlight the benefits of the adaptive business network in the retail, manufacturing and service industries.
 
Today's businesses can either Adapt or Die, so make the right choice and let this book be your road map to success.
 
SAP is the world's third largest software company and the leading provider of inter-enterprise software solutions. Over half of the world's top 500 companies rely on SAP software to increase their competitiveness and efficiency.
