Hi Ally, E-procurement is all the jazz about buying using IT , otherwise clever ways of purchasing and stuff . Linking to suppliers via IT, websites etc. Searching online as well to look for markets , prices , products quality and to bring them in at most convenient time and price in the most efficient way (E-Procurement!) . In other ways, pimped-up backward vertical integration at best!!! Going to market/suppliers using IT
If you have seen the December 2016 P3 exam, would you be able to confirm the NPV amount? Thanks
NPV was positive 494 or 474 cant remember , I am sure you can forgive me for forgetting! When the discount factors were applied to both benefits and costs, the benefits were more, hence viable and doable project!
Question 1, PP co, was the Dog on BCG Matrix, I just wanted to point out that , whilst it was ok to say divest as future strategy, the Dog could contribute to economies of scale, and improving the synergistic element of an acquired company, seeing it was simlar industry to an existing entity in the MKI group. Another accusation of BCG is that it does not highlight profitability. Dogs can have low market shares but could be well profitable and contributing to shareholder wealth, hence acceptable by shareholders
You cannot throw away a Dog without as much as a thought 🙂
