| strategic cost management lecture notes: Strategic Cost Management Richard Malcolm Sano Wilson, 1997 The principle aim of this collection is to give the reader some understanding of why the design of management accounting systems needs to be rethought to meet the needs of strategic management, and to indicate how this might be done. The emergence of strategic cost management is a recent phenomenon and there is, as yet, no unified view of what it is or how it will develop in the future. This book aims to clarify the meaning of SCM, or strategic management accounting (SMA) as it is also known, by defining strategy as the long-term goals and objectives of an enterprise, and the adoption of a course of action and allocation of resources necessary for carrying out those goals. It presents a variety of views, each offering a broader, more narrowed down, or more subject specific idea of the actual definition of SCM. Key differences between conventional management accounting and SCM are highlighted, and the ambiguity of cost reduction in relation to how some writers have defined SCM is discussed. |

| strategic cost management lecture notes: Lords of Strategy Walter Kiechel, 2010-03-03 Imagine, if you can, the world of business - without corporate strategy. Remarkably, fifty years ago that's the way it was. Businesses made plans, certainly, but without understanding the underlying dynamics of competition, costs, and customers. It was like trying to design a large-scale engineering project without knowing the laws of physics. But in the 1960s, four mavericks and their posses instigated a profound shift in thinking that turbocharged business as never before, with implications far beyond what even they imagined. In The Lords of Strategy, renowned business journalist and editor Walter Kiechel tells, for the first time, the story of the four men who invented corporate strategy as we know it and set in motion the modern, multibillion-dollar consulting industry: Bruce Henderson, founder of Boston Consulting Group Bill Bain, creator of Bain & Company Fred Gluck, longtime Managing Director of McKinsey & Company Michael Porter, Harvard Business School professor Providing a window into how to think about strategy today, Kiechel tells their story with novelistic flair. At times inspiring, at times nearly terrifying, this book is a revealing account of how these iconoclasts and the organizations they led revolutionized the way we think about business, changed the very soul of the corporation, and transformed the way we work. |

| strategic cost management lecture notes: Supply Chain Development for the Lean Enterprise Robin Cooper, 2017-12-06 Four questions determine whether a company is using interorganizational cost management. Does your firm set specific cost-reduction objectives for its suppliers? Does your firm help its customers and/or suppliers find ways to achieve their cost-education objectives? Does your firm take into account the profitability of its suppliers when negotiating component pricing with them? Is your firm continuously making its buyer-supplier interfaces more efficient? If the answer to any of these questions is no, your firm risks introducing products that cost too much or are not competitive. The full potential of the supply network can be realized only when the entire supply chain adopts interorganizational cost management practices. Competitive pressure has led many firms to try to increase the efficiency of supplier firms through interorganizational cost management systems, a structured approach to coordinating the activities of firms in a supplier network to reduce the total costs in the network. It is particularly important to lean enterprises for two reasons: Lean enterprises typically outsource more of the added value of their products than their mass producer counterparts. Lean enterprises usually compete more aggressively and must manage costs more effectively. Interorganizational cost management can reduce costs in three ways: through product design, through product manufacture and through cooperative approaches between buyers and suppliers to build smoother interfaces. However, more than just cost management must cross interorganizational boundaries. Suppliers are also a major source of innovation for lean enterprises. Successful supplier networks encourage every firm in the network to innovate and compete more aggressively. Read this book to learn to manage the supply chain to forge competitive advantage while reducing costs. |

| strategic cost management lecture notes: Strategic Integration Howard Thomas, 1996-05 Strategic Integration Edited by Howard Thomas and Don O’Neal University of Illinois, USA What a company might do; could do; wants to do; should do. These are the four elements of strategy which illustrate the integrative nature of strategic management. It quickly becomes apparent that the key to successful strategy is effective integration — of resources, competences, markets, opportunities, organizational structure, culture, environment, innovation, technology, processes, decisions and actions. There are four crucial areas of debate and these are covered in depth. They are:- Boards and Governance — suggests that no element of strategy is better positioned to influence strategy and its integration than senior management. Competition and Core Competences — examines their interdependence and relationship with successful strategy. Organizational Restructuring — discusses organizational types, IT and strategy, managing in a dynamic environment and measurement of strategic performance. Technology — demonstrates relationship between technological change and strategy, structure, culture, and competition; and the relationship between quality and strategy, and integrating technology and marketing strategies. Strategic Integration is concerned with building and maintaining bridges between theory and practice. On the research side it generates and tests theories related to business and management; and on the practitioner side it shows how to learn, understand, and apply tested theories in practice. |
