    Here I came to in my opinion, to one of the most important threats that SME is facing. The declining dependency of the musicians on the label. Some of big names such us Madona, U2, Shakira and lot of others*5 signed comprehensive deals with live nation what emerged a new competition in the field of concerts and venues promoters. The market had emerged for musicians also another alternative to the labels. Players such us VibeDec, SounDay etc… are providing services which allowed musicians to manage their own careers. Has SME still the strong power to keep interest of musicians?…

    In the present time, while the world is sheltered of the creepy financial crisis, SMEs is one of the main sectors stimulating the economy out of the recession. In the UK economy, they accounted for 99% of all enterprises and provide over 59% of private sector employment (BERR, 2008). Meanwhile, the globalization of the markets requires the revolution of companies to survive, even SMEs have to introduce new products of higher quality and gain competitive advantage of new technology. Innovation is a difficult undertaking, especially for businesses with small experience and limited resources (Herstatt et al. 2008). Tiwari and Buse (2007) recognise that, Innovative ideas and products are playing increasingly important role responding to the price oriented competition from low-cost producers from emerging economies, on home turf and abroad. On this crucial score, however, SMEs often find themselves confronted with a number of barriers to innovation which hinder their capacity to invent and successfully commercialize new products, services or processes, see e.g. Herstatt et al. (2008).…

    Strategic Sourcing

    • 3460 Words
    • 14 Pages

    Strategic sourcing is critical for firms practicing the principles of supply chain management. It specifically deals with managing the supply base in an effective manner by identifying and selecting suppliers for strategic long-term partnerships, involving in supplier development initiatives by effectively allocating resources to enhance supplier performance, providing benchmarks and continuous feedback to suppliers, and in some cases involving in supplier pruning activities. Currently, the methodologies in practice for strategic sourcing have mostly been subjective in nature with few objective decision models focused at supplier evaluation, which are also not devoid of limitations. This paper proposes an objective framework for effective supplier sourcing, which considers multiple strategic and operational factors in the evaluation process. Suppliers are categorized into groups based on performance, which assists managers in identifying candidates for strategic long-term partnerships, supplier development programs, and pruning. In addition, this research investigates the differences among supplier groups in proposing possible improvement strategies for ineffectively performing suppliers. Also, we demonstrate the methodological richness of our framework when compared to some of the traditional methods proposed and utilized for supplier evaluation purposes. The supplier data utilized in the study is obtained from a large multinational corporation in the telecommunications industry.…
