VALUE........?
VALUE is not define by the factory or by the supply
chain. VALUE is define by the customers. It depends on: Q-Quality of the product S-Service of the product P-Price of the product
VALUE CHAIN
The value chain, also known as value chain analysis, is a concept from business management that was first described and popularized by Michael Porter in his 1985 best-seller, Competitive Advantage: Creating and Sustaining Superior Performance. A Value Chain is a String of Companies or Players working together to satisfy market demand for a particular product . Value chain is critical tool to business development because it espoused the idea that, according to Kotelnikov (2001) success in digital economy is the implementation of an integrated value chain that extends across - and beyond - the enterprise. The value chain framework has been used as a powerful analysis tool for the strategic planning of an organisation for nearly two decades. The aim of the value chain framework is to maximise value creation while minimising costs.

terms. The real value of the product is assessed when the product reaches the final customer, and any assessment of that value before that moment is only something that is true in theory. Despite this limitation, analysts can effectively use the value chain model to determine the value to the final customers in a theoretical way. Use of other planning tools and techniques like Porters generic strategies, analysis of critical success factors etc. is recommended in conjunction with the value chain framework for a more comprehensive analysis of a companys strategy and planning.
