Chapter 6 - Exploring Business Intelligence ,

Hye , assalamualaikum

As we all know , information is everywhere in an organization. Because of that , employees must be able to obtain and analyze the many different levels , formats , and granularities of organizational information to make decisions.

Then, the value of transactional and analytical information. Transactional information means we gain info maybe from employee for example airline ticket , sales receipt , while analytical information means we gain  from management, example , product statistic.

All of this related toward each other :)

                    Besides that , the value of timely information consist of :

1. real time information - immediate , up to date
2. real time system - provides real time information in response to query request

For example , ATM, we draw cash , after that, we got a slip. So , we will get an info on how many balance that we had.

Morever , business decisions are only as good as the quality of the information use to make decisions.

Good decision lead to the organizational objective.

Four primary sources of low quantity information include :

1. online customer intentionally enter inaccurate information to protect their privacy
2. information from different systems have different entry standards and formats
3. call center operators enter abbreviated or erroneous information by accident or to save time
4. third party and external information contains inconsistencies, inaccuracies, and errors

Chapter 5 - Organizational Structures that Support Strategic Initiatives

Assalamualaikum .

From this chapter , i think in order to create competitive advantage , employee must work together to develop strategic advantages. Ethics and security are two fundamental building blocks that organizations must base their business upon. While IT is a relatively new functional area formly around 40 years.

Recent IT - related strategic positions:

• Chief  Information Officer (CIO)
• Chief Technology Officer (CTO)
• Chief Security Officer ( CSO)
• Chief Privacy Officer (CPO)
• Chief knowledge Office (CKO)

All position has their own responsibility that support initiative advantage.

What concerns CIOs the most ? Look here ~~

Business process expertise in functional areas such as marketing, accounting and sales.

Each department have the technological expertise. They fight each other in order to gain something.

However ~~

Ethics and security are two fundamental building blocks that organization must base their businesses on to be successful. For example, student change their SPM's result.

Next , protecting intellectual assets. Organizational information is intellectual capital , it must be protected.

Information security is the protection of information from accidental or intentional misuse by persons inside or outside an organization.

That's all , thank youu :)

Chapter 4 - Measuring the Success of Strategic Intiatives

Hye readers , assalamualaikum

Did you know what is metrics ? Metrics are detailed measures that fied KPIs. Metrics has IT metric which is efficiency and effectiveness. Effeciency IT means measures the performance of the IT system while Effectiveness means measures the impact It has on business processes and activities including customer satisfaction , conversion rates, and sell - through increases.

Next is benchmarking , from what i learned , benchmarking is a process of continuously measuring system results, performance and identifying steps and procedures to improve system performance.

Here , we can compare efficiency IT and effectiveness IT metrics for government initiatives :

AND

The interrelationships between efficiency and effectiveness.

if the cost limited , we have to be smart to choose PLC of our organization.

Metrics for measuring and managing initiatives include :

• website metrics
• supply chain management (SCM) metrics
• customer relationship management (CRM) metrics
• business process reengineering (BPR) metrics
• Enterprise resource planning (ERP) metrics

        All this would be apply for measuring and managing initiatives in order to gain a  better result.

CHAPTER 3 - STRATEGIC INITIATIVES FOR IMPLEMENTING COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES

Here  we meet again and hye my beloved readers , Assalamualaikum :)

*answer it , wajibb* ^_^

Last week , i have learn about Strategic Intiative for Implementing Competitive Advantages in chapter 3.

This chapter is quite interesting because i learned about strategy. Strategy will drive us to success. 

 Organization can undertake high - profile strategic initiatives including :

1. Supply Chain Management (SCM)
2. Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
3. Business process reengineering (BPR)
4. Enterprise resource planning (ERP)

For me SCM enable to decrease the power of its buyers, increase its own supplier , increase switching costs to reduce threat of substitute products or services , create entry barriers and increase efficiencies while seeking a competitive advantages through cost leadership toward organization.

Second is CRM . I think CRM really important in our daily life. It is because it related with relationship. If we can build a good relationship , it is really good. CRM is a strategy , not just technology. From there , we can know the way to threat customer , types of customer , behavior , design individual customer marketing campaign and so on.

Thirdly is Business Process Reengineering. It is a standardized set of activities that accomplish a specific task such as processing customer's order. If i give you two example Unifi VS Streamyx , what will you choose , of course Unifi right. I think unifi is the best one because of their speed. that's it

Lastly ERP 'Enterprise'. I think this is the best strategy because we can collect data from various organization , correlates the data , generating and enterprise wide view. Put on one folder for all organization. So it will save time. Get it ? :)

That's all my comment for this chapter , see you next entry . Tata <3 :)
