Techno Systems Corporation: Benchmarking Sourcing (Abridged)
內容大綱
Techno Systems, an industry leader in providing electronic kit assemblies for customized commercial applications and government, is currently undergoing a transition from a heavy government orientation to a more commercial customer base. A director of sourcing has been asked to prepare a review of the sourcing function by using benchmarking. She is considering how to effectively implement a benchmarking effort that would contribute to the sourcing review. Based upon her presentation, the upper management will determine the need for strategy development in the sourcing department. In essence, she is determining the hierarchical placement of the sourcing department for the future. This case affords the student an opportunity to examine sourcing in relation to operations strategy and to investigate benchmarking practices. It includes information compiled from benchmark studies conducted by the Center for Advanced Purchasing Studies (CAPS) and provides an insight into gated benchmarking.
