When and When Not to Vertically Integrate
內容大綱
This is an MIT Sloan Management Review article. Vertical integration is a risky strategy--complex, expensive, and hard to reverse. Yet, some companies jump into it without an adequate analysis of the risks. The authors developed a framework to help managers decide when it's useful to vertically integrate and when it's not. They examine four common reasons to integrate and warn managers against a number of other, spurious reasons. Their primary advice: Don't vertically integrate unless it is absolutely necessary to create or protect value.
