OSSCube: Deciding on the Levers of Growth
內容大綱
In November 2015, the co-founders of OSSCube Solutions Ltd., an Indian-based information technology (IT) solution provider, faced the risk of shrinking and uncertain profits if they continued with their open source solution strategy. Changing to non-open-source technology would entail re-positioning the company in the minds of employees and customers. The re-positioning could lead to a more stable revenue stream and open up access to larger customers. However, it could also attract severe competitive retaliation and cause the company to lose clients and employees. The challenge of evolving the organization from a technology focus to a customer focus was further complicated by an increasing trend for customers to rationalize their IT vendor list. The co-founders needed to decide whether to expand their business scope now or postpone the decision. If they went ahead now, they needed to address the timing and sequence of the change.
