IST 349 Chapter 3 Concepts Describe Porter’s Competitive Forces Model (Figure 3.1) The most widely used model for understanding competitive forces. In this model, five competitive forces shape the fate of the firm: Traditional competitors – are the competitors you share the market space with. They are continuously striving for new products and more efficiency, and are attempting to attract t new customers to switch to their brand. New market entrants – new companies have several possible advantages. They are not locked into old plants and equipment. They can hire younger workers who may be less expensive and more innovative. Substitute products and services – there are substitutes that your customers might use if your prices get too high. The more substitute products in your industry, the lower your profit margin will be. Customers – a company must be able to attract and retain customers. The power of the customer grows if they can easily switch to a competitor or if they know the price of all competitor’s product instantly. Suppliers – the more suppliers a firm has, the greater control it can exercise over price, quality, and delivery schedules. Describe each of the four following generic strategies for dealing with competitive forces: Low-cost leadership – obtain the lowest operational costs and the lowest prices. WalMart Product differentiation – customize and personalize products and services to fit individual customers. Nike Focus on market niche –Serve a narrow target market better than competitors. Hilton Hotel Strengthen customer and supplier intimacy – Tighten contacts with suppliers and develop intimacy with customers. Amazon

35. For problem 35, you can use the intercepts you’re given to get to the point , because you know that if you solved for each of the values you would end up with the horizontal intercepts given to you in the problem. The problem tells you at what intercepts has what roots of multiplicity to give a degree of 5, which is why is squared, and is cubed. To solve for , (your stretch factor, in this case,), you can plug the point your given, (in this case it’s (2,15)) into your equation: , to solve for . 37. 39. 41. 43. 45. 47. 49. 51.

Conditional Distributions The more interesting questions are contingent. We’d like to know, for example, what percentage of second-class passengers survived and how that compares with the survival rate for third-class passengers. It’s also more interesting to ask whether the chance of surviving the Titanic sinking depended on ticket class. To do that, we look at the row percentages: Second Third Crew Alive 203 28.6% 118 16.6% 178 25.0% 212 29.8% 711 100% Dead 122 8.2% 167 11.2% 528 35.4% 673 45.2% 1490 100% By focusing on each row separately, we see the distribution of class under the condition of surviving or not. The sum of the percentages of each row is 100%, and we divide that up by ticket class.

an unusual degree of religious toleration and democratic control. Earnest and devout Quakers, in particular, made a compassionate contribution to human freedom out of all proportion to their numbers. Desirable land was more easily acquired in the middle colonies than in New England or in the tidewater South. One result was that a considerable amount of economic and social democracy prevailed, though less so in aristocratic New York. Modern-minded Benjamin Franklin, often regarded as the most representative American personality of his era, was a child of the middle colonies. Although it is true that Franklin was born a Yankee in puritanical Boston, he entered Philadelphia as a in 1720 with a loaf of bread under each arm and immediately found a congenial home in the urbane, open atmosphere of what was then North America's biggest city. One Pennsylvanian later boasted that Franklin “came to life at seventeen, in Philadelphia.” By the time Franklin arrived in the City of Brotherly Love, the American colonies were themselves “coming to life.” Population was growing robustly. Transportation and communication were gradually improving. The British, for the most part, continued their hands-off policies, leaving the colonists to fashion their own local governments, run their own churches, and develop networks of intercolonial trade. As people and products crisscrossed the colonies with increasing frequency and in increasing volume, Americans began to realize that—far removed from Mother England—they were not merely surviving, but truly thriving. Varying Viewpoints: Europeanizing America or Americanizing Europe? The history of discovery and colonization raises perhaps the most fundamental question about all American history. Should it be understood as the extension of European civilization into the two continents of the New World or as the gradual development of uniquely “American” cultures? An older school of thought tended to emphasize the Europeanization of America. Historians of that persuasion paid close attention to the situation in Europe, particularly England and Spain, in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. They also focused on the exportation of the values and institutions of the mother countries to the new lands in the western sea. Although some historians also examined the transforming effect of America on Europe, this approach, too, remained essentially

4.B1.0 Solicitations Should be Clear, Concise and Consistent All solicitations regardless of format (phone quote, RFQ, IFB, RFP) must clearly state the needs or business requirements of the department in order for a supplier to weigh the risks and price the purchase. Concise, logical wording in precise terms, stating the supplier’s obligations as well as those of the department should be used. Use clear, simple English as much as possible. The words “shall” and “must” identify mandatory requirements within a solicitation. The words “should” and “may” identify optional or desired requirements sometimes referred to as desirable requirements. 4.B1.1 Avoid Writing Restrictive Requirements Requirements restricting the bidding to a single supplier may not be included in competitive acquisitions. Avoid restrictive requirements by: Including only essential requirements Avoiding restrictive or impractical requirements such as those that are nonessential or obsolete Carefully checking delivery requirements to ensure the turnaround time from supplier’s receipt of order to delivery is not too restrictive or limiting Defining requirements to promote and encourage bidders to bid standard items or standard service where possible Not specifying a particular brand name, product or a feature of a product that is peculiar restrictive to one manufacturer, except for reference purposes. Try to use words like equal and comparable when a brand, model, or style is specified. Not dictating detailed design solutions prematurely Try using Performance vs. Designed based requirements. Allowing sufficient time from the solicitation mail release date to the bid due date or the first key action date to provide suppliers time to review and consider the requirements, prepare a response, and mail the response back

Pulaski County is home to a large number of natural springs. Boiling Spring, located in the Gasconade River, with an average flow of 68 million gallons per day, is included among the 15 largest springs in Missouri. Eighteen springs located in Pulaski County are significant enough to have had flow studies done by the Missouri Department of Natural Resources. These include: Ozark Spring – 6, 000 gpd Falling Spring – 1,360,000 gpd Land Spring – 116,000 gpd Bartlett Mill Spring – 10,100,000 gpd Creasy Spring – 15,200,000 gpd Schlicht Spring – 594,000 gpd Murphy Eddy Spring – 646,000 gpd Roubidoux Spring – 37,700,000 gpd Miller Spring – 13,600,000 gpd Prewett Spring – 11,000,000 gpd Stone Mill Spring – 18,700,00 gpd Hale Cemetery Spring – 6,000 gpd Shanghai Spring – 11,600,000 gpd Harrison Spring – 3,880,000 gpd Spring – 775,000 gpd Pruett Spring – 969,000 gpd Pillman Spring #1 – 7,490,000 gpd Boiling Spring – 68,000,000 gpd Most of these springs are used for watering stock, but two are used for commercial fishing. Many are unused and most are located on private property. At least six of these springs were used at one time to power grist and woolen mills, some did so halfway through the twentieth century. Miller Spring is the largest known ebb-and-flow spring in the state and the only one known to exist in the Gasconade River basin. The headquarters for the Mark Twain National Forest is located in Rolla, in neighboring Phelps County. The forest area includes 13 ranger districts and encompasses 1.5 million acres of Missouri land.

One of the early problems in immunology was trying to understand how an organism with a limited number of genes (for humans, about 20,500) could produce a million different B cell protein receptors and 10 million different T cell receptors!
