Me,
I think that in today's economy, it is no more business versus business, but instead supply chain versus inventory network. To run production network, individuals must figure out how to clearly coordinate, develop, and create business abilities. Conventional quality management practices have been and will keep on being utilized, to address large portions of these inventory network combination issues.
Cynthia,
Interesting thoughts... But what about Sony versus panasonic and apple versus samsung? These businesses are in direct competition with each other. There products or supplies are similar but they use different software and components. I would say in some businesses that there is supply chain and inventory network but in many cases there are still businesses that compete against each other.
