3-52 Executional Cost Drivers: Internet Retailer (20 min)
The example of an internet retailer such as Bikes.com is a good
example of the type of firm that must pay close attention to
executional cost drivers. The reason is that its success depends on
execution, execution. The fall off in sales growth could be an
indication of problems in customer sales returns, that is customer
satisfaction and loyalty. Bikes.com can review sales records to
investigate.
Specific executional steps that Bikes.com can take include
looking for possible improvements in the purchase and stocking of
merchandise and the shipping of customer orders – the upstream and
downstream activities that must work smoothly to get the orders to
the customers quickly and accurately. Also, Bikes.com should
consider the work flow in the company. Can it be streamlined? Are
there non-value-adding activities that can be eliminated? What are
the bottlenecks, if any, that slow the process of accurately filling a
customer’s order? Also, are employees aware of the importance of
executional issues? Are the employees working together to achieve
effective cost management can lower the costs of operation and
speed the arrival of profits.

3-53 Structural Cost Drivers (25 min)
Case A: A key structural issue for Food Fare is complexity. As the
menu has changed, so will costs and service. More complexity
means higher food purchasing costs, higher operating costs, and
more complex operations. This will require new types of training for
technology to streamline the process of order taking and order filling
are likely to be necessary. Scale might also be an important issue in
this case – how large must each restaurant become, and how many
restaurants must the chain have in order to justify the increased
purchasing and stocking costs, and the new training and technology
costs?
Case B: A key issue in this case is the speed with which Gilman can
provide customer service. The speed of service provides value to the
customer and also increases profitability. In order to increase the
speed of service, Gilman needs effective communication and
coordination among the service teams. This is probably being
accomplished now by cell phone. Gilman can research new and
more effective ways to accomplish this, perhaps using hand-held
internet access devices, iphones, or other modem-equipped devices.
The advantage of computer-based access is that computer-based
demand and profitability – in order to better understand which
services and which types of customers are most profitable.
