...17. Give an example of a recent purchase you made where the purchase of an ongoing relationship with the seller. Discuss what the seller has (or could do better) to strengthen the relationship and increase the odds of you being a loyal customer in the future. I’m a loyal customer of Jimmy Johns restaurant they make gourmet sub sandwiches. I eat a sub almost every week. The restaurant is in a prim location that sits right of the main street that I take to get home from work. Jimmy John’s subs are large and cheap and are made very fast. The restaurant also has a drive through which makes the ordering and purchase of the subs even that much faster. If I’m home and feeling a little lazy I can even order a sub and have it delivered to my house. Jimmy John’s has covered all bases, that’s why I will continue to be a loyal customer. 18. In your own words explain several reasons why a marketing manager should consider international markets when evaluating possible opportunities. International trade is growing around the world and the obstacles of trade are going away. Also with progress in e-commerce, transportation, and communication it has become more affordable and less difficult to reach international customers.

...According to the point of view of Salgado , Zara is getting bigger and bigger and its operating system getting more and more obsolete. Thus, it gives Zara to have a comparative advantage because for a strategic perspective. Although Zara's advantage over its competitors is not so much a result of IT leverage, the sustainability of its competitive edge might be at risk due to a lack in IT investment.The current assumption for the IT investment states about 18,000 hours. The Zara's staff devoted to IT contains about 50 people divided in several departments. So we can suppose that only 10 people are devoted to POS software and so 10 people are able to handle this project. With a brief calculation, we can figure that it would take too much time to set up this project with an internal team. That is why we are prone to think that externalize would provide a more efficient solution, completely handle by an outsourced professional team. It could be a little more expensive at short and long term that is why if we choose this option we have to integrate a training system of our staff to lower the outsourced fees. An important point is that Zara has always developed its own IT solutions and if we make it through subcontractors we are not sure that it would match with Zara values or way of doing. Zara has been used to make it alone. Thus we think that some member of the IT staff could work with subcontractors in order to lower these expenses and help them to create an It solution...

...Case Study: Zara, IT for Fast Fashion EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The action recommended is to purchase a new POS system to support integration of all levels of the business from manufacturing to the customer. Because of Zara’s current solid financial position and leader in the marketplace, Zara will withstand the initial interruption of business to allow implementation of new technology due to their current solid financial position and leadership. KPIs are implemented to provide efficiencies within manufacturing, the DCs and sales to enhance the successful unique business model. ISSUE IDENTIFICATION The following are a list of issues/problems that must be addressed: • DOS system is no longer supported by Microsoft • In-house applications created by vendor • Writing applications versus buying applications • Transparency between stores • Order processing time • No formal IT process for setting budget or deciding on specific technology, investments or projects • Store managers scope of responsibility is high versus no discretion for store layout • No performance measures • No forecasting, buy and respond “on the fly” • Not high end fashion • High capital costs for DCs, manufacturing, and factories • Small batch production ENVIRONMENTAL AND ROOT CAUSE ANALYSIS 1. DOS system is no longer supported by Microsoft since 2003. Zara chooses to write all their applications in house. This matches the philosophy for...

...Case Supply Chain Management Module 1 Date: October 7th, 2009 Executive Summary My decision is to upgrade the POS terminals used by Zara to ensure the company is current with technology and compatible with the hardware vendor’s machines. January 1st 2004 is the scheduled date the POS terminals will be upgraded and running in all Zara stores around the world. The upgraded POS terminals will include more applications for store managers such as the ability to look up their own inventory balances and the inventory balances of other store locations. This factor alone is considered an advantage by store managers as it will allow each store to look up what they have been selling the most as well as avoid having to canvass the store at the end of each day. Secondly in the event Inditex’s hardware vendor upgrades their machines Zara’s POS terminals will be up to date with current technology. Key Assumptions It is anticipated Inditex’s hardware vendor may update their machines in order to stay current with technology. Inditex has no control over whether or not their hardware vendor will update their machinery therefore it would be wise to stay current with technology to avoid disrupting their largest chain of stores (Zara). Updating the POS terminals is not a guarantee of easing or rather improving current operations, however the statement of issues provided in the next section will elaborate further on why staying...

...in the stability of the POS terminal after the OS upgrade, for the reason that the POS application runs stable on the DOS-system at the time. But, after upgrading the OS and porting the POS application, there is a risk of reducing the stability of the POS application due to bugs in the application (after porting). At the same time the investment costs could be avoided if choosing to remain at the old DOS system. One advantage of upgrading the OS is the fact that the PDAs can become interconnected with other stores or the headquarters. This can increase efficiency as employees will be able to look at the inventory of other stores and search for the products which are sold-out at their own store for instance. Another advantage is that the MS DOS system became obsolete and unsupported as of 2003, which means that the POS terminal will not be compatible with the POS software, and in such manner a change in the OS is inevitable. Therefore, we are in favour of investing in a new OS, and the next question is which OS is the best option. When looking in a short-term view, Linux comes out as the best option, as of €0 license cost and only an annual maintenance fee to be paid. As Zara intends to invest in the OS for long-term period, then UNIX is the best choice for a new OS, in the first place because of the low annual maintenance fee, despite the high license costs. The tables below provide us with the costs necessary for the DOS upgrade of the POS terminals (per store)...

...Female Pirates Kristina A. Paxton (Shaarda) Excelsior College Women have been held to have particular power over the sea. There is an ancient superstition that women are not good for ships. The contradiction between woman as sea power and woman as a sea jinx is hard to understand. Women pirates however rarely brought bad luck to a ship, they were actually very good luck, and their loss to a ship often brought an end to that ships sailing days. The women that sailed the seas came from all walks of life; there were royals such as Queen Teuta of Illyria who sailed in the 200’s B.C., as well as the Irish seafaring clanswoman, Grace O’Malley, who was practically royalty in that culture in the 1500’s. There were also illegitimate daughters of maids and merchants such as Anne Bonny and Mary Read who sailed the Caribbean in the 1600’s, and finally a Chinese prostitute who controlled one of the most powerful pirate fleets the world has ever seen in the 1800’s. Female pirates were once again seen on the seas recently when a woman pirate named Sister Ping (Ching Chui Ping) smuggled Chinese immigrants to the United States and England was caught and imprisoned in 1990. The Pirate code forbade women from being on board a pirate ship, so women typically dressed and carried themselves as a man in order to become a pirate. These women pirates were truly exceptional in their determination and strength of character to seek their fortune in what was not only a dangerous way of life, but...

...Cheng Shih A Source of Autocratic Leadership in Piracy Cheng Shih A Source of Autocratic Leadership in Piracy Laura Hawkins Management 490 Laura Hawkins Management 490 Cheng Shih: Autocratic Pirate Queen Leadership is described as a process of social influence in which one person can enlist the aid and support of others in the accomplishment of a common task. A successful leader is one who can lead their followers to a predetermined goal. Cheng Shih was a very successful leader, who built up her followership and equity and even overpowered the Chinese Army. She was a ruthless leader who gained power though the fear of her followers. This kind of autocratic leadership was the reason that she was so successful. Her followers were pirates who, at any moment, could defy her authority and overpower her. Their fear of her authority was the reason that they followed her lead. Cheng Shih was born in 1775 in China (Ossian). All that much is known about her before she married Cheng I, a commander of a pirate fleet, was that she was a prostitute on a floating brothel. When she married Cheng I in 1801 the two of them began to build up their coalition of ships and sailors. The two of them adopted a son named Chang Pao. In 1807 her husband passed away, leaving her the sole leader of a pirate coalition of 400 ships and over 70,000 sailors (Harry, 2008). Cheng took the piracy and turned it into a business. She expected to gain from any venture that her followers attempted...

...Case Study #1 Cyber Security in Business Organizations CIS 500: Information Systems for Decision-Making Cyber Security in Business Organizations On December 19, 2013, the Target Corporation in Minneapolis, MN, put out a press release on their website confirming there had been a security breach allowing unauthorized database access to their Point of Sale (POS) systems, between November 27 and December 15, 2013. Target reported approximately 40 million credit/debit card accounts could have been affected. In the release, Gregg Steinhafel, chairperson, president and chief executive officer, stated the following, “Target’s first priority is preserving the trust of our guests and we have moved swiftly to address this issue, so guests can shop with confidence. We regret any inconvenience this may cause. “We take this matter very seriously and are working with law enforcement to bring those responsible to justice.” (Target Press Release, 12/19/2013). Retailers are prime targets for hackers. Why? Simply stated, Risk versus Benefit. Retail stores compile a vast amount of financial data and banking information for millions of people across the country. It could be considered a new version of bank robbery. Rather than dealing with all the planning, resources needed and danger involved with robbing one actual bank, not to mention having to split the money with cohorts, hackers can skip the bank altogether. Obtaining consumers’ banking information provides all the benefits...

AD Copyright SANS Institute Author Retains Full Rights Case Study: Critical Controls that Could Have Prevented Target Breach GIAC (GSEC) Gold Certification Author: Teri Radichel, teri@radicalsoftware.com Advisor: Stephen Northcutt Accepted: August 5th 2014 Abstract In December 2013 over 40 million credit cards were stolen from nearly 2000 Target stores by accessing data on point of sale (POS) systems. This paper will explore known issues in the Target breach and consider some of the Critical Controls that could have been used to both prevent this breach and mitigate losses. From what is known about the Target breach, there were multiple factors that led to data loss: vendors were subject to phishing attacks, network segregation was lacking, point of sale systems were vulnerable to memory scraping malware and detection strategies employed by Target failed. A possible solution for preventing and mitigating similar breaches using a defense in depth model will be presented using a multi-layered security strategy. Considerations of...

Malware is not something new to computers; it is as old as software itself. Programmers have been creating it for as long as they have been creating legitimate software. There are many different reasons as to why a programmer would create such malware. Some programmers create malware for reasons as simple as pranks and experiments or more serious and organized Internet crime malware. There are many different types of malware that will be explained later but one must know that each type of malware attacks a computer in a different way and causes different levels of damage. (What is Malware, 2014) Creating malware is a very vicious thing to do. It attacks an individual’s computer without the knowledge of the user and before they know it, personal information is stolen and the computer is damaged. What would make someone want to create such a thing? In the earlier stages of software...

...Evaluating Commercial Spoken Language Translation Software Harold SOMERS and Yuri SUGITA1 Centre for Computational Linguistics UMIST, PO Box 88 Manchester M60 1QD, England Harold.Somers@umist.ac.uk, sugita_yuri@yahoo.co.jp Abstract1 While spoken language translation remains a research goal, a crude form of it is widely available commercially for Japanese–English as a pipeline concatenation of speech-to-text recognition (SR), text-to-text translation (MT) and text-to-speech synthesis (SS). This paper proposes and illustrates an evaluation methodology for this noisy channel which tries to quantify the relative amount of degradation in translation quality due to each of the contributing modules. A small pilot experiment involving word-accuracy rate for the SR, and a fidelity evaluation for the MT and SS modules is proposed in which subjects are asked to paraphrase translated and/or synthesised sentences from a tourist’s phrasebook. Results show (as expected) that MT is the “noisiest” channel, with SS contributing least noise. The concatenation of the three channels is worse than could be predicted from the performance of each as individual tasks. 1. Introduction Evaluation is without doubt a major aspect of language engineering, including Machine Translation (MT). Although it is still true that no consensus exists regarding the best way to evaluate software, there is general agreement about some of the factors that must be taken into account when deciding what form an evaluation...
