The Value Chain concept, first described by Dr. Michael Porter in 1985, captures a series of actions that a firm—in a specific industry—accomplishes to produce a valuable product or service for the market. The Value Chain notion visualizes the process view of an organization, perceiving a manufacturing or service organization as a system comprised of subsystems of inputs, transformation processes, and outputs.
This deck deliberates on the primary and secondary activities that comprise the Porter's Value Chain Model and provides a detailed account on how to implement and analyze it across industries in an effective way. The 3 key phases of the Value Chain Analysis (VCA) approach include:
