  • alue chain analysis
  • Michael Porter published the Value Chain Analysis in 1985
  • Value Chain Analysis helped identify a firm's core competencies and distinguish those
  • activities that drive competitive advantage
  • orter's strength was to condense this activity based cost analysis into a generic template consisting of five primary activities and four support activities. The nine activity groups are:
  • Primary activities:
  • 1. inbound logistics: materials handling, warehousing, inventory control, transportation;
  • 2. operations: machine operating, assembly, packaging, testing and maintenance;
  • 3. outbound logistics: order processing, warehousing, transportation and distribution;
  • 4. marketing and sales: advertising, promotion, selling, pricing, channel management;
  • 5. service: installation, servicing, spare part management;
  • Support activities:
  • 6. firm infrastructure: general management, planning, finance, legal, investor relations;
  • 7. human resource management: recruitment, education, promotion, reward systems;

  • 8. technology development: research & development, IT, product and

        process development;
  • 9. procurement: purchasing raw materials, lease properties, supplier contract negotiations.
  • its key processes or functions, Porter was able to link classical accounting to strategic capabilities by using value as a core concept,
  • a generic framework to analyse both the behaviour of costs as well as the existing and potential sources of differentiation.
