Blown to Bits by Philip Evans and Thomas Wurster
Book Abstract
Embedded implicitly within most traditional business models is a trade-off between richness and reach -- A business could either serve a small niche market providing a highly personalized product at a premium price (richness) or it could take a commodity style approach by attempting to deliver a value package to the broadest possible market at the lowest sustainable price (reach).
The connectivity and standards of the Internet, however, removes that trade-off by making it feasible to deliver a rich
product to the greater reach
of the broader general market. As a result, the flow of information is altered within the marketplace. As that information flow varies, traditional business-to-business relationships, value chains, supply chains and other business elements are deconstructed and reconfigured in new and different ways.
Importantly, however, the reconfigured business elements will each still respond to the same strategic principles they have always worked with. What will be required, however, will be a rebalancing of strategy to take into account that the objects those business elements are going to be working with will be different once the deconstruction process has occurred.
Therefore, in the Internet era, what’s required is not so much a new set of strategic principles as a realignment of the existing principles.
