Exhibit 2 - 1 Focusing on Strategy and Performance

E-business strategy flows from the firm’s environmental analysis.


From Strategy to Electronic Strategy

• Most strategic plans explain the rationale for the chosen objectives and strategies. There are four appropriate types of rationale:

1. Strategic justification shows how the strategy fits with the firm’s overall mission and business objectives,

2. Operational justification identifies and quantifies the specific process improvements that will result from the strategy,

3. Technical justification shows how the technology will fit and provide synergy with current information technology capabilities,

4. Financial justification examines cost/benefit analysis and uses standard measures (ROI, NPV).


Business Models

• A business model is a method for long term survival and a value proposition for partners, customers and revenue

• E-business models include the use of information technology to achieve long term goals.

• Firm selects one or more models as strategies to accomplish enterprise goals.


E-Business Models

• The direct connection with information technology makes a business model an e-business model:

E-Business Model = Business Model

+ Information Technology

• E-business model: method by which the organization sustains itself in the long term using information technology, which includes its value proposition for partners and customers as well as its revenue streams.
