Study Of Strategic Cost Management Based On Value Nets

With the development of information technology and appearance of new industry, operational circumstance and competition model that enterprise faces have changed greatly, the competitions between enterprises become more severe, and then Value nets appear. Value nets put emphasis on both adding service value and improving cost usage, so value nets show big advantage in this competitive era. Now the competitions between enterprises in fact are based on the cost, which determines the existence and development of the companies. External change provides higher demands to corporation cost control and management, compels that to contrast good internal circumstance which is propitious to the cost continuance reduce, depending on market requirement and management situation and in direction of market competition price and in terms of long-range benefit. In view of above, traditional cost method already can't adapt the request of corporations, SCM (strategic cost management) becomes the effective approach. Since the eighties of last century, SCM accepted by the academic circles of western countries, and be applied to many enterprises. But the theory is just being introduced and tested in some enterprises in China.Based on the former achievement, this thesis adopts specification research approach intends to construct a new SCM model, which in accordance with the new economic environment, and prove the probability with a case. This model provides a theoretic support for the enterprise to obtain longtime competitive advantage, and hoped to be used by more companies. Through the summarize of former research, this thesis put forward the necessity of structuring this model, and then based on the study of the purpose, principle and the aid step, to complete the basement of the structuring, finally based on this to make up the new SCM model.This new SCM model takes the idea of value nets and the "Headstream Management" ideology in Target Cost into reference. Through the analysis of the environments to define value orientation, and then distinguish the core competencies based on the function cost analysis of value engineering, disconnect the high cost-low efficiency value chains, construct low cost-high efficiency value nets. And then through the checking mechanism to achieve continuous improve. Finally making contribution for the companies to achieve and maintain longtime competitive advantages.
