Industry History (1/2) • Start of the industry: 1975. MITS Altair 8080 – First personal computer • Hits maturity by the mid-1990s
Industry History (2/2) • New developments beginning with late-1990s: • Rapid decline in PC prices • Consequently decrease in gross profit margins • Acceleration in the product cycle • Faster depreciation of components and finished good inventories • Success of direct-sales/build-to-order strategy • Remodeling of the value chain • Mergers and Acquisitions • HP/Compaq, Lenovo/IBM
Business Models • Big Box • Direct • White Box
Big Box Model • Traditional approach, through “brick and mortar” retailers and own stores • Distributors purchase assembled, ready-to-use computers • Allows consumers to touch and feel the product • Higher cost due to high inventories, longer distribution channel • Profit margin eroded
Direct Model • Take customized orders directly from end consumers • Assemble systems as orders come in • Ship the product direct to customers • More efficient, JIT inventory system • Lower costs due both to inventory savings and distribution by-passing • Savings are passed to customers
White Box Model • Combination of Big Box and Direct Sales Strategies • Own distribution facilities • Allows consumers to customize their products while giving them a phisical location to purchase • Highly fragmented, estimated to more than 500 unbranded PC makers • Often sell directly to small businesses looking for a significant price break rather than a big brand machine.
