This book was released on 1997-06-01 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis examines small business' perception of utilizing Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) as a means to conduct business. The general concept and history of EDI is discussed along with a synopsis of current Government EDI systems in use. The results of two surveys are analyzed to provide an insight on the effect the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act is having on small business' opportunity to obtain Government Contracts. Additionally, interviews were conducted with several Government personnel to get their opinions on the progress of EDI in the workplace. The major conclusion drawn is that the majority of small businesses are willing to utilize EDI as a means to conduct business. But in its current form (i.e. FACNET) small businesses find it difficult to use and too expensive. The need to use a simpler and more cost-effective means is necessary to ensure that all small businesses have the opportunity to compete for Government contracts without cutting into their profit margins.

Download or read book Implementing Electronic Data Interchange EDI with Small Business Suppliers in the Pre award Acquisition Process written by Robert B. Sergeson and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis examines the implementation of electronic data interchange (EDI) with small business suppliers in the pre-award acquisition process. The general history and concept of EDI is discussed along with the pre- award acquisition process. The results of a small business survey are analyzed to provide insight on the barriers and impediments to implementing EDI with small business concerns. Additionally, interviews and discussions with major corporations were conducted to identify common lessons learned by these corporations in their efforts to implement EDI with their small business supplier base. The major conclusion drawn is that DoD can successfully implement EDI with its small business supplier base in the preaward acquisition process. It was determined that the following key factors are crucial to successful implementation of EDI with small business: (1) provide effective training; (2) specifically direct grant funding to the Procurement Technical Assistance Centers; (3) require the Small Business Administration to aggressively sponsor and implement EDI training; (4) draft legislation to modify or eliminate restrictive laws and regulations; and (5) foster the use of Value-Added Networks, Trading Partner Agreements, and EDI Service Bureaus. These efforts would provide the basic infrastructure to enable DoD to train, nurture, and help problem solve with small businesses once DoD becomes totally reliant upon EDI.

This book was released on 2021-06-25 with total page 1496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Running a small business provides opportunity for greater success, increased growth, and potentially the chance to move to the global business arena, yet also much more risk. Small businesses not only have less employment, but also less annual revenue than a regular-sized business. With the growth of large corporations and chain businesses, it has become harder to maintain the survival of a small business. The COVID-19 pandemic has also brought more pressure onto the already unsteady survival of small businesses, due to forced closures, decreased agility, fewer technological innovations, and smaller customer bases. The Research Anthology on Small Business Strategies for Success and Survival offers current strategies for small businesses that can be utilized in order to maintain equal footing during challenging times. With the proper strategies available to small business owners, small businesses could not only survive, but also excel despite the environment that surrounds them. Covering topics including decision management, new supportive technologies, sustainable development, and micro-financing, this text is ideal for small business owners, entrepreneurs, startup companies, family-owned and operated businesses, restaurateurs, local retailers, managers, executives, academicians, researchers, and students.
