Summary:

In this data challenge, students are presented with background information about the telecom industry and a telecom company operating in India. The information consists of market trends in terms of demand and price, industry value chain, regulatory environment, and the company value chain. The value chain information tells students about how valuable a process or company is in the eyes of the customer as well as whether the company is able to effectively extract value from the process.It is not a straightforward exercise to determine the product features, process characteristics, and service elements that are perceived as valuable to command price premium; which process design elements contribute to such value; and how the cost changes with additions or modifications of such features. Therefore, companies tend to synthesize decision-making data from a composite of qualitative and quantitative information. Students can appreciate this challenge better if they are familiar with the basics of the process of strategy making and understand core competences, the role of regulation or competition, typical organizational functions, and cost-volume-profit relations in alternate business designs. In this data challenge, students will first perform value chain analysis (VCA)--evaluate the in-house value chain of a telecom company and establish the need for outsourcing or restructuring portions of its existing value chain (set in early 2020). Then, students will review what it takes for the company to participate in other lucrative and value-adding parts of the industry value chain (set in late 2022).
