The document describes the SCORPIO technique, which is a continuous process that companies use to review their strategies. It involves analyzing several key areas: segmentation and targeting of customer segments; understanding the needs of the customer; organizational processes and culture; customer retention; positioning and branding; the industry or market; and product or service offerings. By considering all these elements, the SCORPIO process helps structure a company's learning and craft an effective marketing strategy tailored to real-time data and customer needs.
Lecture02 design of composite stringers ( Highway Engineering )Hossam Shafiq I
The document discusses composite steel-concrete stringers. It explains that tying a concrete slab to a steel beam with steel studs creates composite action where the concrete resists compression and the steel resists tension, forming a stronger single unit. This composite action allows for longer spans, stiffer sections, reduced deflections, increased overload capacity, enhanced lateral resistance, and potentially smaller or lighter stringers. It also describes how the effective flange width is calculated differently for interior versus exterior stringers.
The document outlines the process for designing vertical vessel foundations, including determining the vessel type, design considerations, calculation criteria, and steps. The key steps are: (1) sketching the vessel and foundation, (2) determining equipment and load data, (3) calculating gravity, wind, and seismic loads, (4) checking soil bearing capacity, sliding, and overturning, (5) structurally designing the pedestal with vertical bars, horizontal ties, and top face bars, and (6) calculating anchor forces. The purpose is to ensure the foundation can safely support the vertical vessel according to Saudi Aramco standards.
Optimization involves obtaining the best result under given circumstances. Structural optimization aims to design structural assemblies to sustain loads in the optimal way. There are three main types of structural optimization problems based on the geometric feature: sizing optimization which determines optimal member sizes; shape optimization which finds the optimal shape within a given domain; and topology optimization which finds the optimal connectivity and boundaries of a structure. Any optimization problem consists of design variables, an objective function to minimize or maximize, and constraints that must be satisfied for a feasible solution. Structural optimization examples include minimum weight design of frames and trusses subject to stress and stability constraints.

It then calculates the required strength of the tank shell, bottom plate, and anchorage to resist these overturning forces, taking into account the weight and distribution of the tank, contents, roof and supporting structures. Design requirements including allowable stresses and load factors are considered to ensure the structural integrity of the tank under the specified loading conditions.
Solid works Simulation Bolted AssemblyDon Blanchet
This document discusses using finite element analysis to simulate bolted assemblies in Solidworks Simulation. It notes that the best way is to use the bolted connection joint tool, which accounts for variables like bolt torque, thread pitch, and strength. A sample analysis is described that examines joined brackets with no bolts, bolts added at different torque levels, and a field weld repair after bolt failure. The analysis found that all static loading cases were acceptable, with no plastic deformation predicted, but the recommended 25 ft-lb torque should be used for shock and vibration loading.
The document discusses how struggle is an essential part of life and success. It provides several quotes from famous figures about how struggle builds character and strength, and how victory only comes after many struggles and defeats. Obstacles are necessary for growth, and one must continue struggling courageously despite setbacks in order to achieve their goals and find meaning in life.
Meaning:
The best alternative to a negotiated agreement (BATNA) is the course of action that a party engaged in negotiations will take if talks fail, and no agreement can be reached. A party's BATNA refers to what a party can fall back on if a negotiation proves unsuccessful. It exists when negotiations are not agreeable to the parties involved.
BATNA means “Best Alternative to a Negotiated Agreement.” This is your alternate plan when the talks start to wobble out of control. It can also be your trump card to make the deal happen to your advantage. Having your BATNA prepared can also enable you to walk away from the deal altogether.
Wherever (commercial) deals are made, negotiation takes place as well. It’s not always easy for both parties to come out feeling like the winner. In order to get to an actual win-win situation, it’s a good idea to work towards a BATNA.
BATNA stands for Best Alternative To a Negotiated Agreement. It refers to the best option a negotiating party has if negotiations fail. Knowing one's BATNA provides negotiating power by establishing a reservation point, or worst acceptable outcome. The document provides an example of a car purchase negotiation between Colin and Tom. Colin's BATNA is $7,500 based on another similar car he found, establishing the maximum he is willing to pay Tom.
Progressive Collapse Analysis of RC Framed StructuresAmit Devar
The term progressive collapse defined as the
spread of local damage, from an initiating event, from
element to element resulting, eventually, in the collapse of an
entire structure or a disproportionately large part of it is
known as progressive collapse. The progressive collapse of
structures during severe loading caused by earthquakes,
blasts, and other effects causes catastrophic loss of life. Such
collapse is typically caused by the inability of the structural
system to redistribute its loads following the failure of one or
more structural members to carry gravity loads. In reinforced
concrete (RC) structures, the loss of gravity load carrying
capacity in column.
The document discusses the key elements of negotiation based on the Harvard Method. It outlines 7 elements of negotiation: 1) BATNA, 2) Interests vs Positions, 3) Options, 4) Rules of Legitimacy, 5) Relationship, 6) Communication, and 7) Commitment. The method teaches negotiators to separate interests from positions, focus on interests to create value and reach agreements, and use the 7 elements as a framework for developing an effective negotiation strategy.

How a market-driven focus focus leads companies to build products people want to buy !
The document discusses the strategic role of product management. It argues that many companies confuse marketing with promotion, sales, public relations, and advertising. However, true marketing as defined by Peter Drucker is understanding customers so well that products sell themselves by solving customer problems. The document advocates that companies need product management to be truly market-driven and focus on identifying customer needs and building products to meet those needs, rather than focusing on existing company capabilities. Product management represents the voice of the customer within the organization and ensures products are driven by market requirements rather than by other departments like engineering, sales or marketing communications.
The document discusses the strategic role of product management. It argues that product management is needed to make companies truly market-driven by understanding customer needs and problems. Effective product managers identify market opportunities, communicate them within the organization, and ensure the development of products that solve customer problems. The document contrasts this view of product management and marketing with common misconceptions, such as equating marketing with promotional activities alone or believing sales and other functions can substitute for dedicated product management.
The document outlines the key concepts and components of strategic market management. It discusses business strategy, sustainable competitive advantage, strategic business units, and the different concepts in strategic marketing management. The production concept, product concept, selling concept, marketing concept, and holistic marketing concept are explained. Finally, the components of strategic market management are listed as analyzing the current situation, assessing opportunities, identifying target markets, setting goals, developing strategies, creating an implementation timeline, and establishing a marketing budget.

ISMM Winning Edge - Why not experiementMark McCarthy
Competitive advantage comes from doing things differently and better than competitors through increased market share and growth. Sustainable competitive advantage relies on attributes that are difficult to copy, such as creativity and innovation from employees. Recently, applied behavioral economics has gained attention from businesses as a way to achieve predictable revenue growth by understanding human behavior in buying and selling. Experimentation within sales organizations can provide sustainable competitive advantage but is underutilized due to rigid thinking and short-term goals; conducting controlled experiments with clear objectives can help sales organizations improve performance.

E-learning refers to electronic learning facilitated by web-enabled technology that allows people to learn at their own pace and place. There are two main types: synchronous training involves real-time interaction with instructors through video conferencing or chat; asynchronous training is self-paced without live instructors through online modules, videos or articles. The benefits of e-learning include just-in-time knowledge access from anywhere, reduced costs, and interactive learning, while drawbacks can include a lack of self-discipline, face-to-face interaction and flexibility.

This document proposes an IoT-based waste management system to address issues like overflowing dustbins. Sensors would detect fill levels and send alerts. Underground pipes and GPS-enabled trucks optimized for routes would help with waste collection. Real-time monitoring of bin levels and truck locations would improve efficiency. The system aims to save costs and fuel, avoid pollution, create jobs, and optimize waste collection for a cleaner environment.
The incremental process model breaks down software development into standalone modules that each pass through requirements, design, implementation, and testing phases independently. Each subsequent release of a module adds new functionality to the previous release until the full system is complete. This allows for easier testing and debugging, and gives customers a chance to provide feedback after each component delivery. However, proper planning and design is needed to successfully integrate components without consuming significant time to fix issues.
The document describes the spiral model, a software development process combining elements of both the waterfall model and iterative development. It consists of iterations (called spirals) that each involve planning, risk analysis, engineering, and evaluation phases. The spiral model emphasizes risk analysis and allows for incremental development, customer evaluation and incorporation of changes throughout the project. It is best suited for large, complex projects where requirements are unclear and risks need to be carefully managed.
The document provides an overview of the Agile process model for software development. It describes Agile as an iterative and incremental process that focuses on adaptability and customer satisfaction. The main Agile methodologies discussed are Extreme Programming (XP), which emphasizes coding to customer specifications and testing code, and Scrum, which is a framework for complex product development using cross-functional teams. Pros and cons of the Agile model are mentioned along with examples of Agile software tools like Active Collab and Agilo for Scrum. The conclusion states that Agile allows for faster delivery and better productivity through risk analysis compared to other software development processes.
Six Sigma and Quality Management SystemMariamKhan120
The document discusses Six Sigma, a methodology used to improve processes and reduce defects. It aims to eliminate waste and inefficiency to increase customer satisfaction. Six Sigma projects follow the DMAIC or DMADV methodologies which involve defining problems, measuring key aspects, analyzing data, improving processes based on findings, and controlling changes. The goal is to achieve no more than 3.4 defects per million opportunities. Widespread use of Six Sigma can lead to benefits like reduced costs, improved quality, and increased profits and customer loyalty.
This document discusses white box testing, which is a software testing technique where testers have explicit knowledge of the internal workings of the code. It tests all paths in the code including statements, branches, paths, and conditions. The document defines these terms and provides formulas to calculate coverage metrics like statement coverage. It notes that white box testing can find hidden errors and optimize code but is also more expensive and complex than black box testing.
This document describes a blood bank management system with four main modules: administration, donor, receiver, and activities. The system is designed to gather blood from various sources, distribute it to hospitals and those in need, and manage the database. It allows users to track donor details, blood collection, screening, component preparation, storage, requests, compatibility testing, issue blood, and generate monthly statistics. The system provides functionality to efficiently manage all processes within the blood bank.
Black box testing is a software testing method where the internal structure of the item being tested is not known to the tester. It focuses on the functional requirements and tests the functionality of an application without looking at the internal code or structure. Black box testing can find errors in functions, interfaces, data structures, performance, initialization and termination. It is applicable to integration, system and acceptance testing levels. Common techniques include equivalence partitioning, boundary value analysis and cause-effect graphing.

They use a marketing mix strategy of competitive pricing, global distribution channels, and promotional campaigns. To succeed, Motorola must develop new products, penetrate markets, target niches, and follow technology adapters.

2. Definition
Scorpio technique is a continuous process of
every company and each and every company
have own time frame to review the technique may
be in 0ne year or one month ,may be in one week
or other .
This technique is used to justify the strategies
that we have selected while doing the analyses of
BCG Matrix.
3. Components of SCORPIO
Segmentation and targeting. This is one of the
enormously important areas in which the organization
had missed completely in the past due to in house
skirmishes between the organization corporate
strategy specialists and the organizational marketers.
Issues that the organization covers in this section are
as such:
What is the market?
What is the market segment?
Which segment(s) should the organization approach?
Which segment(s) should we own?
Which segments should we avoid?
5. The Customer
The organizations corporate strategy is customer
focused rather than product or production
focused but sometimes struggles to identify “who
is the customer”, in previous meetings in where
the marketing mix was discussed, at no time was
the customer discussed as to who the customer
is, what the customer wants and what the
customer needs.
The lessons learnt from the SCORPIO model
result in the organization anticipating the needs of
the customer with regard to product and service
development.
6. Organization – processes and
culture.
It belongs to human resource management but
the organization recognizes that “nothing will ever
happen unless the people in the organization
want to do it” after all the people in the
organization are “oil in the engine of a car”, to use
a rather simplistic but accurate metaphor.
7. Retention (customer)
The organization agrees with the work by
Reichheld (2001) on customer loyalty and its
subsequent effects, in which he states, “…we all
know that it is far more profitable to retain an
existing customer than go to all the expense of
acquiring a new one”. Though retention is more a
strategic issue rather than a tactical one, in recent
years the organization has gone to great lengths
to improve the level of customer retention as 58%
of business sales are to repeat customers[2] so it
was seen as prudent to retain as many prior
customers as possible without losing focus on
attracting new clientele.
8. Positioning and branding.
The organization found the idea (Fifield, 2007)
that, by blending positioning and branding
together starts to identify routes and processes
that enable the organization to look for unique
positions in a market. Adopting this approach has
created brands that have a real market, customer
and financial value.
9. Industry or market
This question picks up the whole area of what
business the organization is in (industry) and
contrasts with what business the organization
ought to be in (markets).
This was a question first posed by Theodore
Levitt in the now famous article “Marketing
Myopia”, this question though fifty years old still
has no answer that can be found in either
corporate strategy or marketing tactics.
10. Offerings.
It brings together the knowledge that the
organization has about the current and future
customer needs, the market we are in, the
competition that it faces, brand, differentiation and
pricing in a cohesive way which has proved, at times
more successful than the marketing mix.
As Paul Fifield (2007) puts so well “…the
organization will be as successful as its offering is
perceived by its target market – no more”.
11. SCORPIO conclusions
The SCORPIO process is not a new model but is
the organizations preferred way of structuring the
learning that any good marketer should possess.
Mintzberg (1994) noted that real strategy must
be “crafted rather than deduced” according to the
real time data available, SCORPIO is exactly the
same and finally, no elements of SCORPIO can be
eliminated from the organizations strategy.
Experience has shown that the organization needs
at least to touch on each element.
It is at this point that the organization formalizes
these decisions into a marketing plan, which should
communicate the objectives and strategy to the
