7/11: Japan

Paper Summary:

This paper discusses Seven-Eleven Japan's knowledge management business model and supply chain management software systems. In the mid-1980's, the Corporation invested in advanced information technology software applications that resulted in the company implementing its new point-of-sale (POS) and electronic point of sale (EOS) systems. The paper argues that Seven-Eleven Japan is quite successful and attributes this success to its innovative e-strategies.

From the Paper:

"In the 21st century, the information technology movement has taken the way the world does business to an entirely new level where people are able to communicate with one another virtually. As a result, e-business has taken the world by storm by connecting businesses and consumers online (i.e. b2b and b2c). Long gone are the days of greeting customers face to face and ordering products and supplies by phone and fax."
