Mehrfachverwertung von Content: Wie sich mit denselben Ressourcen mehr Gewinn erwirtschaften lässt

Ein Buch ist mehr als nur ein Buch. Ein Artikel ist mehr als nur ein Artikel. Beide Produkte stellen im Grunde genommen lediglich verschiedene Formen der Verwertung dar. Die Ressource eines Verlags ist deshalb nicht das Buch oder der Artikel. Grundmaterial ist der Inhalt oder neudeutsch Content. Es ist die Aufgabe der Verlage zu entscheiden, welches Produkt aus dem „eingekauften“ Inhalt entstehen soll.

Den vielschichtigen Wert der Ressource Content haben viele Medienunternehmen in den vergangenen Jahren erkannt. Konsequenterweise setzen sie deshalb auf die Mehrfachverwertung und verbessern somit ihre Wertschöpfung. Konzentrierten sich Buchverlage früher nur auf die Vermarktung von Büchern, setzen viele den Inhalt heute neu in Form von Hörbüchern um und erschließen sich damit einen neuen Markt. Fachverlage publizieren Artikel nicht mehr nur in einer Zeitschrift, sondern setzen auf eine Zweitverwertung in anderen verlagsinternen Magazinen oder komponieren aus bereits veröffentlichten Inhalten Dossiers und Themenhefte. Nicht zuletzt spielt die Veröffentlichung von Inhalten wie Nachrichten, Artikel oder Bücher als E-Books im Internet eine zunehmend wichtige Rolle.

Dabei geht es nicht nur um den Verkauf von Content an Endkonsumenten, sondern auch um den Handel zwischen Unternehmen. So stellten Mitarbeiter des Beratungsunternehmens PricewaterhouseCoopers schon 2001 in einer Untersuchung fest, dass Medienunternehmen, die sich an diesem Geschäftsmodell des B2B-Handels (Business to Business) nicht beteiligen, „in Zukunft empfindliche Rückgänge bei den Umsatzerlösen verzeichnen werden“. Ohne IT-gestützte Verwaltung und Erfassung der Inhalte und Arbeitsprozesse kann die Verlags- und Medienwelt die sich bietenden Möglichkeiten nicht oder nur rudimentär nutzen. „Klassische Medienunternehmen […] müssen ihre Produktionsabläufe von Grund auf umstellen“, schrieben die Marktforscher von PricewaterhouseCoopers den Verlagen ins Stammbuch.

Content und Unternehmenswerte gemeinsam managen

Die Unterstützung durch Content-Management-Systeme zur Katalogisierung, Verwaltung und Bearbeitung von Inhalten sowie ein System zum Management von Urheber- und Verwertungsrechten sind nur Teilaspekte dieser angemahnten Umstellung. „Um Content profitabel mehrfach zu verwerten, muss man die betreffenden Kosten ermitteln und die erbrachten Leistungen auch berechnen können“, gibt Knut Nicholas Krause, Geschäftsführer der knk Business Software AG, zu bedenken. Sein Unternehmen vertreibt eine auf das Verlags- und Medienwesen zugeschnittene Branchenlösung auf Basis von Microsoft Dynamics. „Nur wenn das verwendete ERP-System verschiedene Verwertungsformen abrechnen kann, realisieren die Verantwortlichen die Chancen, die sich aus einer Weiterverwertung der vorliegenden Inhalte ergeben und bauen neue Geschäftsmodelle auf“, sagt Krause. „Haben die Verlage oder Medienhäuser kein automatisiertes System, das die Kosten des redaktionellen Einkaufs und der Content-‚Schöpfung‘ erfasst und das alle Vermarktungswege unterstützt, müssen sie die Kosten und Erlöse nachträglich von Hand berechnen. Das ist umständlich und führt oftmals zu Fehlkalkulationen, aber auch zu Widerständen bei den damit belasteten Mitarbeitern. Dann kann Mehrfachverwertung – statt Zusatzeinnahmen zu erschließen – schnell unprofitabel werden.“

Im Idealfall setzen die Contentanbieter auf eine kombinierte Lösung aus Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) und einem Content-Management-System (CMS). Das Content-Management-System erlaubt die schnelle und effiziente Umwandlung der Inhalte in das benötigte Format, die dabei stets an einer einzigen Stelle gespeichert werden. Das ERP-System ermittelt nicht nur die genauen angefallenen Kosten und Erlöse für die Inhalte und erstellt die zugehörigen Nachfragebilanzen, sondern liefert auch weitere professionelle Werkzeuge für die Vermarktung, z. B. Funktionen für Customer Relationship Management (CRM).

Auch kleinere Verlage, die sich ein CMS nicht leisten können, sollten nicht auf ein ERP-System verzichten. „Nur mit einem ERP-System kann man auch Marktnischen erschließen, weil man damit jederzeit weiß, was das kostet und wo und wie Gewinne entstehen“, resümiert knk-Geschäftsführer Krause.

Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009 - Panoramica

Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009 è una soluzione di gestione aziendale integrata e flessibile, in grado di agevolare i processi decisionali nelle organizzazioni di medie e grandi dimensioni.

Fondato su basi tecnologicamente avanzate e di provata efficacia, Microsoft Dynamics AX presenta unfunzionamento analogo a quello di software Microsoft già noto agli utenti come Microsoft Office System, con cui è completamente integrato. Assicura pertanto una curva di apprendimento estremamente ridotta che consente al personale di essere immediatamente operativo e di concentrarsi sugli obiettivi aziendali.

Con l’automazione e la semplificazione delle attività finanziarie, delle relazioni con i clienti e dei processi della supply chain, Microsoft Dynamics AX unisce persone, processi e informazioni, indipendentemente dalla loro posizione, accrescendo la produttività, l’efficienza e consentendo ai dipendenti di guidare l’azienda al successo.

Aiuta le persone a lavorare meglio

Nel mondo degli affari, la produttività e l'efficacia del singolo influiscono direttamente sui profitti. Fornisci ai collaboratori strumenti familiari e semplici che consentono di lavorare efficacemente e prendere decisioni con quella celerità che l’impresa moderna richiede.

• Consenti al personale di concentrarsi sulle attività di business, piuttosto che sull'apprendimento delle nuove applicazioni, con una soluzione che richiama come interfaccia e funzioni l'esperienza utente degli altri prodotti Microsoft.

• Lavora in modo efficace con il Role Center, un'interfaccia utente ottimizzata in base ai ruoli aziendali che aiuta i collaboratori a organizzare, assegnare priorità e accedere ad attività e informazioni, tutto da un'unica finestra.

• Espandi le capacità decisionali con strumenti automatici di Business Intelligence e reporting, che aiutano il personale ad analizzare i dati attraverso indicatori KPI dashboard, Microsoft Office Excel, Business Analytics in Microsoft Dynamics AX e Microsoft Office PerformancePoint Server 2007.

• Consenti ai collaboratori di interagire con i dati e le informazioni presenti in Microsoft Dynamics AX,direttamente dalle applicazioni di Microsoft Office.

• Facilita la comunicazione con dipendenti, clienti e partner, utilizzando strumenti di comunicazione e collaborazione grazie all'integrazione con Microsoft Unified Communications.

L'interfaccia utente rende Microsoft Dynamics AX semplice da usare: i centri gestione ruolo aiutano i collaboratori ad assegnare le priorità al proprio lavoro e acquisire una migliore comprensione delle informazioni rilevanti.

Trasforma i cambiamenti in opportunità

Per tenere il passo della concorrenza, le aziende sono chiamate a espandersi in nuovi paesi, a lanciare nuovi prodotti e servizi e potenziare i punti di forza dell'attività attraverso fusioni e acquisizioni. Con Microsoft Dynamics AX, è possibile gestire con successo la crescita e il cambiamento, creando rapporti redditizi all'interno della supply chain e adattando rapidamente i processi interni per rispondere ai cambiamenti della domanda.

• Microsoft Dynamics AX offre un'architettura orientata ai servizi, stretta integrazione con le tecnologie Microsoft e Web Services in grado di supportare scenari commerciali complessi tipicamente gestiti da aziende che operano in contesti internazionali.

• Automatizza la collaborazione all’interno della supply chain e lo scambio di documenti con i diversi partner grazie a Microsoft BizTalk Server e a Microsoft Office.

• Crea e modifica rapidamente flussi di lavoro personalizzati per trarre vantaggio da nuove opportunità e adattarsi velocemente ai requisiti del settore e dei clienti, in costante cambiamento.

• Adatta la soluzione alle modalità di lavoro dell'azienda (non il contrario)

• Soddisfa esigenze altamente specializzate tipiche del tuo settore con Microsoft Dynamics AX Industry Solutions (in inglese) o o soluzioni ad hoc realizzate dai Partner Microsoft Dynamics.

• Grazie ad un sistema di licensing (in inglese) flessibile puoi scegliere il package più adatto alle tue esigenze attuali e aggiungere nuove funzionalità nel tempo.

• Capitalizza gli investimenti attuali in servizi e tecnologia Microsoft per contribuire a garantire un ridotto time-to-benefit.

Mettiti in gioco, a livello mondiale

Oggi per gestire un business globale o l'espansione oltre i confini nazionali verso nuove sedi o succursali, le opportunità commerciali possono comportare un allargamento della base clienti.
Microsoft Dynamics AX è progettato per gestire la complessità di un'azienda globale consolidando e standardizzando i processi e fornendo visibilità nell'intera organizzazione.

• Gestisci e controlla le KPI globali e locali con strumenti di reporting e analisi sofisticati e intuitivi. Combina la soluzione con applicazioni di Business Intelligence per potenziare le capacità analitiche essenziali a gestire un ambiente aziendale complesso.

• Fornisci al personale accesso in tempo reale a indicatori KPI, scorecard e dati attraverso l'Enterprise Portal in Microsoft Dynamics AX. E con PerformancePoint Server o Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007, i responsabili delle decisioni chiave possono lavorare con informazioni critiche, senza effettuare l'accesso a Microsoft Dynamics AX.

• Gestisci il deployment in modo efficiente e uniforme con Microsoft Dynamics Sure Step, una metodologia standard e globale che semplifica i processi di implementazione e aggiornamento.

 

Garantisci il rispetto delle regole

Apparel and Textile for Microsoft Dynamics AX

 

Integrate production processes, routing, and complex item data to increase efficiency, improve traceability, and manage cascading product specifications across the supply chain.

Global competition, the increasing complexity of dispersed supply networks, and ongoing mergers and acquisitions challenge apparel and textile manufacturers to satisfy demanding customers, bring products to market faster, and operate profitably. Yet these companies often struggle with patchwork information systems that are unable to handle the required number of item variables, limit flexibility, and inhibit visibility into operations.

Apparel and Textile for Microsoft DynamicsTM AX addresses complex item coding, traceability, and process flexibility needs of companies that manufacture and distribute textiles and apparel—from fibers to yarns and consumer and industrial fabrics to home goods and carpet, as well as clothing, designer lines, and fashion accessories.

With robust, industry-specific functionality and tight integration with other Microsoft products, Apparel and Textile for Microsoft Dynamics AX is a comprehensive business management solution that provides a high degree of scalability and readily adapts to your company needs and changing corporate structure. Support for multiple languages and currencies helps you operate smoothly across geographies. With Apparel and Textile for Microsoft Dynamics AX, you can be confident your solution is relevant to the demands of your industry and business.

Advanced item coding links item production and finishing variables with sourcing, BOM generation, and routing to help ensure traceability, cost accounting, and profitability analysis.

Benefits:

• Manage complexity for comprehensive traceability. Handle numerous material and product variables effectively with multi-dimensional item coding that enables you to track from raw fibers to finished goods—and back. Trace materials through variable sourcing and manufacturing processes, subcontractors, inventory, and logistics.

• Increase agility with adaptable processes for sourcing, manufacturing, and shipment allocation. Use blanket orders, neutral bills of materials (BOMs), multi-line manufacturing orders, and variable routing and allocation simulations to meet changing customer and supplier requirements.

• Take control of costs and profitability. Integrate material, item, order, and cost information into comprehensive financial management and reporting tools. For example, gain insight into seasonal or brand collections’ performance or profitability of various distribution channels.

• Gain insight to respond effectively to changing conditions. Run simulations and model new processes to adapt effectively to changes in product lines, manufacturing capabilities, supply partners, production geographies, vertical integration, and distribution.

• Streamline supply chain interactions. Take advantage of multicurrency, multilanguage, and multi-site support to speed transactions, improve transparency, and facilitate consolidated financial reporting.

Dimensional item management	Manage complex item variables with advanced coding attributes and “smart” SKU coding for raw materials, process outputs, and item characteristics including collection or seasonal grouping, style, color, color-way, size dimensions, decorations, and finishing variants. Automatically update item codes based on manufacturing process completion with transaction-driven code changes and extensions.
Bi-directional materials tracking	Improve traceability both upstream and downstream when you can track goods by lot, batch, and serial number and trace finished goods back to components and suppliers through item BOMs.
Flexible bills of material (BOMs)	Streamline planning and increase production agility with neutral BOMs that enable production and materials planning independent of variables such as size, color, or color-way.
Adaptive production management	Increase efficiency and respond quickly to changes with multi-line manufacturing orders, flexible and alternative routings, and reprocessing management. Support either push or pull production policies and integrate subcontractor routings and management into planning and logistics.
Tailored customer order capabilities	Streamline order entry by creating multiple order types such as collection and showroom orders and open blanket orders with truncated codes for later specification. Accommodate multiple shipment addresses and delivery dates per order and save time by making mass modifications in existing or blanket orders.
Quality assurance support	Integrate quality grading processes and information into the production and supply chain. Allocate products of various grades to different distribution channels and gain insight into grade costs and profitability.
Integrated shipping	Define and meet customer requirements for put-up options, labeling, unitizing, and documentation, with item and shipment information fully integrated into invoicing and accounting processes.
Inventory management	Maintain multiple material status indicators and improve inventory management with comprehensive tracking of materials and finished goods, including samples, off-site deposits such as trade show or showroom stocks, multiple real and virtual warehouses, and wholesale or distributor inventories.
Supply chain management	Increase supply chain visibility, monitor subcontractor performance, and collaborate effectively. Incorporate supply partners into routing decisions and costing, share information using Microsoft® formats familiar to people worldwide, and extend replenishment processes to suppliers through the Internet.
Price lists	Access integrated cost information to easily generate price lists for finished goods of various quality grades, sizing, and quantities, plus create and maintain special promotional, trade-show, or showroom pricing.

Industrial Distribution - Increasing profitability and competitiveness

Industrial Distribution
Increasing profi tability and competitiveness Global competition, shorter product lifecycles, lean economic conditions, increasing customer demands—these and other challenges put enormous pressures on industrial distributors.  The escalating requirements of large customers present a particular challenge. Demands for lower prices, improved packaging, specific labeling, and tight delivery requirements create tough conditions—especially for any distributor still tied to conventional supply chain systems and processes. These
large customers want value-added supply chain services such as collaborative planning and vendor managed inventories. In some cases, the demand for Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) can force industrial distributors to implement new business processes on top of old systems that do not provide adequate support.

The challenges increase substantially with outdated IT systems. Simply put, older, infl exible systems create internal ineffi ciencies that are hard to overcome. It can be diffi cult for you to forecast accurately enough to manage your inventory effectively. Left unresolved, these issues lead to discounts, lost orders, higher inventory costs, and unhappy customers.

But with the right technology, being competitive gets easier. If  you have the right business solutions in place, you can adapt to evolving market and customer demands by improving supply chain operations, effectively managing branch locations and sales staff while keeping costs low, and creating service-related income.

Managing the supply chain Installing a fl exible, robust IT environment is the best way  for you to create an effi cient, smoothly functioning supply chain that manages integrated contracts and delivers comprehensive service-level commitments. That, in turn, can help you increase your profits.

If your company focuses on improving the systems that control supply chain operations, then you’re on the path to obtaining competitive advantages that result from reducing the cost of distribution with systems that support new business requirements and processes.

For example, you can take advantage of capabilities that  facilitate easy and effi cient real-time access to inventory, customer order status, sales, purchasing, and fi nancial information across multiple locations. You can streamline the flow of information across your organization so that every department in the company works with the same data for real-time decision making.

And you can increase on-time delivery with powerful customer / supplier integration, planning tools, and company-wide inventory visibility.

By using effective supply chain management solutions,  industrial distributors can use business automation as a substantial competitive advantage. When coupled with inventory control technology, on-time customer shipments improve, lead times decrease, and there is an increase in inventory turns and accuracy of order-fill rates. These capabilities can help reduce costs drastically and gain a strong position as a low-cost, preferred supplier while
creating additional value to your customers.

Improving branch operations
If you run or are part of a large distribution company, then the
effectiveness of branch operations and your sales staff are top
priorities. With the right business solutions in place, you can make sure that operations beyond company headquarters are running smoothly and contributing to profi tability.

This starts by using technology to help you become a trusted advisor who has a comprehensive view of the customer to assist in customer service coordination. With an integrated accounting and customer relationship management (CRM) solution, you can ensure that the CRM tasks performed by salespeople include important information such as quotations, billings, and shipment deadlines.

You can also tighten delivery times and schedules by  integrating specifi c customer requests into your business software so human errors are reduced or eliminated. And you can coordinate all aspects of a customer’s profi le when multiple personnel are communicating to that customer on a regular basis.

Increasing profi tability With collaborative, tightly integrated software and systems  in place, there is greater potential for bigger profits. Industrial distributors can easily identify and eliminate areas of wasted activity because they no longer have to deal with separate “islands” of information that require extra resources to manage or that operate outside of a global view of company operations. It is easier to support and take
advantage of Automated Data Collection (ADC) systems to lower costs—while improving customer service.

And with integrated systems, industrial distributors have smart  knowledge management tools at their disposal to identify opportunities for new products and services that can be offered to customers most likely to need them.

Optimal performance with Microsoft Dynamics
Microsoft DynamicsTM provides a set of strong applications that deliver a compelling suite of technologies for industrial distributors.

business and set it apart from the competition.

Microsoft SQL ServerTM delivers a solid foundation for collecting, analyzing, and reporting data across your
company’s systems. And deep integration with Microsoft Office System applications, such as Microsoft Excel®, Word, Outlook®, Internet Explorer, SharePoint, and Visio®, can help you better understand inventory, plan production and lead times, design reports, and use data required to make accurate and cost-effective decisions.

Microsoft Dynamics, along with Microsoft server technologies and productivity solutions, offers tremendous fl exibility and scalability to implement the solution to meet today’s
requirements and to allow for substantial future growth and change.
