The new rules of competition
Gaining advantage through collaboration
The challenge of complexity
The case for ‘co-opetition’
The Supply Chain of the future
New competitive realities
• Input costs are rising but …
• New sources of low cost competition mean that
the pressure on price will continue and …
• Continued concentration of markets means that
bigger, more powerful customers will demand
more from their suppliers whilst …
• Conventional marketing strategies have less
effect in a time-sensitive, on-demand world

Nothing ever changes ........
“..... In 50 years between 1870 and 1920 the
cost of distributing necessities and luxuries
has nearly trebled, while production costs
have gone down by one-fifth.... What we are
saving in production we are losing in
distribution.”
Ralph Borsodi
‘The Distribution Age’ 1929

The search for collaborative advantage
• Seek out opportunities for horizontal as well
as vertical collaboration
• Co-operate to grow the cake, compete on how
to slice it
• Leveraging capabilities and knowledge through
collaboration
• Share assets in the supply chain where
appropriate

The business case for supply chain
integration
• Supply chains compete, not companies
• Most opportunities for cost reduction and/or
value enhancement lie at the interface between
supply chain partners
• Supply chain competitiveness is based upon the
value-added exchange of information
• Supply chain integration implies process
integration
• Supply chain competitiveness requires the
collective determination of strategy

Co-opetition: a definition
A business strategy based on a
combination of cooperation and
competition, derived from an
understanding that business competitors
can benefit when they work together.
A “non zero sum” scenario, in which the
sum of what is gained by all players is
greater than the combined sum of what
the players entered the scenario with.

Co-opetition
Cooperative Competition
Co-opetition occurs when companies work together in
parts of their business where they do not believe they
have competitive advantage and where they believe
they can share common costs.
Basic premise:
- Co-opetition strategy and value creation leverage
the alliance
- Partner with other shippers (even competitors) to
control logistics and transport costs
- Load consolidation

Co-opetition Partners
• Producers, Customers, Consumers who drive producer
demand and determine product eco-footprint
• Shippers and Terminal Operators who generate the freight
flows and provide the critical infrastructure for product flow
• Logistic Service Partners (3PLs) who can design and
implement optimised solutions and move the freight
• Fourth Party Providers who can facilitate partnerships,
referee blockages, find common ground
• Governments who can assure that legal and regulatory
arrangements are in place to support seamless collaboration

Co-opetition = Value Creation
• Co-opetition does not simply
emerge from coupling
competition and cooperation
issues
• Co-opetition implies that
cooperation and competition
merge together to form a new
kind of strategic
interdependence between
firms, giving rise to a
co-opetitive system of
reciprocal value creation.
