harvard case on dell virtual integration model...

please lets give credit where credit is due....kudos to msd and what harvard makes a case for...but msd is only using a j-i-t (just in time) vendor supply model that the japanese have been using for twenty years...msd smart enough to copy from a very efficient system, that was created out of necessity by the japanese heavy industries...

we all benefit from msd vision to apply it to an industry before everyone else...it is not proprietary, but requires a total committment of the whole business model...something which compaq, gateway, hp, ibm are not willing to do...the bible of manufacturing efficiency is written in japanese...but the seed came from demming in the post war era...a simple but misunderstood concept...
