Environment business enterprises

Tom is the owner of a small manufacturing company himself He spent a portion of the interview describing his company s recent efforts to reduce waste and increase recycling in production processes, viewing this effort as integral to the company s financial success. Tom s statements reflect an increasingly prevalent view that a successful business enterprise would by default also protect the environment. In this way, responsibility for the fate of lawn chemicals is tied to the manufacturer rather than the user, or perhaps more directly, to the free market economy. Environmentally unsound businesses cannot thrive or even exist in a complex and efficient economy. [Pg.106]

The CIMOSA reference architecture, developed by the AMICE consortium within the European ESPRIT project, is a set of semiformal structures and semantics that is intended to be used as a modeling language environment for any business enterprise. The basic constructs and fundamental control structures of the architecture are collected in volumes called Eormal Reference Base 11 (FRB) and Eormal Reference Base III. FRB consists of two parts the modeling framework and the integrating infrastructure (IIS). [Pg.511]

Eradication of the need to pretreat before ink jet printing. This research is principally focused around those pigment dyestuffs that aheady skip the pretreatment stage and is related to research for a universal ink that can be used on aU liber types. A universally appUcable ink jet print process could not only offer savings for both business enterprise and the environment, but present game-changing conditions to the established textile print industry. [Pg.64]

In a modern business environment, successful enterprises cannot tolerate major corrosion failures, especially those involving personal injuries, fatalities, imscheduled shutdowns, and environmental contamination. For this reason considerable efforts are generally expended in corrosion control at the design stage and in the operational phase. This is particularly true for industries where harsh chemicals are handled routinely. [Pg.1]

The chemical structure database and registration procedure play dual roles in an enterprise screening informatics environment. These components are essential to the transactional HTS informatics system and serve as the basis for cheminformatics data analysis. While capturing the chemical structures for association with the final screening endpoints, this system also captures and applies the organizational chemical business rules to validate and standardize chemical structures and canonicalize their representations. Structural representation is a critical prerequisite for any subsequent cheminformatics analysis. [Pg.238]

There is no question in my mind that business and the free enterprise system are essential to making sustainability work. Our focus at Dow is on hard-wiring it into our company in the same way we have fully institutionalized environment, health and safety into our culture and into our work and people processes. Our challenge is to make sustainability sustainable. Ultimately, the world will judge our commitment to sustainability not by what we say, but by what we do. [Pg.229]

Thus, we should think of the business model as a dynamic concept, continually adapting to the opportunities and threats in the business environment. These dynamics can be seen in Fig. 7-4. There, customer value finds its origins in a set of societal needs, which spring from the values, aspirations, and worries of the culture in which the new enterprise dwells. For the hydrogen transition, these needs include environmental protection and fuel security in addition to the more customary needs for personal mobility, which seems common to all humankind. [Pg.115]

There are two fundamental ways an enterprise can execute a process. The first is unilaterally—the enterprise acts alone or at least is the dominant execution and governance agency in the process. The second is multilaterally—the enterprise acts in concert with others. Unilateral action is efficient but requires total command of all the resources and capabilities to execute and govern a process. Multilateral action is less efficient because it requires consensus building and coordination. However, multilateral action does not require total command of all the resources and capabilities to execute a process it is a strategy to accomplish stakeholder purposes with less. The intensely competitive and global pharmaceutical business environment places severe constraints on the resources available to a pharmacometrics enterprise to achieve and sustain success. The capability to act in multilateral partnerships with various stakeholders is a very effective means to achieve this success. Thus, the design of an effective pharmacometrics service should be assessed in terms of how... [Pg.920]

Another aspect of globalization is that it significantly increases the enterprise s business risks—that is, risks that threaten achievement of the enterprise s objectives. Traditionaiiy, management of risks has been focused on the local external environment, including such areas as the nature and size of direct competition, the labor market, the cost of capiteil, customer tmd suppher relationships, and... [Pg.30]

Continuous monitoring and assessment of external forces is critical to the future of any business. The environment plays a critical role in shaping the destinies of entire industries, as well as those of individual enterprises. Perhaps the most basic tenet of strategic management is that managers must adjust their strategies to reflect the environment in which their businesses operate. [Pg.34]
