... refer to subsection 4.4, Loss Magnitude Category Rankings' for details concerning the three proposed levels of assessed severity. In the true sense of business impact analysis such items as competition, product failure, hostile stock takeover, hostile competition via patent infringement and adverse labor relations are factors to be considered but they are not necessarily applicable to the risk management spectrum. Other items such as regulatory activity have an impact on the business analysis including, but not limited to the Environmental Protection Act (EPA) and the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) and American Disability Act (ADA) . 4.2 Comprehensive Analysis In projecting the probable maximum foreseeable event, it is important to combine several exposures in order to achieve a realistic impact on the corporate operating and financial abilities. A hypothetical loss situation in a manufacturing facility could entail these conditions: a boiler explosion with an ensuing fire, injury to both employees and third party guests; fire damage occurring in the immediate exterior perimeter as well as structural collapse affecting self-insured fleet vehicles. In analyzing a major crisis situation such as natural hazards, it is important to extend the impact on finances to assess the effects of major losses against either self-insured or experience rated group medical benefit plans. Consideration should be given to other specific adverse exposures such as hostile takeover, product extortion, product contamination, product recall, pollution, limited resource interdependency, government regulatory problems, destructive union and strike activities as well as hostile media situations. 4.3 Evaluating Crises Exposures In the process of evaluating crises exposures, a determination concerning estimated probability of crises loss should be developed concerning the ...

... awareness, responsiveness, technology, and administrative efficiencies. Keeping prices low reduces competition. Raising prices invites competition. If the Postal Service had used its dominant position to lower costs and improve services, some of its competitors might never have appeared. As Einstein said, a problem can't be solved with the same thinking that created it. To compete in today's market, the Postal Service must innovate. In the vernacular of the bayou, don't let your alligator mouth overload your tadpole tail (see # 3 above) . Every organization (such as the Postal Service) can excel in some form or fashion — even if only by providing a good, bad example. In today's world, consumers are in charge and competition drives the marketplace. Consumers don't care about your problems (or those of any manufacturer/distributor, such as the Postal Service) . As Peter Drucker so eloquently states, the future will be driven by price-driven costing, not cost-driven pricing. In the past, an organization could add up its costs and then set a profit level to charge a given price. Manufacturers and distributors dominated this cost-driven pricing model, selling to consumers with limited sophistication and access to information. Today, the consumer rules (see # 7 above) . Sophisticated buyers with Internet access can shop from unlimited sources in a global economy. The result: a market based on price-driven costing, in which there's a price consumers will pay for every product or service and the manufacturer/distributor must offer if it wants to stay in business. In this environment, the consumer doesn't care if the price ...

... reapplied them to solve the puzzle. Although he could never do this the correct way, it was satisfying for him to show us his "accomplishment." &# 160 If you're familiar with the cube, you'll understand his frustration. If you've never seen or played with this toy, you'll never appreciate the challenge. So what does this game have to do with designing effective surveys? Nothing — or perhaps everything. &# 160 In the past, businesses served "mass markets." Although the individual members of these groups differed in age, economics, gender, and race there was no expectation for "tailor made" products. The only possible exception was for the wealthiest members of the "mass" — and even they had limited expectations for customization. &# 160 Although manufacturers would occasionally narrow the mass into market segments by age, economics, etc., this was just dividing the "herd" into smaller "pens." &# 160 Because of this there were only a few competitors, all of whom shared success and profits by selling similar products to the public. Consumers had limited access to information, most of which was controlled by or filtered through manufacturers, distributors, or providers. &# 160 Today, the game has changed. We've joined a global market that's the most competitive in history. The Internet has given every consumer convenient access to full information on any product or service, creating a new "sophisticated" consumer who can shop from an unlimited number of sources in a global economy. This is a significant power shift . & ...
