The ability to respond quickly and flexibly gives a competitive advantage

As the business world becomes increasingly fast-paced and competitive, reacting quickly and flexibly to changing environments has become more critical than ever.    

Mid-sized companies, in particular, face the challenge of competing with larger, more established organizations while also trying to keep up with the rapid pace of change. However, the good news is that today’s technological innovations are providing new opportunities for mid-sized companies to overcome the limitations of traditional diagnostic management control systems and gain a competitive advantage. 

 One key factor that enables mid-sized organizations to respond quickly and flexibly is advanced technologies and digital tools. Today’s technological innovations —the metaverse, cloud computing, AI, and more— are addressing collective challenges and unlocking new opportunities for organizations in various industries, helping them overcome the limitations of traditional diagnostic management control systems. 

Example of the healthcare industry

To illustrate the concept, a customer company in the healthcare industry has successfully leveraged technology and its culture of innovation to respond quickly and flexibly. When a major supplier suddenly went out of business, the company faced the challenge of finding a new supplier on short notice. 

 Instead of relying on conventional diagnostic management control systems, they used real-time data visualization and machine learning algorithms to track key performance indicators (KPIs) and identify potential suppliers that could meet their needs. This allowed them to find a new supplier quickly and efficiently, rather than relying on slow processes that might have yet to identify the problem in time. 

 Using these tools and being proactive in its response, the company quickly identified and secured a new supplier, minimizing the impact on its operations and maintaining a competitive advantage. 

Similarly, agile project management methodologies and tools can help organizations be more flexible and responsive to changing priorities and needs, enabling them to deliver value more quickly and efficiently. 

Culture of innovation and experimentation 

In addition to leveraging technology and digital tools, organizations can also benefit from building a culture of innovation and experimentation that encourages employees to test new ideas and approaches and learn from their successes and failures. This helps create a more agile and responsive organization that can better adapt to changing circumstances and needs. 

 In conclusion, the ability to respond quickly and flexibly is crucial for mid-sized companies looking to compete in today’s business environment. By leveraging today’s technological innovations and building a culture of innovation and experimentation, mid-sized companies can overcome the limitations of traditional diagnostic management control systems and maintain a competitive advantage in high-innovation settings.

Unlocking Business Potential in the Digital Era

Similarly, the most significant problems of our time are global and require globally coordinated solutions. All these partnerships need more trust and transparency to succeed.

Businesses have always changed with the times, but the confluence of technological innovations such as mobile, cloud, social, and Big Data analytics are accelerating the pace and generating new business models, allowing disrupters better serve their customer and drive growth.

Cloud computing and data technology significantly reduce CapEx as well as operating and maintenance costs while allowing access to computing power to process an ever-increasing volume of data. For example, car-sharing services enable private cars to temporarily become taxis, monitoring drivers and riders, adjusting prices and routes throughout the day.

Distributed systems enable redundant and resilient networks that protect the integrity of the systems. If data is distributed between multiple servers, there may not be any data loss even if a storage device ceases to work.

Data security is of particular importance in distributed systems, and advanced cryptography secures both network and transactions to their integrity.

Together, these technologies enable the potential for blockchain to allow for new collaborative and trusted behaviors that are unlocking new business models.

Fluid Chains’ process leverages the concepts of Exponential Organizations by @salimismail, and it has helped us to simplify the complexity of new interconnected prosperous opportunities. The Exponential Attributes had facilitated to our customer the development of accelerated global coordinated solutions. The application of attributes varies by project and by industry, below a short explanation on how the attributes have been helping our Distributed Ledger projects.

Leveraging External Communities via project incentives is vital to creating value for any blockchain project, it allows to turn community members into engaged advocates participating of securing the network and making the difference between success and failure for the new distributed organizations created around these decentralized projects. Cryptographic Algorithms and hashing, a cryptographic method of converting any data into a string of characters, keep the blockchain secure.

APIs had allowed developers to leverage open source software and build marketplaces with next-generation applications and projects; Interfaces are key in blockchain projects to enable the community to connect with systems. Blockchain technology is in an early stage, the best time to find the right use case for your business problem across your industry, get into space, set a small group in a design thinking process, experiment, learn, measure and pivot.

Autonomy of contributors and stakeholders is a crucial concept for how people related and interact with blockchain projects and each other. It creates efficiencies within individual actors direct their efforts, circumventing inefficiencies of top-down control

At Fluid Chains we integrate the transformational power of blockchain into your organization to create ventures with exponential scaling potential and sustainable business models.
