This chapter discusses the nature and origins of marketing. Marketing covers a wide range of essential business activities which ensure that customers can obtain the products and services that they want and need, when and how they want them. The most common applications of marketing are consumer marketing, business-to-business marketing, service marketing, not-for-profit marketing, and international marketing. Since the 1960s, marketing has used the four Ps of Price, Place, Product, and Promotion to deliver its marketing objectives and this has now been expanded to include another three Ps of People, Physical Evidence, and Process. The chapter also includes an assessment of what is customer value.

Business-to-business firms know that being able to obtain a higher price than competitors and to keep customers happy they must deliver something the customer perceives as value. To support customers to be able and willing to pay this value, a customized, quantified business case needs to be developed to allow the customer to see the payback for whatever investment is being requested versus other alternatives. A previous methodology to do this was to look at the total cost of ownership (TCO) of the proposed purchase over its life. However, too often, TCO became the total cost of acquisition by procurement people (missing the installation, operational and disposal phases, which is often 8 times more important than the landed cost). The next evolution is to look at a more holistic measurement of value that takes into account not only cost savings but all improvements, such as risk reductions, increased revenue and customer satisfaction. Only then can buyers and sellers make decisions on who is creating the best value and what someone should be willing to pay for it. Anyone who can demonstrate and document the greatest value surplus is the one delivering the best value.

In response to the dramatic changes in the business landscape over the last few years, many companies are launching business transformations leveraging digital technologies to drive sweeping changes in their supply chain processes. The digital supply chain transformation can be evident establishing collaborative forecasting processes, optimizing networks and inventories, etc. Digital supply chain transformation is not a new buzz word. It is the application of digital capabilities to processes, products, and assets to improve supply chain efficiency, enhance customer value, manage risk, and achieve competitive advantage. However, organizations are still facing numerous challenges to transform and perform. Perhaps the most common misunderstanding is that digital transformation is all about the implementation and use of cutting-edge technologies. This chapter will dive deep to understand major challenges to digital supply chain transformations, identify the key drivers and enablers of digital opportunity, and provide a change management framework for digital supply chain transformation.
