As with any initiative, which impacts so many areas, Dofasco has come across
some roadblocks. The integration of business processes, vision and technology
has provided some interesting challenges. Constantly changing customer
requirements have also impacted these initiatives. According to Dofasco,
customers appreciate our willingness to embrace these new concepts and our
assisting them in reducing their costs.
The Dofasco e-business experience highlights some key issues when
considering e-business :

The importance of revitalizing supply chain business processes. These

processes must be put under the same scrutiny that many companies
have done with their internal processes, because there may be a larger
payback.

In order to achieve maximum benefits an appropriate mix of new or

revised business processes, and new technology must be deployed. This
means that for those companies implementing e-business solutions, that
the standard way of doing business will likely need to change, and new
investments in technology required, in order to maximize the benefits.

Efforts must be made to standardize electronic communications as much

as possible.

Companies must be relentlessly innovative and willing to take some risks

in order to achieve better supply chain performance.

Discuss the challenges faced by Dofasco.
