A solution chain is that internal process within an organization that places value upon continuous and cooperative improvements for products and services, not only to improve operations and effectiveness, but is intended to extend to customers in offering them the best product of service that is needed by them and then servicing the customer is its use and support.
This is an approach that places a higher priority upon satisfying the customer and placing the solution provider in a service position. This requires a cooperative and collaborative team effort with genuine care for the customer with a lessened emphasis on profits and reputation.
Collegial organizations are ones that are able to provide this type of solution chain due to the complexity of organization management processes and the demands of a dynamic, global environment.
Famous quotes containing the words solution and/or chain:
“There is a lot of talk now about metal detectors and gun control. Both are good things. But they are no more a solution than forks and spoons are a solution to world hunger.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1953)
“By this unprincipled facility of changing the state as often, and as much, and in as many ways as there are floating fancies or fashions, the whole chain and continuity of the commonwealth would be broken. No one generation could link with the other. Men would become little better than the flies of a summer.”
—Edmund Burke (1729–1797)
