This power company, a DUI is outsourcing its lineman team

Every generation needs a revolution - an entrepreneurial revolution

The MM power company was acquired by a famous local tycoon with practically nothing of his own money.  The DP was borrowed from a bank (which he partially controls) and paid immediately after an IPO of a holding company.  The balance of the purchase price was paid for by the cash flow of the company.  Smart eh.  (Classical case of smart acquisition taught by Finance Professor who heads a big insurance company)  Therefore he has to pamper his linemen

But the DUI has been bought by a smart guy and now does not do that.  He practices attrition and now outsources most of its line work through the line companies established by retired linemen  (mostly supervisors)   In our town, there at least 3 such companies.   They hire linemen at much lower pay, (no health or retirement pay?) and executes JO for every line installation or trouble.   Part of retirement pay went into installment sales of old vehicles and equipment  -  smart way of disposing old assets.    

Real smart guy at the top

SMART in strategy


APS, Makati, Philippines

I was at Strama defense early this week.  It was a reoral.   The earlier paper needed a lot of rework because of the lack of understanding by the student of how the business, an insurance broker operated, as we went through the external and internal analysis.    She could not tell, or clarify as to where the Insurance Brokerage gets its customer:   from open market or from the bank.

This time she could not convince the panel, as to whether the 50% growth in sales  (her planned strategic objective) which tops at 21 billion pesos next year could be achieved.   The inputs, the thhroughputs, the outputs, the 4ms, the enterprise delivery system were not clear or some were not available/written donw

Or what is magical about the product/service that would:

1.  draw in a lot of agents;

2.  Have people buy the products/service.

It was not very SMART (specific, measureable, achievable, realistic, and time bound)
