Abstract: | There are three steps required to convert a firm from unfocused cost management to strategic cost management: 1. audit existing and planned cost management initiatives to ensure that they enhance the firm's strategic position, 2. extend the scope of internal cost management beyond the walls of the factory, 3. extend the cost management program beyond the boundaries of the firm. |
