Most Businesses are Service-Oriented
Here's what I've discovered:
- 30 years ago, the Fortune 100 companies all made some tangible product.
- Today, only 32 of the top 100 companies make a product. The other 68 traffic in ideas, information and services.
- So much of what's considered valuable today is transactional in nature (e.g., a Google search or an Amazon order). Even the businesses that make something have back office transaction functions like ordering, invoicing, billing, purchasing and payments. These processes that are so error prone that they overshadow the quality of the manufactured product.
Transactions are either good or bad, accurate or inaccurate. You don't need an indepth knowledge of statistics to reduce transaction errors. You need Performance Charts, Pareto charts and fishbone diagrams.
So, I'd like you to consider that most companies no longer make things that require advanced statistics to analyze production and the ones that do need more help with their customer transactions than their product. And, if you're one of those companies that make something, consider hiring a bit of outside help if you need statistical analysis. You'll learn more by applying the tools to your problem than you'll ever learn in class.
