The Value Chain Compass
The Value Chain Compass offers a guide for enterprises wanting to create a new value chain, or to transform an existing supply chain into a value chain.
Based on five years of case study research, this value chain compass resource offers an in-depth information guide that explores a series of value chain attributes to consider when developing a value chain strategy.
It highlights nine key characteristics of successful value chains and presents them in an organised way around demand, supply, governance and management.
Connections
Whakawhanaungatanga is an invitation to build relationships and make connections.
Alongside values, our research highlights two key connections that underpin a successful value chain:
Between consumers and producers.
Between governance and management.

Consumers and Producers
Do we understand what our consumers want?
Do we understand what our products offer?
How do we connect what we produce with what the consumer values?
How to we connect with our consumers and tell ‘our story’ how the product was developed?
Governance and Management
How do we ensure our values are maintained and upheld?
How do we turn our values into a business strategy?
How do we collaborate with other businesses that share our business values to create value?
In our value chain, what does whakawhanaungatanga mean and how can we express it?
Values
What are the values that guide ourselves and our organisation?
How do our partners, or potential partners, share and articulate our collective values?
What do we have in place to express these values from paddock to plate?
