No ValueAdded NVA is a management term loosely related to the Lean Manufacturing movement as codified in the 1980s by a landmark Massachusetts Institute of Technology MIT study ref The Machine That Changed the World ref of the Automaker automobile industry , which explained lean production for the first time. No ValueAdded programs can be formal or whimsical. Generally, they involved seeking input and opinion from every level of the organization about rules, processes or process elements which are said to be no valueadded. In one form, the proponent of an activity accused of being NVA must defend it, or suspend it. In a milder form, the proponent or process owner of an activity accused of being NVA is simply informed that it is seen in that light. Oddly, this milder form is often effective because in a large organization, the original reason for an activity can be long forgotten, similar to caboose cabooses which came into use in the 1830s ref www.uprr.com aboutup history caboose caboo01.shtml ref , but eventually had no useful purpose and became NVA.

Unreferenced date October 2007 Valueadded selling is one of several sales techniques that relies on building on the inherent value of a product or service. By its nature the value add technique is a more flexible and customized selling approach that requires input from a defined range of average customers. These customers will help the sales and marketing leaders to outline value positions that are likely to benefit the largest number of customers. The value add may not be initially apparent in the sales over view and is often tied to up selling or vertical selling within a specific market segment. The utility of the product or service, ease of integration in to the customers business operations, or time saving benefits are just a few areas that may be exploited when focusing on value add. One of the more recent examples of valueadded selling is hybrid cars . These are cars that rely on a mix of gasoline power and electric power. The inherent value of the product is still the same. Basically it moves a person from point A to point B. The value add can be seen in several different ways. The first is the obvious fuel savings. But there is also addedvalue in less time spent at the gas station, and the cars pollute the air less than a normal combustion engine. The value add in this instance is determined by the customer, and not the company selling the car. Category Selling techniques ... more details
Unreferenced date April 2010 Cleanup date April 2010 The term, Fixed valueadded resource FVAR is a marketing concept used to describe items, that whilst seeming unrelated to the core product in nature, provide the user with something that adds Value marketing value to the core product or service offering on a permanent basis. The term was coined by the entrepreneur Edward A Blake in his attempt to quickly explain the purpose of a resource he was promoting to online service providers. Definition In order for an item to be classed as an FVAR, Edward A Blake set out the following three requirements 1. The item must be fixed in nature. That is, an item to be found on a constant basis within the core product. 2. The item must not be directly related in content do that of the core product. For instance, a Model of the Day feature would be an FVAR if placed within a daily tabloid newspaper such as The Sun, but could not be classified as such if featuring within a men s magazine such as Playboy. 3. The item must add some form of distinct value to the existing value proposition of the core product. For instance, many people subscribe to a daily newspaper in the knowledge that they will derived addedvaluefrom the FVAR, such as the daily Crossword irrespective of the overall quality of that day s newspaper. Some good examples of FVARs are Daily Crossword, Sudoku and other puzzle games featured within magazines, newspapers & websites Daily Cartoons featured within magazines, newspapers & websites Free to download travel education health career guides featured upon a website The Page 3 girl feature found within The Sun Newspaper and upon its online version Category Marketing ... more details
cleanup date July 2009 orphan date July 2009 Valueadded agriculture refers most generally to manufacturing processes that increase the value of primary agricultural commodities. Valueadded agriculture may also refer to increasing the economic value of a commodity through particular production processes, e.g., organic produce, or through regionally branded products that increase consumer appeal and willingness to pay a premium over similar but undifferentiated products. This concept has gained currency in the small farm policy debate, in response to the concern that the farm value of the consumer food dollar continues to decrease. Valueadded agriculture might be a means for farmers to capture a larger share of the consumer food dollar. Examples include direct marketing farmer ownership of processing facilities and producing farm products with a higher intrinsic value such as identity preserved grains, organic produce, hormone free beef , free range chicken s etc. , for which buyers are willing to pay a higher price than for more traditional bulk commodities. Valueadded agriculture is regarded by some as a significant rural development strategy. Small scale, organic food processing, non traditional crop production, agri tourism , and bio fuels development are examples of various valueadded projects that have created new jobs in some rural areas.

A valueadded service VAS is popular as a telecommunications industry term for non core services , or in short, all services beyond standard voice calls and fax transmissions. However, it can be used in any service industry, for services available at little or no cost, to promote their primary business. In the telecommunication industry, on a conceptual level, valueadded services add value to the Application Enablement Background standard service offering , wikt spur spurring the subscriber to use their phone more and allowing the operator to drive up their ARPU . For mobile phones, while technologies like Short message service SMS , Multimedia Messaging System MMS and GPRS data access were historically usually considered valueadded services, but in recent years SMS, MMS and data access have more and more become core services, and VAS therefore has beginning to exclude those services. A distinction may also be made between standard peer to peer content and premium charged content. These are called mobile valueadded services MVAS which are often simply referred as VAS. Valueadded services are supplied either in house by the mobile network operator themselves or by a third party valueadded service provider VASP , also known as a content provider CP such as All Headline News or Reuters . VASPs typically connect to the operator using protocols like Short message peer to peer protocol SMPP , connecting either directly to the Short message service center short message service centre SMSC or, increasingly, to a messaging gateway that gives the operator better control of the content.
