摘要
The pervasive and ubiquitous nature of electronic commerce and Internet technology has redefined the cost formula in distribution and led to organizational restructuring. This article identifies four models of distribution structures - functional decomposition, cloning, forward integration, and strategic industry alliance - that are enabled by electronic commerce. The advantages and challenges of each model are also examined.
