ABSTRACT

Enterprise competitiveness is the competitiveness of a firm. Competitiveness is the power to maintain stable and long-term predominance in a just and free market economy. Accordingly, the foundation for competitiveness is an enterprise ethos originating in the establishment of an enterprise, where every member is willing to grapple with any situation without fear of failure, and where people in the workplace freely exchange their views and opinions. Enterprise Logistics are required as circumstantial conditions, so to speak, but are not part of the competitiveness base per se. An enterprise has to prepare that base on its own. Once Enterprise Logistics and the Enterprise Economic Base are established, competitiveness can enter the arena for actors. The Structure of Enterprise Competitiveness is composed of three layers. The first layer includes Enterprise Logistics. The second layer is the Enterprise Economic Base. The third layer is, then, the Management System.
