➤ Why is marketing strategy not considered a primary operations management function?
Marketing strategy defines target markets, positioning, and promotion. Operations focuses on producing and delivering goods and services. Because marketing sets customer demand and product specifications, it belongs to a different functional area. Still, close collaboration is essential so operations can meet marketing’s price, timing, quality, and volume requirements.

➤ How does a partially integrated or administered vertical system compare in channel control?
Partially integrated systems combine ownership at some channel stages or use coordination without ownership.

They reduce capital needs and risk but require strong coordination and contracts.
