DIGITAL ECONOMICS
In the in-house production model, the company typically has full control over the
product or service and is able to make decisions quickly and efficiently. The
company may also have a greater degree of intellectual property protection, since the
product is created and owned entirely by the company.
However, there are also some potential drawbacks to the in-house production model.
For example, the company may not have access to the same level of expertise and
resources that would be available in a more collaborative production model.
Additionally, the costs associated with maintaining a full in-house production team
can be high, which can limit the company's ability to invest in other areas of the
business.
The crowdsourcing model and the in-house production model are two different
approaches to creating products or services. The main difference between these two
models is the level of collaboration involved in the production process.
In summary, the crowdsourcing model and the in-house production model are two
different approaches to creating products or services, each with its own advantages
and disadvantages. The choice of production model depends on the specific needs
and goals of the company or organization involved.
c. Can Crowdsourcing produce Digital services of the same quality as the In-house
Production Model?
Crowdsourcing can potentially produce digital services of the same quality as in-
house production models, but this will depend on a variety of factors such as the
complexity of the service, the quality of the crowd's skills and experience, and the
management and coordination of the crowd.
To ensure the quality of products and services, the crowdsourcing model needs to
have quality control processes and safety measures in place. Manufacturers and
suppliers need to have regulations and standards to ensure that products and services
meet the established quality standards.
In addition, the outsourcing model needs support from the community to ensure
sustainable operations. This may include ensuring funding sources for manufacturers
and suppliers to operate, providing training and support to improve the quality of
products and services, and creating consensus and support from the community.
Another example is TopCV, a platform that offers resume and career advice services
to job seekers. The platform utilizes a crowd of experienced professionals to provide
feedback and advice on resumes and cover letters, and has helped many job seekers
in Vietnam to improve their chances of finding employment.
While these examples suggest that crowdsourcing can produce high-quality digital
services in Vietnam, it's important to note that the success of crowdsourcing
initiatives will depend on a variety of factors, such as the quality of the crowd, the
management and coordination of the crowd, and the nature of the service being
produced.
