Extended Description

For example, depending on the size of the operations, there might be slight variations to the common process. Below is an adapted simplified variation for an Asian Operator. As operations mature, one can expect it to converge to the process described in Figure 3. That said, it is not always converging in a straight line. Business Party maturity, culture, operational limitations, competitive climate causes minor variations on the actual implemented process. This evolving process(es) require deviations from the norm. Over time, as business reach grows, however, the outcomes converge to a similar result (Figure 3), as larger global business forces compliant behavior.
