Distributive Enterprise

Introduction

A distributive enterprise is a transparent enterprise which maintains the open replication of such an enterprise by others at the core of its operational strategy. The goal is to create an economic system that promotes not only production, but also, distribution. The goal is to address the issue of artificial material scarcity, as related both to peoples' lifestyles and to global geopolitics. For transparency regarding the usefulness and purpose of its products, a distributive enterprise clouch an enterprise ses the product development cycle from concept to usage - by dogfooding its own products.

Open Source Ecology Case

Such an enterprise follows OSE Specifications for Distributive Economics, and focuses on production optimization as its key to economic significance and to scalability. This means that the enterprise, in its essential design, has a mechanisms for continuously optimizing design, documenting its process and results, and training producers for enterprise replication. Factor e Farm is an example of a facility that performs all of these functions. We are currently developing a practical training option - where fabricators-in-training help in production runs in exchange for our training. Our goal is to assist in the global transition beyond artificial material scarcity, such that human cultural and scientific advancement is unleashed within the context of Economy 2.0.

In summary, a Distributive Enterprise

1. Is open source
2. Distributes its business model openly
3. Dogfoods its products
4. Addresses pressing world issues by removing artificial material scarcity

Note

Our preferred business model is collaborative development of product design, whereby each participant can gain benefit from such collaboration by engaging in real production. The goal is that we truly remove material constraintsfrom determining the well-being of humans, as production is no longer an issue of control and power.

The simple numbers are to demonstrate clearly that the power of such a distributive enterprise is easily $100k/person/year, whether in Missouri or Gabon. We are well on our way to demonstrating this in practice at Factor e Farm.
