4 Internal Environment: SWOT Model StrengthsWeaknesses OpportunitiesThreats

5 Task/Micro Environment: Porter’s 5 Forces Model Bargaining Power of Suppliers Threat of Entry Threat of Substitutes Bargaining Power of Buyers Intensity of Rivalry

6 Threat of Entry Barriers to entry – factors that might make it costly for potential competitors to enter an industry and compete with firms already in the industry Economies of scale – cost reduction associated with large output Brand loyalty – the preference of consumers for the products of established companies

7 Power of Buyers Buyers are most powerful when:  They are few in number and purchase large quantities  They can choose between equivalent products from many different firms  They can switch easily between the offerings of different firms Buyers are least powerful when:  They are plentiful and purchase in small quantities  They have little choice  They cannot switch easily between the offerings of different firms

8 Power of Suppliers A firm has greater power over suppliers when:  The firm purchases in large quantities  It can choose between multiple suppliers  The costs of switching between suppliers is low  The firm is not dependant on any single supplier for important inputs

9 Threat of Substitutes The goods or services of different businesses or industries that can satisfy similar customer needs The existence of substitutes is a strong competitive threat because it limits the price that companies in one store can change If there are few substitutes, firms have the opportunity to raise prices

10 Intensity of Rivalry The nature of the product  The intensity of rivalry depends on how close the product is to a commodity (a product that is difficult to differentiate from those produced by rivals). Demand and supply conditions  If demand is growing the industry will appear favorable.  Demand trends are influenced by economic growth & rising income levels
