1 Industry Analysis - Porter's Five Forces
Dr Bryan Mills 1

2 Components of the General Environment
macro industry competitors you! 10

3 Market Research Mission Skills Audit SW OT Gap Analysis PESTEL

4 PESTEL Political Economic Social Technological Environmental Legal

5 Don’t knock SWOT! It’s the starting point
an overview of the strategic situation. raw material for more extensive internal and external analysis.

6 Opportunities Possible Opportunities: Emerging customer needs ANSOFF
Quality Improvements PLC? Vertical differentiation Expanding global markets ANSOFF Vertical Integration M&A

7 Threats Possible Threats: New entry by competitors 5 forces
Changing demographics/shifting demand market research Emergence of cheaper technologies 5 forces Regulatory requirements

8 The purpose of Five-Forces Analysis
The five forces are environmental forces that impact on a company’s ability to compete in a given market. The purpose of five-forces analysis is to diagnose the principal competitive pressures in a market and assess how strong and important each one is.

9 Porter’s Five Forces Threat of New Entrants Bring new capacity,
the desire to gain market share, and often substantial resources. Companies diversifying through acquisition into the industry from other markets often leverage their resources to cause a shakeup Michael E. Porter, “How Competitive Forces Shape Strategy,” Harvard Business Review 1979 (pp ) 11

10 Threat of New Entrants Economies of Scale Product Differentiation
Government Policy Economies of Scale Product Differentiation Capital Requirements Switching Costs Access to Distribution Channels Cost Disadvantages Independent of Scale Barriers to Entry 12

11 Bargaining Power of Suppliers
Porter’s Five Forces Threat of New Entrants Bargaining Power of Suppliers 14

12 Bargaining Power of Suppliers
Supplier industry is dominated by a few firms Suppliers’ products have few substitutes Buyer is not an important customer to supplier Suppliers’ product is an important input to buyers’ product Suppliers’ products are differentiated Suppliers’ products have high switching costs Supplier poses credible threat of forward integration Suppliers exert power in the industry by: * Threatening to raise prices or to reduce quality 15

13 Bargaining Power of Buyers
Porter’s Five Forces Threat of New Entrants Bargaining Power of Suppliers Bargaining Power of Buyers 17

14 Bargaining Power of Buyers
Buyer groups are likely to be powerful if: Buyers are concentrated or purchases are large relative to seller’s sales Purchase accounts for a significant fraction of supplier’s sales Products are undifferentiated Buyers face few switching costs Buyers’ industry earns low profits Buyer presents a credible threat of backward integration Product unimportant to quality Buyer has full information Bargaining down prices Forcing higher quality Playing firms off of each other 18

15 Bargaining Power of Suppliers Bargaining Power of Buyers
Porter’s Five Forces Model of Competition Threat of New Entrants Threat of New Entrants Bargaining Power of Suppliers Bargaining Power of Buyers Threat of Substitute Products 20

16 Threat of Substitute Products
By placing a ceiling on prices it can charge, substitute products or services limit the potential of an industry. Unless it can upgrade the quality of the product or differentiate it somehow (as via marketing), the industry will suffer in earnings and possibly in growth Products with similar function limit the prices firms can charge 21

17 Bargaining Power of Suppliers
Porter’s Five Forces Model of Competition Threat of New Entrants Threat of New Entrants Bargaining Power of Suppliers Rivalry Among Competing Firms in Industry Bargaining Power of Buyers Threat of Substitute Products 23

18 Rivalry Among Existing Competitors
Intense rivalry often plays out in the following ways: Jockeying for strategic position Using price competition Staging advertising battles Making new product introductions Increasing consumer warranties or service Occurs when a firm is pressured or sees an opportunity Price competition often leaves the entire industry worse off Advertising battles may increase total industry demand, but may be costly to smaller competitors 25

19 Rivalry Among Existing Competitors
Cutthroat competition is more likely to occur when: Numerous or equally balanced competitors Slow growth industry High fixed costs Lack of differentiation or switching costs High storage costs Capacity added in large increments High strategic stakes High exit barriers Diverse competitors 26

20 The Five Forces are Unique to the Industry
Five-Forces Analysis is a framework for analyzing a particular industry.

21 After industry analysis we need analysis of a firm’s Competitors
Competitor Analysis After industry analysis we need analysis of a firm’s Competitors Competitive Environment Industry Environment 33

22 Competitor Analysis Response Assumptions
What assumptions do our competitors hold about the future of industry and themselves? Response What will our competitors do in the future? Current Strategy Does our current strategy support changes in the competitive environment? Where do we have a competitive advantage? Future Objectives How do our goals compare to our competitors’ goals? How will this change our relationship with our competition? Capabilities How do our capabilities compare to our competitors? 38

23 Competitor Analysis Future Objectives What Drives the competitor?
How do our goals compare to our competitors’ goals? Where will emphasis be placed in the future? What is the attitude toward risk? 34

24 Competitor Analysis Future Objectives Current Strategy
What is the competitor doing? How do our goals compare to our competitors’ goals? What can the competitor do? Current Strategy Where will emphasis be placed in the future? How are we currently competing? What is the attitude toward risk? Does this strategy support changes in the competitive structure? 35

25 Competitor Analysis Future Objectives Current Strategy Assumptions
How do our goals compare to our competitors’ goals? Where will emphasis be placed in the future? What is the attitude toward risk? What does the competitor believe about itself and the industry? Current Strategy How are we currently competing? Does this strategy support changes in the competition structure? Assumptions Do we assume the future will be volatile? What assumptions do our competitors hold about the industry and themselves? Are we assuming stable competitive conditions? 36

26 Competitor Analysis Future Objectives Current Strategy Assumptions
How do our goals compare to our competitors’ goals? Where will emphasis be placed in the future? What is the attitude toward risk? What are the competitor’s capabilities? Current Strategy How are we currently competing? Does this strategy support changes in the competition structure? Do we assume the future will be volatile? Are we operating under a status quo? What assumptions do our competitors hold about the industry and themselves? Assumptions Capabilities What are my competitors’ strengths and weaknesses? How do our capabilities compare to our competitors? 37

27 Competitor Analysis Future Objectives Response Current Strategy
How do our goals compare to our competitors’ goals? Where will emphasis be placed in the future? What is the attitude toward risk? Response What will our competitors do in the future? Current Strategy How are we currently competing? Does this strategy support changes in the competition structure? Where do we have a competitive advantage? Do we assume the future will be volatile? Are we operating under a status quo? What assumptions do our competitors hold about the industry and themselves? Assumptions How will this change our relationship with our competition? Capabilities What are my competitors’ strengths and weaknesses? How do our capabilities compare to our competitors? 38
