Title: Analyzing the Industry Environment


1
Analyzing the Industry Environment
OUTLINE
  • The objectives of industry analysis
  • From environmental analysis to industry analysis
  • Porters Five Forces Framework
  • Applying industry analysis
  • Industry market boundaries
  • Extending the Five Forces Framework
  • --Complements, Dynamics, The New Economy
  • Identifying Key Success Factors

2
The Objectives of Industry Analysis
  • To understand how industry structure drives
    competition, which determines the level of
    industry profitability.
  • To assess industry attractiveness
  • To use evidence on changes in industry structure
    to forecast future profitability
  • To identify opportunities to change industry
    structure to impose industry profitability
  • To identify Key Success Factors

3
From Environmental Analysis to Industry Analysis
The natural environment
The national/ international economy
  • THE INDUSTRY
  • ENVIRONMENT
  • Suppliers
  • Competitors
  • Customers

Demographic structure
Technology
Government Politics
Social structure
Social structure
  • The Industry Environment lies at the core of the
    Macro Environment.
  • The Macro Environment impacts the firm through
    its effect on the Industry
  • Environment.

6
The Determinants of Industry Profitability
3 key influences
  • The value of the product to customers
  • The intensity of competition
  • Relative bargaining power at different levels
    within the value chain.

7
The Spectrum of Industry Structures
Perfect Competition
Oligopoly
Duopoly
Monopoly
Concentration
Many firms
A few firms
Two firms
One firm
Entry and Exit Barriers
No barriers
Significant barriers
High barriers
Product Differentiation
Homogeneous Product
Potential for product differentiation
Information
Perfect Information flow
Imperfect availability of information

Bargaining power of suppliers

Threat of substitutes
Threat of new entrants
POTENTIAL ENTRANTS
SUBSTITUTES
Rivalry among existing firms
Bargaining power of buyers
BUYERS
9
Threat of Substitutes
  • Extent of competitive pressure from producers of
  • substitutes depends upon
  • Buyers propensity to substitute
  • The price-performance characteristics of
    substitutes.

10
The Threat of Entry
  • Entrants threat to industry profitability
    depends upon the height of barriers to entry. The
    principal sources of barriers to entry are
  • Capital requirements
  • Economies of scale
  • Absolute cost advantage
  • Product differentiation
  • Access to channels of distribution
  • Legal and regulatory barriers
  • Retaliation

11
Bargaining Power of Buyers
Buyers price sensitivity
Relative bargaining power
  • Cost of purchases as
  • of buyers total costs.
  • How differentiated is the
  • purchased item?
  • How intense is
  • competition between
  • buyers?
  • How important is the
  • item to quality of the
  • buyers own output?
  • Size and concentration of
  • buyers relative to
  • sellers.
  • Buyers information .
  • Ability to backward
  • integrate.

Note analysis of supplier power is symmetric
12
Rivalry Between Established Competitors
  • The extent to which industry profitability is
    depressed by aggressive price competition depends
    upon
  • Concentration (number and size distribution of
    firms)
  • Diversity of competitors (differences in goals,
    cost structure, etc.)
  • Product differentiation
  • Excess capacity and exit barriers
  • Cost conditions
  • Extent of scale economies
  • Ratio of fixed to variable costs

Applying Five - Forces Analysis
  • Forecasting Industry Profitability
  • Past profitability a poor indicator of future
    profitability.
  • If we can forecast changes in industry structure
    we can predict likely impact on competition and
    profitability.
  • Strategies to Improve Industry Profitability
  • What structural variables are depressing
    profitability
  • Which can be changed by individual or collective
    strategies?

17
Drawing Industry Boundaries Identifying the
Relevant Market
  • What industry is BMW in
  • World Auto industry
  • European Auto industry
  • World luxury car industry?
  • Key criterion SUBSTITUTABILITY
  • On the demand side are buyers willing to
    substitute between types of cars and across
    countries
  • On the supply side are manufacturers able to
    switch production between types of cars and
    across countries
  • May need to analyze industry at different levels
    for different types of decision

Dynamic Competition
  • Porter framework assumes
  • industry structure drives competitive behavior
  • Industry structure is stable.
  • But---competition also changes industry structure
  • Schumpeterian Competition A perennial
  • gale of creative destruction where innovation
    overthrows established market leaders
  • Hypercompetition intense and rapid
    competitive moves.creating disequilibrium
    through continuously creating new competitive
    advantages and destroying, obsoleting or
    neutralizing opponents competitive advantages

21
Applying Five Forces to Emerging E-commerce
Markets
  • The more unstable is industry structurethe less
  • helpful is analysis based upon industry
    structure.
  • Taking account of timewillingness to endure
    losses
  • today in order to reap profit tomorrow
  • General structural features of digital,
    networked
  • industries
  • Low entry barriers Extreme scale economies
  • Network externalities Winner-take-all markets
  • Intense competition

22
Identifying Key Success Factors
  • Pre-requisites for
    success

Pre-requisites for success
What do customers want?
How does the firm survive competition
  • Analysis of competition
  • What drives competition?
  • What are the main dimensions of
    competition?
  • How intense is competition?
  • How can we obtain a superior competitive position?
  • Analysis of demand
  • Who are our
  • customers?
  • What do they want?
  • What drives competition?
  • What are the main
  • dimensions of competition?
  • How intense is competition?
  • How can we obtain a
  • superior competitive position?

SUMMARY What Have We Learned?
  • Forecasting Industry Profitability
  • Past profitability a poor indicator of future
    profitability.
  • If we can forecast changes in industry structure
    we can predict likely impact on competition and
    profitability.
  • Strategies to Improve Industry Profitability
  • What structural variables are depressing
    profitability?
  • Which can be changed by individual or collective
    strategies?
  • Defining Industry Boundaries
  • Key criterion substitution
  • Working at different levels of aggregation

SUMMARY (continued)
  • Game Theory
  • Valuable in analyzing competitive rivalry between
    small number of players
  • Analysis of cooperation competition
  • Offers insights into the structure of the game
    competitive interaction use of specific
    strategic plays.
  • Key Success Factors
  • Starting point for the analysis of competitive
    advantage
  • Industry Analysis The New Economy
  • Porter 5 forces analysis less useful when
    industry structure unstable
  • Key to understanding digital, networked markets
    is to understand their underlying structure (esp.
    scale economies and network externalities)
