12 Strategic Analysis of the Environment Prof Chris Birch

13 THREAT of new entrants Bargaining Power of suppliers CompeAAve Environment Bargaining Power of buyers THREAT of substitutes

14 Porter's 5 Forces analysis deals with factors outside an industry that influence the nature of compeaaon within it, the forces inside the industry (microenvironment) that influence the way in which firms compete, and so the industry s likely profitability is conducted in Porter s five forces model. A business has to understand the dynamics of its industries and markets in order to compete effec?vely in the marketplace. Porter (1980a) defined the forces which drive compeaaon, contending that the compe??ve environment is created by the interac?on of five different forces ac?ng on a business. In addiaon to rivalry among exisang firms and the threat of new entrants into the market, there are also the forces of supplier power, the power of the buyers, and the threat of subsatute products or services. Porter suggested that the intensity of compeaaon is determined by the relaave strengths of these forces.

15 Main Aspects of Porter s Five Forces Analysis The original compeaave forces model, as proposed by Porter, idenafied five forces which would impact on an organizaaon s behaviour in a compeaave market. These include the following: The rivalry between exisang sellers in the market. The power exerted by the customers in the market. The impact of the suppliers on the sellers. The potenaal threat of new sellers entering the market. The threat of subsatute products becoming available in the market.

16 Considerations of Porter s theory It is important to be aware that this model has further limitaaons in today's market environment; as it assumes relaavely staac market structures. Based originally on the economic situaaon in the eighaes with its strong compeaaon and relaavely stable market structures, it is not able to take into account new business models and the dynamism of the industries, such as technological innovaaons and dynamic market entrants from start- ups that will completely change business models within short Ames. For instance, the computer and sotware industry is oten considered as being highly compeaave. The industry structure is constantly being revoluaonized by innovaaon that indicates Five Forces model being of limited value since it represents no more than snapshots of a moving picture. Therefore, it is not advisable to develop a strategy solely on the basis of Porter s models (Kippenberger, 1998; Haberberg and Rieple, 2001), but to examine it in addi?on to other strategic frameworks of SWOT and PEST analysis. h\p://university- essays.tripod.com/porters_5_forces_analysis.html

18 Strategic Analysis of the External Environment PEESTLE Prof Chris Birch

19 PEESTL analysis P PoliAcal E Economic E Ecological S Social T Technological L - Legal Defini?on of environmental analysis (business dic?onary.com) EvaluaAon of the possible or probable effects of external forces and condiaons on an organizaaon's survival and growth strategies. h\p:// intelligence.co.uk/help/q&a/quesaon14.htm h\p:// mgmt_strategic_environmental_analysis.html

20 All businesses and organisaaons operate in a changing world and are subject to forces which are more powerful than they are, and which are beyond their control. No business can survive without con?nued interac?on with the external environment, just as a ship at sea is subject to powerful natural forces of which it needs to be aware and deal with, organisaaons are influenced by forces in their external business environment. Any business strategy needs to take account of all these forces so that opportuniaes and threats can be idenafied and the organisaaon can navigate its way to success by matching its internal strengths to external opportuniaes. h\p://wiki.answers.com/q/ External_business_environment_analysis#ixzz1CXjIH32n
