SWOT Analysis 5 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
6 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
SWOT Analysis is the most renowned tool for audit and analysis of the overall strategic position of the business and its environment. Its key purpose is to identify the strategies that will create a firm specific business model that will best align an organization’s resources and capabilities to the requirements of the environment in which the firm operates. 7 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
Strengths - Strengths are the qualities that enable us to accomplish the organization’s mission. These are the basis on which continued success can be made and continued/sustained. Strengths can be either tangible or intangible. These are what you are well-versed in or what you have expertise in, the traits and qualities your employees possess (individually and as a team) and the distinct features that give your organization its consistency. Strengths are the beneficial aspects of the organization or the capabilities of an organization, which includes human competencies, process capabilities, financial resources, products and services, customer goodwill and brand loyalty. Examples of organizational strengths are huge financial resources, broad product line, no debt, committed employees, etc. 8 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
Weaknesses - Weaknesses are the qualities that prevent us from accomplishing our mission and achieving our full potential. These weaknesses deteriorate influences on the organizational success and growth. Weaknesses are the factors which do not meet the standards we feel they should meet. Weaknesses in an organization may be depreciating machinery, insufficient research and development facilities, narrow product range, poor decision-making, etc. Weaknesses are controllable. They must be minimized and eliminated. For instance - to overcome obsolete machinery, new machinery can be purchased. Other examples of organizational weaknesses are huge debts, high employee turnover, complex decision making process, narrow product range, large wastage of raw materials, etc. 9 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
Opportunities - Opportunities are presented by the environment within which our organization operates. These arise when an organization can take benefit of conditions in its environment to plan and execute strategies that enable it to become more profitable. Organizations can gain competitive advantage by making use of opportunities. Organization should be careful and recognize the opportunities and grasp them whenever they arise. Selecting the targets that will best serve the clients while getting desired results is a difficult task. Opportunities may arise from market, competition, industry/government and technology. Increasing demand for telecommunications accompanied by deregulation is a great opportunity for new firms to enter telecom sector and compete with existing firms for revenue. 10 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
Threats - Threats arise when conditions in external environment jeopardize the reliability and profitability of the organization’s business. They compound the vulnerability when they relate to the weaknesses. Threats are uncontrollable. When a threat comes, the stability and survival can be at stake. Examples of threats are - unrest among employees; ever changing technology; increasing competition leading to excess capacity, price wars and reducing industry profits; etc. 11 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma

BCG Matrix 13 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
14 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
15 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
The horizontal axis of the BCG Matrix represents the amount of market share of a product and its strength in the market. By using relative market share, it helps measure a company’s competitiveness. The vertical axis of the BCG Matrix represents the growth rate of a product and its potential to grow in a particular market. In addition, there are four quadrants in the BCG Matrix: Question marks : Products with high market growth but a low market share. Stars : Products with high market growth and a high market share. Dogs : Products with low market growth and a low market share. Cash cows : Products with low market growth but a high market share. 16 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
The BCG Matrix: Question Marks Products in the question marks quadrant are in a market that is growing quickly but where the product(s) have a low market share. Question marks are the most managerially intensive products and require extensive investment and resources to increase their market share. Investments in question marks are typically funded by cash flows from the cash cow quadrant. In the best-case scenario, a firm would ideally want to turn question marks into stars (as indicated by A). If question marks fail in becoming a market leader, they end up becoming dogs when market growth declines. 17 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
The BCG Matrix: Dogs 18 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
The BCG Matrix: Stars 19 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
The BCG Matrix: Cash Cows Products in the cash cows quadrant are in a market that is growing slowly and where the product(s) have a high market share. Products in the cash cows quadrant are thought of as products that are leaders in the marketplace. The products already have a significant amount of investments in them and do not require significant further investments to maintain their position. Cash flows generated by cash cows are high and are generally used to finance stars and question marks. Products in the cash cows quadrant are “milked” and firms invest as little cash as possible while reaping the profits generated from the products. https://corporatefinanceinstitute.com/resources/management/boston-consulting-group-bcg-matrix/ 20 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
GE Nine Cell Matrix 21 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
The GE matrix was developed by Mckinsey and Company consultancy group in the 1970s. The nine cell grid measures business unit strength against industry attractiveness and this is the key difference. Whereas BCG is limited to products, business units can be products, whole product lines, a service or even a brand. You can plot these chosen units on the grid and this will help you to determine which strategy to apply. 22 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
The GE/McKinsey Matrix is a nine-cell (3 by 3) matrix used to perform business portfolio analysis as a step in the strategic planning process. The GE/McKinsey Matrix identifies the optimum business portfolio as one that fits perfectly to the company’s strengths and helps to explore the most attractive industry sectors or markets. The objective of the analysis is to position each SBU on the chart depending on the SBU’s Strength and the Attractiveness of the Industry Sector or Market on which it is Each axis is divided into Low, Medium and High, giving the nine-cell matrix as depicted below. 23 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
Different factors can be used to define Industry Attractiveness. Like:-Market Size, Market Growth Rate, Demand variability, Industry Profitability, Competitive Rivalry, Global Opportunities, Entry and exit barriers, Capital requirement, Macro environmental Factors (PEST) Different factors can also be used to define SBU Strength. Like:- Market Share, Distribution Channel Access, Financial Resources, R&D Capability, Brand equity, Production Capacity, Knowledge of customer and market, Caliber of management.

GROW, HOLD, HARVEST Grow – Business units that fall under grow attract high investment. Firms may go for product differentiation or Cost leadership. Huge cash is generated in this phase. Market leaders exist in this phase. Hold – Business units that fall under hold phase attract moderate investment. Market segmentation, Market penetration, imitation strategies are adopted in this phase. Followers exist in this phase. Harvest – Business units that fall under this phase are unattractive. Low priority is given in these business units. Strategies like divestment, Diversification, mergers are adopted in this phase. https://noteswa.in/ge-9-cell-matrix/comment-page-91/ 26 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
27 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
The objective of this matrix is to assess the industry attractiveness and competitive strength of strategic business units. Factors affecting the industry attractiveness are market growth rate, market size, demand variability, market profitability etc and all these factors are external to the organization. Internal factors such as assets, competencies, brand strength, profit margins and quality etc make a competitive strength or business strength of organization. 28 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
Patanjali’s Dantkanti , Honey and Ghee operate in the green segment giving the organization opportunities to go ahead and grow & build the product. The green zone pushes an organization for expansion strategies. Patanjali’s Candy, Fruit juice, and medicines takes place in yellow category signifying that brand should hold the product for some time and makes necessary developments. The yellow area suggests making strategies aimed at maintaining stability. Patanjali’s Home care category like agarbatti , dish wash bar etc comes under red area due to the presence of other strong competitors. The red segment signifies that company should start harvesting the brand. Brand harvesting means maximizing your profit by reducing your expenditure on brand due to its decline phase in product life cycle.

Hofer’s Matrix 30 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
The Hofer Matrix is a tool to determine a company's competitive position by identifying internal and external factors. It is often used for business portfolio analysis, which is very similar to BCG and McKinsey GE Matrix. You can use this matrix when an organization wants to know which product(s) to put resources into. It can be used effectively to balance a company's product portfolio. 31 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
Charles Hoffer proposed a 3 x 5 matrix in which businesses are plotted in terms of product/market evolution and competitive position. Thus Hofer’s product-market evolution model is a 15 cell matrix of a firm’s business. Hoffer's product market evolution matrix adds additional cells to the display of market evolution and business position and uses a finer grid. The relative size of the industry is shown in circles, and the shadow of the business’s market share is shown in this template. 32 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
Matrix is created based on two criteria: the maturity of the product in the industry sector, divided into 5 phases and the competitive position of companies in that industry sector into 3 phases. This circles are placed in the appropriate cell, where represent different areas of activity in the company, and the size of the circle is proportional to size of the sector. Sometimes segments could be added to the circle, which reflect the market share of company in the sector. 33 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
Hofer’s matrix reflects the stage of development of the product or market. Business units are placed on a grid showing their stage of product-market evolution and their competitive position. Circles represent the industry and the pie wedges represent the market share of the business unit. Hoffers evolution matrix are useful to develop strategies that are appropriate at different stages of the product life cycle. 34 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
35 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
In Hofer’s matrix, the vertical axis represents the stages of product-market evolution and horizontal axis represents the SBU’s competitive position. In this matrix, three stages of competitive position of SBU (viz., strong, average and week) are shown on horizontal axis. The vertical axis shows the industry’s state in the evolutionary life cycle, starting with initial development and passing through the growth, competitive shake-out, maturity, saturation and decline stages. https://www.businessmanagementideas.com/strategic-management/business-portfolio-analysis-matrix-strategic-management/18787 36 Dr Vijay Vishwakarma
Importance and Problems of Strategic Implementation Dr Vijay Vishwakarma 37
Strategy implementation is the process of making your strategic planning come to life . This is where you take the goals you’ve laid out and turn them into actions that move the needle in your business. Strategy implementation aims to get your employees, partners, and vendors on board with the new plan and ensure everyone has the necessary skills to make it happen. Dr Vijay Vishwakarma 38
