The Bargaining Power of Buyers
• Buyers threaten an industry by: Forcing down prices Bargaining for higher quality or more services Playing competitors against each other
2-24
![Page 25: chap 2 dess strategic management slide](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050809/55cf93f6550346f57b9eeb0a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
The Bargaining Power of Buyers• A buyer group is powerful when
It is concentrated or purchases large volumes relative to seller sales
The products it purchases from the industry are standard or undifferentiated
The buyer faces few switching costs It earns low profits The buyers pose a credible threat of backward
integration The industry’s product is unimportant to the
quality of the buyer’s products or services
2-25
![Page 26: chap 2 dess strategic management slide](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050809/55cf93f6550346f57b9eeb0a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

The Bargaining Power of Suppliers
• A supplier group will be powerful when The supplier group is dominated by a few
companies and is more concentrated than the industry it sells to

The industry is not an important customer of the supplier group

The Bargaining Power of Suppliers
• A supplier group will be powerful when (cont.) The supplier’s product is an important input
to the buyer’s business The supplier group’s products are
differentiated or it has built up switching costs for the buyer
The supplier group poses a credible threat of forward integration
2-28

strategies
• Implicitly assumes a zero-sum game, determining how a firm can enhance its position relative to the forces
• Five Forces analysis is essentially a static analysis
2-33

Using Industry Analysis: A Few Caveats (cont.)
• Good industry analysis looks rigorously at the structural underpinnings of profitability. A first step is to understand the time horizon
• The point of industry analysis is not to declare the industry attractive or unattractive but to understand the underpinnings of competition and the root causes of profitability.

Strategic Groups within Industries
• Two unassailable assumptions in industry analysis No two firms are totally different No two firms are exactly the same
• Strategic groups• Cluster of firms that share similar strategies
Breadth of product and geographic scope Price/quality Degree of vertical integration Type of distribution system
2-36
![Page 37: chap 2 dess strategic management slide](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050809/55cf93f6550346f57b9eeb0a/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Strategic Groups within Industries
• Value of strategic groups as an analytical tool Identify barriers to mobility that protect a group from
attacks by other groups Identify groups whose competitive position may be
marginal or tenuous Chart the future direction of firms’ strategies Thinking through the implications of each industry
trend for the strategic group as a whole
