Industry Reports and Analysis
Industry Analysis is the basis of intelligent strategic planning. It's a
systematic process of gathering and analyzing, information about our industry on a global
and domestic basis. Factors include economics, trends, social and political factors, and
changes in technology, and the rate of change.
In most cases, an industry may be thought of as a collective of firms who sell like
products to a like group of customers with similar needs.
In terms of Strategic Planning, the more knowledge you have about your industry determines
the value or worth of the goals you set. Your knowledge of the industry is crucial to the
development of intelligent strategies used to pursue those goals.
We need a good perspective about the various product classifications or service categories
as they relate to our industry. We also need to recognize real and possible product
substitutes. Finally, we need knowledge about existing and potential competitors.
In terms of competition, Industry Analysis helps us determine the true areas in which our
firm competes. It defines what we consider to be competition, and it helps us determine
key factors for success as we pursue various opportunities.
Industry Analysis provides a basis upon which we evaluate and decide about our corporate
goals and it helps us develop insight into developing appropriate strategies.
Industry Analysis helps us identify and recognize forces that shape our industry. We need
look at the dynamics of the industry and envision how the industry will look in the
future. We need to look at the possibility that new competitors will surface. We need to
recognize that our suppliers may establish a collective strength and raise prices. We need
to look at customers and trends that might be developing.
We need to review our products, ask why customers buy, and then look forward to see how a
customer's needs might be met in the future through new technologies. We need to look at
how the industry is changing in terms of competition, and the competitive forces likely to
change our industry.
At the most basic level, our purpose for being in business is to capitalize on one or more
opportunities. In order to pursue such opportunities, we set in motion various goals and
objectives designed to capture a profit. However, few opportunities come without risks. As
such, we need to look at our current and future circumstances to determine if any threats
exist from our competitors, suppliers, government, or customers, and figure out how
various situations might affect us.
As often as we set goals and plot strategies, we need to evaluate our own strengths and
weaknesses. Moreover, if we fail to evaluate our strengths and weaknesses prior to
executing various stratagems, we run the risk of failure.
A good analysis of the industry helps to identify the information on a global and domestic
scale. It is also necessary planning tool for developing solid strategies. We need good
foundation of information in order to weed out false assumptions.
The reason for Analyzing the industry is a means to construct a foundation of facts rather
than assumptions upon which a solid strategy may be built.
In order to determine a sustainable strategy to compete, it is necessary to systematically
gather and classify information about the industry and assemble it into a useful format.
The best outcome resulting from Industry Analysis a strong and viable strategy based upon
a thorough understanding of the industry and the competition. Without this understanding,
it is very difficult to develop sustainable strategies or take advantage of niche
opportunities.
