The Five Forces Framework and Competitive Strategy In this framework due to Michael Porter there are two high-level stages in the creation of competitive strategy‚ each stage corresponding to a high-level determinant of profitability mentioned in the previous section. The first stage is the assessment of the attractiveness of the industry in which a given company is embedded based on a structural analysis of the industry. In this stage‚ called the five forces framework‚ five forces that influence

After completing the free body diagram‚ enter below each force and its x & y-components. Remember that the x-component is the "i" component and the y-component is the "j" component.

“The Five Forces helped me” Some readers complained that in criticizing the Five Forces analysis I was trashing something that they had found useful. I am glad to hear that some people have found help from Porter’s five-forces model. It is however a bit like saying that we had success for over a thousand years in predicting the movements of the planets with the geocentric model of the universe‚ so why should we accept that the earth revolves around the sun? There are ways to reinterpret Porter’s

HYDROSTATIC FORCE (EXPERIMENT 1) INTRODUCTION The determination of force which are exerted by liquid which are at rest on surface immersed in liquids. From the study by hydrostatic‚ the following principles have been established : a) There are no shear stress present when the fluid is not in motion. b) The pressure exerted by a fluid under hydrostatic conditions. This pressure acts perpendicular to an immersed surface. c) Hydrostatic pressure various linearly‚ increasing with an

Summary: Experiment 9 is conducted to identify the importance of intermolecular forces and how they affect molecules. Intermolecular forces are forces between molecules that determine whether the molecule is a solid‚ liquid‚ or gas under standard conditions. In our lab‚ we measured the maximum and minimum temperature reached and time it took to reach it of alcohols and alkanes. In addition‚ we measured the vapor pressure of the liquid at different temperatures. Through Experiment 9‚ we concluded

Porter’s Five Forces Analysis Diagram 1 Porter’s five forces model (source from Business Resource Software‚ Inc.) The Porter’s five forces model will be used to evaluate information system and automobile industries. Determinants of Entry By entering into car manufacturing market is very costly and risky as the initial costs required a large capital investment on technologies‚ economics of scale and accessibility to distribution channels has restricted the entry of new entrant to the industry

Natural Forces A natural force is a power brought on by nature. Natural forces‚ unlike those of other powers‚ are uncontrollable. When a hurricane passes along the coast‚ a bolt of lightning strikes a rooftop‚ and a volcano erupts‚ these are all examples of natural forces. Natural forces can have devastating effects on wildlife‚ humans‚ and the earth itself. Our effects to resist these occurrences‚ our only way to cope with such devastating forces of nature are to observe‚ learn‚ and prepare

FORCE AND MOTION Scalars vs. Vectors Scalars | Vectors | A scalar quantity has only magnitude. | A vector quantity has both magnitude and direction. | Scalars can be added‚ subtracted‚ multiplied and divided just as ordinary numbers‚ i.e.‚ scalars are subjected to simple arithmetic operations. | Vectors cannot be added‚ subtracted and multiplied following simple arithmetic laws. Arithmetic division of vectors is not possible at all. | Example: mass‚ volume‚ time‚ distance‚ speed‚ work‚ temperature
