I JUST WANT TO ASK THAT HOW WILL WE USE USE ORGANIC,ACQUISITION, AND OTHER METHODS OF STRATEGIC ALLIANCES IN MARKET PENETRATION? IN COST LEADERSHIP,DIFFERENTIATION AND FOCUS DIFFRENTIATION.
I HAVE ANOTHER QUESTION.I MOSTLY USE STRENGTH AND WEAKNESSES FOR INTERNAL AND PORTER 5 FORCES AND PESTEL FOR EXTERNAL ANALYSIS… EXAMINER MOSTLY USES VALUE CHAIN AND 6 M’S FOR INTERNAL ANALYSIS…SO KINDLY GUIDE ME? IM MORE COMFORTABLE WITH THE STRENGTH AND WEAKNESSES RATHER THAN THE OTHER 2 MODELS DESCRIBED ABOVE.
June 8, 2014 at 5:17 pm #175239Penetration = increase market share. It seems pretty obvious how that could be done by either organic expansion or a takeover.
As for cost leadership, usually the bigger the company lower the cost/unit. Differentiation/focus could be helped by taking over a specialist company.
Value chain and 6Ms re just ways of generating strengths and weaknesses. The approaches are not mutually exclusive.

June 8, 2014 at 10:10 pm #175283I’m not sure if I understand your question or answering correctly but my understanding is that the change in question is the change from SteelTown City Council having an internal IT department to one being outsourced to a private sector company. As such, the question is asking for the influence of 4 of the 8 contextual features of change as it relates to this strategic change being implemented.
