The external analysis of the firm, which describes the industry context in which the<br \/>\nfirm competes. A thorough external analysis will first address the general environment<br \/>\nunder study. Second, it will look at the industry dynamics and competitive market (e.g.,<br \/>\nwho are the firms selling to, what challenges do the firms face in profitably reaching their<br \/>\ncustomers). Next, the analysis should discuss the firm\u2019s competitors\u2014are they larger,<br \/>\nsmaller, more profitable, more flexible? What overall advantage or disadvantage would<br \/>\nthese competitors have in the marketplace? The 5-forces Porter\u2019s model is a good tool to<br \/>\norganize your work when defining the competitive environment.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">2. The internal analysis of the firm (and the partner or competitor) describes the strengths<br \/>\nand weaknesses the firm. What resources can a firm leverage against its competitors<br \/>\nand\/or to tap new markets? What resources can a firm complement its partners? What<br \/>\nweaknesses might we see that will handicap the firm in the future? What are the key<br \/>\nstrategies the firm is pursuing? Comment on the positive and negative aspects of those<br \/>\nstrategies and provide support for your arguments. A good internal analysis will show the<br \/>\ndifference between core competencies and their implications. While sometimes difficult<br \/>\nto use, whether a resource is valuable, rare, costly to imitate, and an organization can<br \/>\norganize and exploit the resource is another good analytical tool which can help you to<br \/>\norganize your thoughts and develop a supporting argument for why a resource or<br \/>\ncapability yields a competitive advantage. Identify the economic moats and the business<br \/>\nmodel for that firm.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">3. The recommended strategy. Having analyzed the firm, you should have an idea of what<br \/>\nstrengths the firm should be leveraging, and you can look again at the external<br \/>\nenvironment to see what opportunities it should pursue. In many of the cases, the firm in<br \/>\nquestion is contemplating, or has implemented, several specific strategic actions. In this<br \/>\nsituation, the project should also include an evaluation of these specific strategic actions<br \/>\nand recommendations should be made and justified. Ideally, you would give one to three<br \/>\nalternatives. Select one of these alternatives as the preferred recommendation. While all<br \/>\nthree might be good, a firm may only be able to attack one at a time and will want to<br \/>\nknow which one you think has the biggest return. Explain why you believe this is the<br \/>\nbest option for the firm. The alternatives need to be specific action items. As an example,<br \/>\ninstead of saying \u201cform an alliance,\u201d you could recommend \u201cform an R&amp;D alliance with<br \/>\nQ to leverage this firm\u2019s superior product rollout capabilities against Q\u2019s more advanced<br \/>\ntechnology.\u201d It may take some effort, but this will show that you understand a) what<br \/>\nmakes the firm strong or weak and b) how it can take advantage of those factors. You<br \/>\ncould even recommend a firm liquidate\u2014be specific and say how management should<br \/>\nsell it off. To do a good strategic analysis of a firm, you will need to compile additional<br \/>\ndata. The university subscribes to many online journals, and much news is available from<br \/>\nlibrary sources. Use theoretical concepts and frameworks you have learned to justify your<br \/>\ndecisions.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<p style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<div style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<div style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<div style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<ol style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<li style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<p style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">double spaced, MLA style<br \/>\nbibliography, appropriately cited and proof-read.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<div style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<div style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<div style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<div style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<p style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Your individually written report will be graded based on:<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<ol style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 700; font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<p style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">**Interestingness, newness, and relevance of the topic.
