COST LEADERSHIP • It describes a way to establish the competitive advantage. • Cost leadership, in basic words, means thelowest cost of operationin the industry. • The cost leadership is often driven by company efficiency,size, scale, scope and cumulative experience (learning curve). • Acost leadership strategy aims to exploit scale of production, well defined scope and other economies Eg. producing highly standardized products, using high technology.

  8. COST FOCUS • Cost focus exploits differences in cost behaviour in segments • The firm can choose to compete in a defined, focused market segment with a narrow scope • In adopting a narrow focus, the company ideally focuses on a few target markets Krupa Rai

  9. WHAT MAKES A SEGMENT ATTRACTIVE FOR FOCUSING? Points to remember…… • Size of the segment is big enough to be profitable • Size of the segment is small enough to be of secondary interest to large rivals • Has good growth potential • Less vulnerable to substitutes • Not crucial to the success of major competitors • Buyers in the segment require specialized expertise OR customized product attributes • No other rivals are concentratingon the segment Krupa Rai

  20. BEST COST PROVIDER STRATEGY • Low cost, differentiation markets (a hybrid) • Broad markets and market niches (middle ground) • Value conscious buyers • Those who shy away from cheap, low-end products and expensive high-end products • Willing to pay a fair price for functionality and performance • More for the money Krupa Rai

  21. BEST COST PROVIDER STRATEGY • Positioning near the middle of the market • Combines other basic strategies • Medium quality at below average price, or • Somewhat higher quality at an average or slightly higher price • Adjust strategy for economic conditions, i.e. more value conscious • Match strategy to internal resources and capabilities Krupa Rai
