  14. Distinctive Competencies • Organizational strengths (SWOT) possessed by few competing firms • e.g., ability to engineer small-sized products • Exploiting can lead to competitive advantage • Condition that increases chances of achieving strategy • e.g., miniaturization of products to meet customer demands and lower shipping costs • Sometimes referred to as core competencies

  15. (Service) Strategy Capacity Capabilities • Process-based • Systems-based • Organization-based
