two aspects of the co*petitive environ*ent

able to *any to produce at the lowest cost4 &actories are built and
*aintainedL labor is recruited and trained to deliver the lowest possible
costs of production4 cost advanta3e is the focus4 Costs are shaved off

low cost does not always lead to low price4 (roducers could price at
co*petitive parity0 eBploitin3 the benefits of a bi33er *ar3in than
co*petitors4 $o*e or3aniDation0 such as !oyota0 are very 3ood not only at

2 DIFFERENTIATION
-ifferentiated 3oods and services satisfy the needs of custo*ers throu3h a
sustainable co*petitive advanta3e4 !his allows co*panies to desensitiDe
prices and focus on value that 3enerates a co*paratively hi3her price and a
better *ar3in4 !he benefits of differentiation reuire producers to se3*ent
*arkets in order to tar3et 3oods and services at specific se3*ents0
3eneratin3 a hi3her than avera3e price4 &or eBa*ple0 !oyota differentiates
its product and service4 !he differentiatin3 or3aniDation will incur
additional costs in creatin3 their co*petitive advanta3e4 !hese costs *ust
be offset by the increase in revenue 3enerated by sales4 Costs *ust be
recovered4 !here is also the chance that any differentiation could be copied
by co*petitors4 !herefore there is always an incentive to innovated and
continuously i*prove4
4 FOCUSORNICHESTRATEGY
!he focus strate3y is also known as a niche strate3y4 here an
or3aniDation can afford neither a wide scope cost leadership nor a wide
scope differentiation strate3y0 a niche strate3y could be *ore suitable4
