I/O Model Assumptions

The external environment imposes pressures and constraints that determine strategic choices.

Similarity in strategically relevant resources causes competitors to pursue similar strategies.

Resource differences among competitors are short-lived due to resource mobility across firms.

Strategic decision makers are rational and engage in profit-maximizing behaviors.

Five Forces Model of Competition

Suppliers

Substitutes

Buyers

Potential entrants

Industry rivalry

1–14

Five Forces Model Assumptions

Industry profitability (i.e., rate of return on invested capital relative to cost of capital) is a function of interactions among the five forces.

Industry attractiveness equates to its profitability potential for earning above-average returns by:

producing standardized goods or services at costs below competitor costs (a cost leadership strategy).

producing differentiated goods or services for which customers are willing to pay a price premium (a differentiation strategy).

Resources

Physical, human, and organizational capital (tangible and intangible)

Capability

An integrated set of resources

Core competence A source of competitive advantage

Building competitive advantage

Resource-Based Model Assumptions

Firms acquire different resources.

Firms develop unique capabilities based on how they combine and use resources.

Resources and certain capabilities are not highly mobile across firms.

Differences in resources and capabilities are the bases of competitive advantage and a firm’s performance rather than its industry’s structural characteristics.
