Strategic Thinking- the ten big ideas • Long-range planning-considers the external factors that affect success & integrates the various functional strategies. • Strategic analysis • Industry structure • Market segmentation • The lifecycle. • SWOT analysis.
Market Segments: • Big, old & cheap • high-reliability & performance • proven sensors w/ current tech • advanced sensors w/ focus on small size • cutting-edge in both size & performance
DEMAND ANALYSIS:How Many Sensors / Segment want to buy across next 8 years: Multiply the Round 0 demand by the growth rate and add the result to the Round 0 demand. This will give you a close approximation of Round 1 demand. Copy this number into the Demand cell for Round 1. If you prefer, you can use the following shortcut. For example, assume the Traditional growth rate is 9.2%. Convert the percentage to a decimal (9.2% = 0.092) and add 1 to it (1.092). Multiply the Round 0 Traditional demand by 1.092 then round to the nearest whole number. This will give you a close approximation of Total Industry Demand for Round 1.
SENSOR INDUSTRY ONGOING GROWTH ..the entire market growing at around 14 - 15% per year.
