Vertical/HORIZONTAL Integration of FORD
Ford through its ONE Ford Plan has tried to implement itsgrowth and renewal strategies
In order to reduce the inventory costs, Ford motor companyintegrated both forward and backward to become its own
supplier as well as distributor
Horizontal integration by means of collaborating with companiesin the same business such as Aston Martin, Jaguar and the like
-
Vertical Integration of TOYOTA
Toyota on the other hand is also vertically integrated in both thedirections but without full ownership
Toyota rigorously screens its suppliers for quality and financialhealth, and then spends time and money to ensure their efficiency
and survival by taking minority stakes
It is to create a supply chain with the stability and efficiency ofvertical integration but with some of the flexibility of looser networks
of suppliers
This approach is also cheaper than the traditional vertical method ofowning suppliers outright, a virtue at a time when cash and credit are
rare

Strategic Challenges - Ford
Recessionary conditions in Europe
Europe is a big part of Ford's business, and lately it has been losing a ton
of money
Recessions in Europe have clobbered new-car sales: They're now at lows
not seen in 20 years, and they may fall further before things start to
improve
Product / Technology Challenges
Quality issues related to Ford's complicated in-vehicle technologies -
newer technologies associated with Sync and MyFordTouch
Ford has also experienced bugs with its touch screen technology and
glitches in MyFordTouch
-
Strategic Challenges - Ford
Leadership Challenge
Alan Mullaly is likely to quit by end of 2013 or beginning
of 2014
So, sustaining the transformations and leadership
activities done by Mullaly in terms of the culture or
strategies such as One Ford strategy will be the biggest challenge faced by Ford

Strategic Recommendations for Ford
Green Vehicles
Due to increased emphasis on the manufacturing of eco-friendly cars, it has become important for every car maker to make more fuel efficient cars and emit less smoke
Hondas Civic GX is a green car and won the title of greenest car of 2011 from American Council
Ford has taken initiative with the production of Fiesta SFE but it should produce more eco-friendly cars in alignment with the Fords sustainability strategy
Pricing
Small world cars intended to be sold in developing markets which are price sensitive
Produce cars which are not only better in terms of features, performance, fuel efficiency but also in terms of low pricing
-
Strategic Recommendations for Ford
Innovation
Main competitors are Toyota, Honda offering products
that are low priced, nice features
Ford should invest more in R & D and focus on
removing the glitches from the existing software
It should focus on improving the design of the vehicles
-
Strategic Challenges - Toyota
Geographic Challenges
North America accounts for about a fourth of Toyotas sales but because of the weakening of the macroeconomic environment caused by fiscal
cliff, global sales may drop. Also, competitors like Ford and Honda
coming up with new hybrid and refreshed models
Sales in Japan accounts for 30% of the total sales volume
But due to natural calamities like earthquake, tsunami in 2011, the
government provided tax incentives to buy cars. So, buyers rushed to
purchase new vehicles before the subsidies ended in September. With
its expiry, the market is expected to fall by 20%
In China, due to anti-Japanese backlash, Japanese automakers have
suffered
-
Strategic Challenges - Toyota
Toyotas value proposition has been built upon quality and reliability. Its culture, defined by the Toyota Production System,
completely supports that value proposition.
It has set the standard for quality and reliability in its industry and
rose to the top on these core competencies.
Operational effectiveness of Toyota has been matched by its
competitors in terms of quality and reliability
Now it must develop new competencies in design, innovation, and
customer engagement to remain the industry leader.
-
Strategic Challenges - Toyota
Regulatory Challenges (Government)
There are stricter government regulations on safety, emissions and
fuel consumption, and rising customer demand for vehicles with
green and luxury features
So, cars are becoming increasingly sophisticated both in terms of how
they are designed and how they are manufactured
This has led to growing technical complexity of todays vehicles
-
Strategic Recommendations - Toyota
Eco-friendly cars
One of the most powerful and reliable products that Toyota has is the
Hybrid cars, which helped the company to recover from it crisis.
So Toyota should meet the demand on the environmental cars by finding
new and creative environment friendly cars such as the electric car.
Geographic recommendations
Toyota went to its first loss in its operating income in its life due to the
mortgage crisis in the United State.
The company was obviously affected very badly by a crisis that happened
in one country.
Toyota shouldnt focus in one market and neglect other important and rapidly growing markets such as China, India
-
Strategic Recommendations - Toyota
Organization Structure
Decentralized structure is a good structure for Toyota. It can bring more
coordination within the organization, having more effective
communication among head managers, division managers and employees
Resolving cultural mismatch
There are issues due to the culture mismatch between companies in
America and Japan
Toyota Japan, a high-context company, needs to have training for
American executives, so they can be aware of difference between two
cultures and understand Japan's collective culture
