| description | This is a case study to assess the competitive priorities and the strategies of
survival of mould fabrication industry in Wilayah and Selangor under the impact
of globalisation.
Globalisation, on the other hand, is a strategy in which organisation treats the
entire world or major regions of it as domain for conducting business. As such,
the world has become a global village with borderless communities scattering all
over the globe.
MNCs under the globalisation view the globe as a huge market to capture
economies of scale, cost and culture effectiveness in product standardisation. In
addition, they rely on technology innovation to enhance their capabilities in
competitive environment.
With response to globalisation, some others view that globalisation and
liberalisation forces are being exploited by MNCs to frustrate the efforts of
developing nations.
On the whole, Malaysian SMEs in mould fabrication industry are particularly
aware of their competition in terms of quality, cost, time and flexibility in production and services offered. Smaller SMEs, somehow, dislike competition
because they are not ready and delicate in market competition. Hence, they do
not feel the impact of globalisation directly in their operations.
By looking into the comparative prices, strategies and feature of mould industry
across nations and SWOT analysis, Malaysian SMEs have got certain strategies in
the competitive environment provided actions are taken according to the
recommendations given.
To sustain competitive advantage, SMEs must learn and assimilate new sources of
manufacturing technologies and core competencies that will become the basis of
the future industry and technology initiatives. |
