Industry analysis using Porters Five force Model
Porter’s Five Force Model is invaluable in analyzing the competitive strengths of an industry. Below is the diagrammatic representation of the model for better understanding.
Figure1: Porter’s Five Force Model
Source: (Porter, 2011)
Based on the above-represented dimensions of the model, the competitive strengths of the following industries are evaluated.
Finance Industry
Threat of new entry
The licensing formalities in this industry are quite high and thus the threat of new entrants is quite low (Duygun-Fethi & Pasiouras, 2009).
Threat of substitutes
Considerable high threat of substitute as mutual funds and government securities is increasing (Duygun-Fethi & Pasiouras, 2009).
Bargaining power of suppliers

The following analysis of Porter’s 5 Forces Model will help in determining the threats that my be present now or in the future and help determine opportunities and decisions regarding the marketing plan.
Thesis: All throughout the history of America, industrialization was always a big impact. Soon after the war in 1812, America's nationalism increased. This contributed to the industrialization of the United States very quickly. This time period shows a huge change from agriculture to the new industrialization. Not only did the shift impact the economy and technology it also largely affected politics in the United States. With the expansion of the market during the 18th-century the most significant effects of the market revolution were the developing sectional tensions in the US, the expansion of the market with new and improved transportation technology (making it easier and faster to transport goods), and the substantial changes in labor and production of resources.
Many people had different perspectives on the idea of the working women during the Industrial Revolution. A portion of people had concerns for women’s equality in the workplace, some didn’t trust the women because they considered them as dishonest and finally, men started to prefer a wife that works outside the home.
Through the years technology and life in general has improved. The industrial Revolution allowed growth of the economy. This time period provided some positive things and some negative things. The struggles of one person was the advantage of another. Society improved, but people had to suffer its consequences. Labeling this revolution as negative or positive is difficult because there were many advantages. Yet it also had many disadvantages. People's health was impacted by industrialization, labor work was harsh, but because of the Industrial Revolution many people were finally able to get a job. Throughout the Industrial Revolution, there were some really bad things that came out of it, but there were some really good things. Saying this revolution
The Industrial Revolution all started because of the agricultural revolution. Well, here’s the problem: small land owners aka farmers still wanted their land, but they got kicked out to the city. These cities weren’t the best because people lived in crowded small homes. “Rich people” wanted to rule the world by opening factories and making the lower class people to work in it. These people worked more than twelve hours a day. This wasn’t fair because they were separated from their families. Their lives were just work. Also, they didn’t get a lot of sleep. While some argue that Industrialization had primarily positive consequences for society because it made the economy grow, it was actually a negative thing for society. Industrialization’s
After weighing the pros and cons of the industrial revolution to the society and individual rights, it has been concluded that the benefits of the industrial society outweighed the social and political rights of the individual. As a successful businessman with pride, who contributed to the society, I strongly say that the industrial revolution was beneficial to the society since it boosted countries’ economy and produced technologies that would eventually pave a way to modern world. The Industrial Revolution boosted the production of goods around Europe and affected the economy in a positive way. An article regarding the production of resources during the industrial revolution stated that “later, the young British industries had a monopoly
Porter's Five Forces is a simple but powerful tool that consist of 5 different forces to understand the competitiveness of your business environment, and for identifying your strategy's potential profitability. The five forces are degree of rivalry, threat of entry, threat of substitutions, buyer power, and supplier power. Each force is helpful in their own way to get to know your rivals a lot better and get to know what can happen in your market.
The analysis of the Porters five forces are very important to business entities. Based on the analysis a business can evaluate their current position and positions that they plan to progress towards as it relates to the industry they are operating in.
Competitive analysis main objective is to research, analyze, and compare the competition in relation to the company. Analytical tools used for competitive analysis include the five forces framework, value net, driving forces, strategic groups, competitor analysis, and key success factors are analytical tools. The competitive analysis will enable the trucking company to understand more about the industry and the competition, to be able to develop a competitive strategy that will give the company a competitive advantage by taking into account the actions and responses of the competitions (Thompson, Peteraf, Gamble & Strickland, 2016).
Porter’s Five Forces is a framework that consists of five competitive forces, threat of entry, power of supplier and buyer, threat of substitution and competitive rivalry. These forces facilitate the analysis of the task environment of an industry or company (Wheelen and Hunger, 2009).

The transportation system is well structured and railways are connected with a network of ports and delivery points all over Europe. Besides having excellent transport the country is in the forefront in telecommunications infrastructure. Germany not for nothing took first place for infrastructure in the World Economic Forum‘s (WEF) Global Competitiveness Report 2008.
In his article “The five competitive forces that shape strategy“, Michael Porter (2008) updates and extends his “five forces” framework he first introduced in 1979 and which has influenced the academic and business research for decades. He reaffirms that “THREAT OF ENTRY”, “THE POWER OF SUPPLIERS”, “THE POWER OF BUYERS”, THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES”, and “RIVALRY AMONG EXISTING COMPETITORS” are the forces that shape every single industry, and a thorough understanding of such forces help analyze everything from the intensity of competition to the profitability and attractiveness of any industry. The framework has two dimensions; the vertical dimension that connects
Porter’s five forces analysis not only provides the ideas to create the strategic plan but also assesses the attractiveness of an industry.
