Three key success factors
Technology - Improving the driving experience: doing things such as equipping cars with televisions, terrain response technology for smoother driving, and voice recognition to control many functions, including navigation, phone, entertainment, climate control, the retractable roof, and personalization preferences.
Three key success factors cont
Safety - Protecting you and your family: Rollover protection and innovative restraint systems keep you safer in the event of an accident. Design - Ford believes that cars should not only be safe and technologically sound, but also nice to look at, for this reason Ford is constantly make new and innovative car models such as the new Focus ST, and Land Rovers new Range Stormer.
weakness
Outsourcing - Because of outsourcing while Ford is increasing productivity and cutting cost, they are also firing a lot of their employees some of which have been there for years. So because of this Fords employee loyalty is decreasing. Quality - Though they have safe and innovative designs Ford has a reputation of making cars with poor quality. Since Ford makes their cars with the intentions of cutting costs they don’t of ten use the most expensive parts, as a result their vehicles do not last as long as their competitors overseas. Customer loyalty - Because of the expendable manner in which Ford treats their employees, customers often label Ford as an “unappreciative” company, which lessons the Brand loyalty of the company.
Technology
Vehicles- Ford Motors have been pushing technology to it’s limits since the model T. Currently they are looking for fuel reducing engines and alternative fuel sources. Hydrogen engines are currently being researched. Production- the cars and trucks made on the assembly line in Ford’s factories are aided by advanced computers pushing robotics to their full potential.
Outsourcing
Cheaper labor continues to move car manufacturing jobs outside the U.S. Recently Mazda signed a deal with IBM Japan to undertake the development and maintenance of Mazda’s information system. Deal could be worth 50 billion yen in ten years.
Threats!!!!
The threat are really the same across the board for the automobile industry. Competition is huge, in this industry, and nothing hurts a company more than internal strife, as is the case with Ford Motor Company. Also an impending recession does not smile upon any industry in this day and age.
Conclusion
Ford Motor Company is a very successful company even though they are going through some hard times right now. They have a very good business structure and they have maintained that through out the years.
