ASEAN

Commercial Vehicles

• The Assessment was carried out along 2 distinct tracks – the “Pull for Production” & the “Push for Export”.
• “Pull for Production” involved assessing market environment, supply chain and costs of production.
• “Push for Export” dealt with export incentives and the impact of various Free Trade Agreements on
manufacturing in ASEAN.

26. Case Study: Automotive &
Transportation
THE CHALLENGE PROJECT OBJECTIVE
• Despite steady sales and profitability, the client’s
market share was going down and the performance
of dealers was unsatisfactory
• The client wanted to know whether their existing
sales were in line with the potential that the markets
had to offer and what additional volume, if any,
could be gained by lowering existing prices
• To determine market potential for the brand in the
target markets
• To determine price sensitivity of the brand’s current
offerings
OUR APPROACH AND WORK
• To understand the price sensitivity, Frost & Sullivan focused on the intenders of premium luxury bikes.
• Market mapping was done to understand the price-volume characteristics of the premium bike segment
• Intenders were asked to state their intention for purchase at various price points.
• Data from the price sensitivity analysis and market mapping were used to arrive at the price volume curves for
lower price ranges and determine additional volume potential
OUTCOME AND BUSINESS IMPACT
• The additional volume so estimated formed a key input for the client’s annual sales & marketing plan
• The Price Sensitivity Analysis helped the client readjust its price positioning without compromising on its
premium-luxury status.
• The potential sales-existing sales mismatch helped the client better evaluate channel performance
