• GM and the entire auto industry are currently
challenged with the perfect storm. The auto
industry is being hit by a weak US and global
economy, rising fuel prices, and social and
political environmental concerns and issues. In
order to overcome these potential threat, GM
should consider mass producing a range of
alternative fueled vehicles, i.e. fuel
cell, electric, and hybrid.
17. Competitor’s Analysis

domestic companies like Damiler Chrysler &
Ford

19. SWOT Analysis
• Strengths
1. Large Market Share
• Although GM's market share in the US has dropped it is still very much competitive
at 26 percent. They also have an increasing share in the Chinese market.
2. Global Experience
3. Variety of Brand Names
• GM has been the automotive leader for the majority of the last century.
• A reason for that is the wide variety of quality brand names that appeal to all target
markets. The current GM brands include:
Chevrolet, GMC, Cadillac, Buick, Pontiac, Saturn, Hummer, Saab, Daewoo, Opel,
and Holden.
4. GMAC (General Motors Acceptance Corporation) Customer Financing Program
• Since its establishment in 1919 it has proven to be GM's most reliable source of
revenue.
5. On Star Satellite Technology
• Developed in 1996 On Star currently has over 3 million subscribers and is standard
on all GM vehicles.
• This technology allows the vehicles to be tracked in the event of an emergency or
theft.
• It also allows the driver and or passengers the ability to communicate with On Star
20. weakness
1. Behind on Alternative Energy Movement
2. Poor Organizational Structure
• GM's organizational structure seems to be
too vertically integrated .
• lack of communication between
employees from top to bottom and may
have played a part in GM falling behind on
the alternative energy movement.
3. Overly Dependent on US market
• GM has become too dependent on the US
market and must take advantage of the
opportunity to
expand globally. The competition is
becoming too strong to focus on just one
country.
4. Overly Dependent on General Motors
Acceptance Corporation(GMAC)
Financing
• GM has become too dependent on its
financing program.
Opportunities
1. Alternative Energy Movement
• Hybrid technology is still very
much new giving GM the
opportunity to once again
become the automotive
industry's leader in innovation
and technology.
2. Continuing to Expand Globally.
• Recently GM saw an increase in
the Chinese automotive market.
• If GM can infiltrate these markets
and successfully grow along with
their continuing focus on the US
market they will be headed in a
positive direction.
3. Develop New Vehicle Styles and
Models
• GM should be attempting to
develop the automotive world's
most popular vehicles.
21. Threats
1. Rising Fuel Prices
With GM being a large producer in both trucks and SUV's, sales have drastically decreased due to
the lack of fuel efficiency.
The rise in fuel prices has played a significant role in creating the opportunity for development of
both hybrid and more fuel efficient vehicles.
2. Growth of Competitors
Toyota took the first step in the direction of hybrid technology and has since drastically grown and
become the questionable automotive frontrunner to start the 21st century.
3. Pension Payouts.
Part of this threat is their own doing and is simply unavoidable. GM is responsible for providing
generous pension benefits to its employees, which at the time seemed like a great idea, however
they are now experiencing problems as more and more people begin to collect.
4. Increased Health Care Costs
GM, like many large companies with quality employee health care benefits, is experiencing a large
financial hit that only gets worse as time continues.
5. Rising Supply Costs, i.e. Steel
this threat affects the entire automotive industry and forces each company to cut manufacturing
and production costs as much as possible, without taking away from the quality of the product.
22. Porter’s Five-Forces Analysis
• The competitive structure of an industry is
another important component of identifying
factors that are a threat to diminish profitability.
• Michael Porter's five-force analysis.
(1) rivalry between existing competitors,
(2) threat of entry by new competitors,
(3) price pressure from substitute or
complementary products,
(4) bargaining power of buyers,
(5) bargaining power of suppliers
23. Five forces Analysis
Force Threat to profit
Internal rivalry Strong
Entry Weak
Substitutes and complements Weak to moderate
Buyer power Weak
Supplier power strong
24. Core Competence
• The core competence of General Motors is innovation.
• In 1911, it conceptualized engineered and
commercialized the self-starter engine for the first
time.
• In 1926, its product Cadillac was the pioneer in
devising a nationwide service strategy.
• In 1996 General Motors introduced On Star satellite
technology.
• Other new car concepts include mini cars such as
Chevy Aveo.
• However in the case of hybrid vehicles, General Motors
was unable to keep up to the pace of the market
demand
25. Financial Results
• Based on the GM’s consolidate net sales and revenue, it shown that
General Motor Corporation revenue has been falling to $ 192.6
billion in 2007 from 193.5 billion in 2004. GM incurred a
consolidated net loss in 2007 of $ 10.6 billion, compared to net
income of $ 2.8 billion in 2004.
• In the last 1990s, GM had regained market share up $ 80 a share.
• In 2000, the interest went up by the Federal Reserve to quell the
stock market and a severe stock market decline following the
September 11, 2001 attacks. Due to this factor, it affected a pension
and benefit crisis at General motors and many other American
companies.
• The current stock market price of General Motor sare falling
between $28- $29 per share. It has been falling down gradually in
the past six years General Motors North America market share in
2007 fell to 25.5% compared to 26.7 in 2004.Decreased in market
share also due to sales declines in segment where GM has high
volume such as large, sport, utilities, mid-sized, utilities, and mid-
sized cars.
