PORTER FIVE FORCES ANALYSIS
SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY
Competitive Rivalry
• Competitive rivalry is low; however, there is indirect competition between
contract scientific research centres due to development needs of their
clients that operate in the same market & are in direct competition with
each other
• Many foreign companies tend to set up their in-house research centres
that may operate in competition with contract R&D centres
Threat of New Entrants Substitute Products
Bargaining Power of Suppliers Bargaining Power of Customers
• The threat of new entrants is
low because of the capital
intensive nature of the business
• Contract or academic research
centres do not have any direct
influence on the market, and
have little bargaining power for
the commercialisation of
technologies developed
• There is no direct influence of
consumers on scientific
research; however,
technologies are developed
keeping consumer needs in
mind
• With easy access to talent base
and low operational costs,
companies may look to set up
in-house scientific research
centres
