Amazon began in 1994 as an online bookstore founded by Jeff Bezos with a vision of building a digital "superstore" with an exhaustive selection that customers would value. Since then, Amazon has expanded into many other product categories and grown tremendously, becoming the world's largest online retailer. It derives its strengths from its cost leadership strategy, brand recognition, and superior logistics network. However, it also faces weaknesses like losing focus as it diversifies and operates on thin margins. Opportunities for growth include expanding payment services, private labels, product selection, and global footprint, though threats include data privacy concerns, legal challenges, and local competitors.

it is being utilized efficiently. In the e-commerce industry value is added through several
factors I will explain in detail.
Inbound Logistics: During this stage companies in this Industry add value to there
firm or product by defining its inbound logistics strategy. In addition it also keeps

wholesalers/private sellers to their distribution centers. When this stage is utilized
efficiently it ends up better serving the company and adding value to the end
customer.

value to the firm. The daily operations should be organized so that orders leave to
end customers from the appropriate geographical location of warehouse, to save on

logistics should be well managed, as customers are sensitive to delivery dates. In
this kind of industry companies are in-charge of shipping to final customers, and

company markets its products and services mainly focusing on price, promotion,
product and place. The sales part consists of growth rate of the industry in this case

In an industry where being a cost leader is a goal firms try to spend less on
marketing expenses, and use free advertisement such as email, marketing
campaigns, and creative own ways of marketing their product or service.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

20. STRENGTHS
S
- Being the world’s leading online retailer, Amazon derives its strengths primarily from a three-pronged
strategic thrust on cost leadership, differentiation, and focus. This strategy has resulted in the
company reaping the gains from this course of action and has helped its shareholders derive value
from the company.
- Amazon primarily derives its competitive advantage from leveraging IT (Information Technology) and
its use of e-Commerce as a scalable and an easy to ramp up platform that ensures that the company
is well ahead of its competitors.
- One of the key strengths of Amazon is that it enjoys top of the mind recall from consumers globally
and this recognition has helped it enter new markets, which were hitherto out of bounds for many e-
Commerce companies.
- Using superior logistics and distribution systems, the company has been able to actualize better
customer fulfillment and this has resulted in Amazon deriving competitive advantage over its rivals.
21. WEAKNESSES
W
• In recent years, Amazon as part of its diversification strategy has been “spreading itself too thin”
meaning that it has allowed its focus to waver from its core competence of retailing books online and
allowed itself to venture into newer focus areas. While this might be a good strategy from the risk
diversification perspective, Amazon has to be cognizant of losing its strategic advantage as it moves
away from its core competence.
• As Amazon offers free shipping to its customers, it is in the danger of losing its margins and hence,
might not be able to optimize on costs because of this strategy.
• Considering the fact that Amazon is an online only retailer, the single-minded focus on online retailing
might “come in the way” of its expansion plans particularly in emerging markets.
• One of the biggest weaknesses and something that has been oft commented upon by analysts and
industry experts is that Amazon operates in near zero margin business models that have severely
dented its profitability and even though the company has high volumes and huge revenues, this has not
translated into meaningful profits for the company.
22. OPPORTUNITIES
O
- By rolling out its online payment system, Amazon has the opportunity to scale up considerably considering
the fact that concerns over online shopping as far as security and privacy are concerned are among the
topmost issues on the minds of consumers. Further, this would improve the company’s margins as it lets it
reap the advantages of using its own payment gateway.
- Another opportunity, which Amazon can capitalize on, relates to it rolling out more products under its own
brand instead of being a forwarding site for third party products. In other words, it can increase the
number of products under its own brand instead of merely selling and stocking products made by its
partners.
- Amazon can increase the portfolio of its offerings wherein it stocks more products than the norm currently
which places it in a position of strength and comfort as this can translate into higher revenues.
- The fourth opportunity, which Amazon has, is in terms of expanding its global footprint and open more
sites in the emerging markets, which would certainly give it an edge in the uber-competitive online retailing
market.
23. THREATS
22%
T
- One of the biggest threats to Amazon’s success is the increasing concern over online shopping because of
identity theft and hacking which leaves its consumer data exposed. Therefore, Amazon has to move quickly to
allay consumer concerns over its site and ensure that online privacy and security are guaranteed.
- Because of its aggressive pricing strategies, the company has had to face lawsuits from publishers and rivals in
the retailing industry. The obsessive focus on cost leadership that Amazon follows has become a source of
trouble for the company because of the competitors being upset with Amazon taking away the business from
them.
- Finally, Amazon faces significant competition from local online retailers who are more agile and nimble when
compared to its behemoth type of strategy. This means that the company cannot lose sight of its local market
conditions in the pursuit of its global strategy.
