    PESTLE ANALYSIS

    Political environment

    Pakistan is facing the situation of great political instability and uncertainty since

    last couple of year. according to the economist com survey Pakistan is at the 11th

    number of top most vulnerable countries of the world. due to this problem business

    activates in Pakistan are severely affected. The foreign direct investment also

    decreased dramatically due to current insecurity.

    The government decided to increase the minimum wage rate of workers from

    4500Rs to 6000Rs which is increases the cost of production and inflation

    There are few incentive to the manufacture of Pakistan by the government as

    compare to up coming giants of china. the cost of manufacturing is high due to

    electricity rate and overhead. So most of the time manufacture hesitate to do

    manufacturing in Pakistan and prefer to import finished goods are only assemble

    good in Pakistan

    Economic environment

    Due to global environment economic crises, Pakistan is also facing a lot of

    problem. Although Pakistan economy is not directly hit by the crises yet the

    economic situation in server in Pakistan

    To resolve the power sector issue, removing subsidies and concurrent transfer of

    international oil price changes also likely to risk a further slow down in economic

    activities at least in the near future.

    In Pakistan there is a strong black economy due to the circulation of black money

    illegal business like smuggling

    Economist are expected better condition for Pakistan economy due to the loan ofIMF.

    The consumer in Pakistan is spending most of their income of food and basic needs

    of life.

  • 8/3/2019 Strategic Management Pel

    10/39

    Social Environment

    Now a days people are becoming more price conscious due to inflation and crises

    of Pakistan. Their primary focus on food and daily use good and thus people have

    lessened their interest in electronic good.

    Now consumer prefers the split air conditioner over window air conditioner

    because split ACs are considered as energy severs. That is why window ACs are

    almost obsolete because of high consumption and split ACs are becoming more

    popular because of low electricity.

    In countries like Pakistan the usage of air conditioner is great because of extended

    summer season of nearly 8 month. In Pakistan air conditioner are used for middleand upper class.

    The company are becoming more socially responsible these days as they have

    introduce CFC free refrigerant, anti bacterial and dust filter.

    These people in Pakistan have started considering spilt air conditioner as a status

    symbol and feel disgraced if split unit is installed in every room in their house.

    That is why people purchase home appliances on installment from the dealers.

    Technological environment

    With the introduction of spilt air conditioner, it made the air conditioner more

    affordable and easy to install and maintain.

    The efficiency of air conditioner depends upon its outer unit. The bigger is the

    outer unit the more efficient will its inner unit. so companies are more big unit to

    get more efficient.

    In split air conditioner the rotator compressor are used which are soundless and donot heat up in extreme situation.

    Companies are introducing refrigerator with cool bank which remain working for 5

    hours even after switch off.

  • 8/3/2019 Strategic Management Pel

    11/39

    The multinational national companies are using information technology to

    coordinate and communicate with in companies as well as extreme parties. The

    electronic management system are used to reduce the cost of handling the

    inventory order.

    Legal

    Legal factors include description law employment law, and earth and safety.

    These factors can affect how a company operates, its costs, and the demand for its

    products

    Environmental analysis

    Environmental factors include ecological and environmental aspects such as

    weather, climate, , which may especially affect industries such as tourism,

    farming, and insurance. Furthermore, growing awareness of the potential

    impacts of climate change is affecting how companies operate and the products

    they offer, both creating new markets and diminishing or destroying existingones.

    The indirect competitors for PEL in this industry are Samsung, Orient,

    Mitsubishi, Sabro, Nobel and others Chinese brands available in the market.

    The PEL has no big threat from all these companies. But the Sabro pioneer for

    introducing the split air conditioner in Pakistan. Now days the sabro has lost

    its market share to other companies for the business of Split AC.

    SWOT Analysis of PEL

    The rapid changes in governments will become threats for the companies because

    every government adopts its own policies for the industries. So it increases the

    uncertainty for the investors who want to invest heavy amount in their new

    projects. Thats become the major threat for the companies and decreases the

    profitability. Due to fear of politically instability companies will also SWOT

    20/39

    Strengths

    PEL has the following strengths and is in more competitive position in these areas

    than its competitors. Following are the main strong points of PEL:

    Strong brand image Strong dealer network Good product quality and service Number 2 in refrigerators in Pakistan Firm grip in home appliances Strong Management Distribution of Authority Free customer service

    Strong Brand Image

    PEL has created the strong brand image in the mind of the customers through

    higher quality and low price. The customers of the PEL always prefer to buy the

    PEL home appliances like WRAC split AC and refrigerators whenever they

    wanted to buy.

    Strong Dealer Network

    It is also the plus point for the PEL that it has also developed the strong dealernetwork in the market. The dealers are always trying to sell the PEL appliance to

    the customers because they know there are high margin in the PEL products.

  • 8/3/2019 Strategic Management Pel

    21/39

    Strong Quality, Sale and Service

    PEL is also in a strong position that it provides the superior quality to your

    better in quality than the other companies products. PEL also provides the after

    sale service to their customers which delight the customers satisfaction.

    Number 2 in Refrigerators In Pakistan

    After the Dawlance refrigerators PEL has a second position in refrigerators market.

    PEL always continuously strives to pursue the strategies adopted by the

    competitors.

    Firm Grip in Home Appliance

    So PEL is one of the companies, which is having a strong grip in the home

    appliance i.e. WRAC, Refrigerators, micro wave Oven etc that is a strong point for

    the company.

    Strong Management

    It is another plus point that PEL has a strong management. Its employees are more

    competent and fully skill and knowledge. They always co-operate the top

    management in achieving the goals that are assigned to them.

  • 8/3/2019 Strategic Management Pel

    22/39

    Distribution of Authority

    Top management of PEL delegates the power to the subordinates for achieving the

    marketing objectives in a specified time period. So every manager has an authority

    that use in achieving the Goals.

    Free Customer Service

    PEL provides free customer service for one year to its customers. So the customers

    always buy the PEL products due to its free service and it becomes loyal customer

    for the PEL. PEL always provides help to their customers for repairing the WRAC,

    Refrigerators and other items. PEL always make efforts to satisfy the customers.

    Although PEL is owned by the SAIGOL GROUP but its shares can be purchased

    and sold in stock exchange market. So every one who is interested in purchasing

    the shares of PEL he can purchase. It is also called public limited company.

    Weaknesses

    Like other companies PEL has some weaknesses in operating the business. If PEL

    overcome on these weaknesses then it can become a market leader in the home

    appliance. PEL loose some competitive edge in the following points:

    Financial Problems Lack of advertisement System variations

  • 8/3/2019 Strategic Management Pel

    23/39

    Lack of Product range Less Utilization of capacity

    Financial Problems

    Sometimes PEL faces the financial problems because its stocks are so much piled

    up in the stores that create the problem of cash flow because when the stocks are

    not sold and the production is in process for 24 hours a day than the company faces

    such problems.

    Lack of Advertisement

    It is a second major weakness of PEL that it never makes advertising on TV. That

    creates hurdle in selling the products and customers cannot know the changes,

    which are made in products by the company time to time.

    System Variations

    It is also the main weakness of PEL that there are rapidly a change in polices of

    selling the products. Thats creates problems for the selling team how to sell the

    products to the dealers because the top management requires the urgent amount of

    money.

  • 8/3/2019 Strategic Management Pel

    24/39

    Lack of Product Range

    PEL has introduced more products of consumer items but there are more needs to

    develop new consumer items like PEL washing Machines, Vacuum cleaner and

    other items.

    Less Utilization of Capacity

    Due to lack of finance a company cannot utilize all its resources on its full

    capacity. It increases the cost of products per unit that decreases the profit margin

    of each consumer item

    Opportunities

    For the PEL there are more opportunities for expansion the business. If PEL realize

    that opportunities then it will be more fruitful and profitable for the company. Even

    if company does not take advantage of these opportunities then it will loose its

    competitive position and high profit. Its `competitors will give PEL tough time to

    pursuing the opportunities that are adopted by them. Following are the

    opportunities for the PEL.

    Exploration of market in Pakistan Increase in product range Export opportunity

  • 8/3/2019 Strategic Management Pel

    25/39

    Exploration of Market in Pakistan

    PEL has the opportunity to explore the market in all over the Pakistan. Even

    though PEL introduce its products in all cities of Pakistan but there are so many

    places that have the capacity to absorb the PELs products. These places are tribal

    areas in NWFP and northern areas of Punjab and NWFP, central area of SIND. If

    company introduces their products in these areas then it can get a large amount of

    profit and increase its market shares.

    Increase in Product Range

    It is the main opportunity for the PEL that it can increase its product range that will

    be a more profitable for the company. There are more needs to develop new

    consumer items like PEL washing Machines, Vacuum cleaner and other items. Due

    to lack of product Range, Company cannot earn more profit because consumers

    have high demand of these products. If PEL does not take this opportunity then it

    will loose high margin of profit and market share. It will reduce the fixed cost and

    increase the efficiency of the employees.

    Export Opportunity

    PEL Company has also the opportunity to export their products in other

    international countries like UAE, SAUDI ARABIA, and other Arabic and African

    countries. It will not only reduce the dependence on one market but also increase

    the market shares and profits. It will also help the company to spread the fixed cost

    on all of its production that will reduce the total cost and company will enjoy the

    high profit.

  • 8/3/2019 Strategic Management Pel

    26/39

    Threats

    PEL Company in such a competitive era has many threats as well. These threats

    are for the present situations and future. Company should make its policies and

    strategies according to these threats. So following are the main threats for the PEL:

    PEL facing tough competition. Mostly companies Give High Credit in market and get current market High Credit market is big fever for the company Slow growth rate in Pakistan Instability of government Tax department

    PEL Facing Tough Competition

    There is very strong competition for the home appliance in the market. So every

    company tries to come in the number 1 position for achieving the maximum shares

    in the market. Every company adopts different strategies for selling of the

    products.

    Mostly Companies Give High Credit in Market and Get Current

    Market

    As there is stiff competition in the home appliance market, it will cause the price

    war. So every company reduces the prices of its products to increase the sales.

  • 8/3/2019 Strategic Management Pel

    27/39

    Slow Growth Rate in Pakistan

    There is also slow growth rate of home appliance in Pakistan that will increase the

    stocks of the company. It becomes the burden for the company that how to sell

    these stocks. Its main reason is that purchasing power of the buyer is very low and

    it has no income to buy the expensive the home appliance. It is also becoming a

    main threat for all the companies.

    Instability of Government (political conditions)

    Due to the unstable government people low invest in the industry.

    Tax Department

    Tax department is another major threat for the companies that will restrain the

    business expansion. There is more complicated tax procedure for the companies,

    which are interested to increase the investment in their businesses.

    Corporate governance

    corporate governance is the set of processes, customs, policies, laws, and

    institutions affecting the way a corporation (or company) is directed, administered

    or controlled. Corporate governance also includes the relationships among themany stakeholders involved and the goals for which the corporation is governed.

    The principal stakeholders are the shareholders, the board of directors, employees,customers, creditors, suppliers, and the community at large.

    Corporate governance is a multi-faceted subject.[1]

    organization through mechanisms that try to reduce or eliminate the principal-

    agent problem. A related but separate thread of discussions focuses on the impact

    of a corporate governance system in economic efficiency, with a strong emphasis

    on shareholders' welfare. There are yet other aspects to the corporate governance

    subject, such as the stakeholder view and the corporate governance models aroundthe world (see section 9 below).

    There has been renewed interest in the corporate governance practices of modern

    corporations since 2001, particularly due to the high-profile collapses of a number

    of large U.S. firms such as Enron Corporation and MCI Inc. (formerly

    WorldCom). In 2002, the U.S. federal government passed the Sarbanes-Oxley Act,intending to restore public confide

    We talk a good talk when it comes to corporate governance. We research and draw

    conclusions on the principles of governance, but how do we, as internal auditors,relate to those principles? And what is our role in governance especially in

    regard to the unprecedented financial crisis that not only has crippled the U.S.

    economy, but has the potential of devastating the global economy?

    Before we can analyze these questions, we must first step back and define what

    corporate governance. The Insitute of Internal Auditors (IIA) defines governance

    as the combination of processes and structures implemented by the board in orderto inform, direct, manage, and monitor the activities of the organization toward the

    achievement of its objectives. Corporate governance then implies relationships

    among an organizations management, the board, the stakeholders, and other

    bodies that have indirect involvement with the company. It also provides a

    generalized structure from which the organizations objectives emerge. The

    publication, Internal Auditing: Assurance & Consulting, identifies the key

    components of governance oversight as the board of directors, stakeholders, risk

    management (senior management and risk owners) and assurance (internal and

    external auditors). Regulatory agencies also serve as an indirect/influencing

    stakeholder. Effective corporate governance program depends upon a clear

    understanding of the respective roles of each of these components and their

    relationships with others in the corporate structure.

    BCG MATRIX (BOSTAN CONSULTING MATRIX)

    BCG stands for Boston consulting group. It is a portfolio planning method

    that evaluates the companys strategic business unit .Using this model an

    organization classifies each of its separate business units (SBU) according to two

    factors:

    Market share relative to competition and growth rate of the industry in

    which SBU operates

    When these factors are divided into high and low categories, a 2 x 2 grid is

    created as displayed in following figure:
