What is the FIRST stage of going global? ✔✔Market entry- companies enter new countries
using business models similar to the ones deployed in their home markets. To gain access to
local customers, however, companies often need to establish a production presence, either
because of the nature of their businesses, such as in-service industries like food, retail, or
banking, or because of local countries' regulatory restrictions, such as in the auto industry.
What is the SECOND stage of going global? ✔✔Product Specialization- companies transfer the
full production process of a particular product to a single, low-cost location and export the goods
to various consumer markets. In this scenario, different locations begin to specialize in different
products or components and trade in finished goods.
What is the THIRD stage of going global? ✔✔value chain disaggregation- represents the next
step in the company's globalization of the supply chain infrastructure. In this stage, companies
disaggregate the production process and focus on completing each activity in the most
advantageous location. Individual components of a single product might be manufactured in
several different places and assembled into final products elsewhere. Examples include the PC
industry market and the decision by companies to offshore some of their business processes and
information technology services.2
What is the FOURTH stage of going global? ✔✔Value chain reengineeringcompanies seek to further increase their cost savings by reengineering their processes to suit
local market conditions by substituting lower cost labor for capital. General Electric's (GE)
medical equipment division, for example, has tailored its manufacturing processes abroad to take
advantage of low labor costs. Not only does it use more labor-intensive production processes, but
it also designs and builds the capital equipment for its local plants
What is the FIFTH stage of going global? ✔✔creation of new markets- the focus is on market
expansion. This allows companies to substantially lower their sticker prices in both old and new
markets and to expand demand. Significantly, the value of new revenues generated in this last
stage is often greater than the value of cost savings in the other stages.
