  • Value Chain Analysis (4‐6 pages): For the value chain analysis, you may refer to Figure 4.1 on page 78 of the textbook. A complete value chain analysis includes examination of the company and at least ONE of the competitors or industry average statistics so that you can assess the company’s cost competitiveness in relation to its rivals. Be sure to identify major primary and

support activities undertaken to deliver value to the customer, and value chain activities that firm does more or less well (or more or less efficiently/cost effectively) than competitors. Your analysis should help you understand the internal cost structures of the firm (vs. competitors), and the resources and capabilities of the firm. Please also refer to Table 4.1 on pages 71 of your textbook (4th Ed.).
