About Alcatel-Lucent
Alcatel Lucent offers fixed, mobile and converged broadband networking, IP technologies, applications and services. The companys product offerings enable service providers, enterprises and governments worldwide, to deliver voice, data and video communication services to end-users. It has three customer-facing regional organizations, the Americas, the Asia Pacific, and EMEA (Europe, the Middle, and Africa).
Segments
As of December 31, 2009, the company operated in the following segments: CARRIER; Applications; Enterprise; and Services.
CARRIER SEGMENT
The Carrier segment supplies a portfolio of products and solutions used by fixed, wireless and converged service providers to address these needs, as well as enterprises and governments for their business critical communications.
Internet Protocol
The companys portfolio of third generation IP routers and switches is designed to support IP-based applications and services while helping service providers monetize their network investment and reduce customer churn. The companys IP portfolio consists of three product families that deliver multiple services including residential broadband triple play; Ethernet and IP Virtual Private Network (VPN) business services; and wireless 2G, 3G and LTE services. The main product families are:
Internet Protocol/Multiprotocol Label Switching (or IP/MPLS) service routers: These products direct traffic within and between carriers national and international networks to enable delivery of a broad range of IP-based services (including Internet access, Internet Protocol TV (IPTV), Voice over IP, mobile phone and data, and managed business VPNs) on a single common network infrastructure.
Carrier Ethernet service switches: These switches enable carriers to deliver residential, business and wireless services. These products are mainly used in metropolitan area networks.
Multi-service wide-area-network (or MS WAN) switches: These switches enable fixed line and wireless carriers to transition their existing networks to support newer technologies and services.
The companys Converged Backbone Transformation Solution increases the communication and collaboration between the traditionally independent IP and optical layers of the network by integrating IP and optical network elements, as well as network management and control layers.
The IP/MPLS and Carrier Ethernet products are designed to facilitate the development and availability of applications for the more participatory and interactive Web 2.0 business and consumer services.
The companys service routers and Carrier Ethernet service switches share a single network management system that provides consistency of features, quality of service, and operations, administration and maintenance capabilities from the network core to the customer edge. Its service routers are particularly suited to deliver complex services to business, residential and mobile end-users. Its IP/MPLS service routers and Carrier Ethernet service switches are often used in conjunction with its DSL and GPON (Gigabit Passive Optical Network) access products to deliver these newer triple-play services, or with its wireless access products to deliver LTE solutions, or with its DWDM (Dense Wave Division Multiplexing) and optical switching products to deliver converged backbone transformation solutions for optimizing IP transport. In July 2009, the company acquired Velocix, a UK-based company specializing in the construction and optimization of content delivery networks.
Optics
The Optics division designs and markets equipment for the long distance transportation of data over fiber optic connections via land (terrestrial) and under sea (submarine), as well as for short distances in metropolitan and regional areas. The companys transport portfolio also includes its microwave wireless transmission equipment.
Terrestrial
The companys terrestrial optical products offer a portfolio designed to support service growth from the metro to the network core. With its products, carriers manage voice, data and video traffic patterns based on different applications or platforms and can introduce vari

SWOT Analysis
SWOT, which stands for Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats, is an analytical framework that identifies the internal and external factors that are favorable and unfavorable for a company.
Enhanced SWOT Analysis
Enhanced SWOT is a 3×3 grid that arranges strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats into one scheme:
- How to use the strengths to take advantage of the opportunities?
- How to use the strengths to reduce likelihood and impact of the threats?
- How to overcome the weaknesses that obstruct taking advantage of the opportunities?
- How to overcome the weaknesses that can make the threats a reality?
Upon answering these questions a company can develop a project plan to improve its business performance.
PESTEL Analysis
PESTEL (also termed as PESTLE) is an ideal tool to strategically analyze what influence different outside factors – political, economic, sociocultural, technological, environmental and legal – exert on a business to later chart its long term targets.
Being part of the external analysis when carrying out a strategic assessment or performing a market study, PESTEL gives an overview of diverse macro-environmental factors that any company should thoughtfully consider. By perceiving these outside environments, businesses can maximally benefit from the opportunities while minimizing the threats to the organization.
Key Factors Examined by PESTEL Analysis:
- Political – What opportunities and pressures are brought by political bodies and what is the degree of public regulations’ impact on the business?
- Economic – What economic policies, trends and structures are expected to affect the organization, what is this influence’s degree?
- Sociological – What cultural and societal aspects will work upon the demand for the business’s products and operations?
- Technological – What impact do the technological aspects, innovations, incentives and barriers have on the organization?
- Environmental – What environmental and ecological facets, both locally and farther afield, are likely to predetermine the business?
- Legal – What laws and legislation will exert influence on the style the business is carried out?
IFE, EFE, IE Matrices
The Internal Factor Evaluation matrix (IFE matrix) is a strategic management tool helping audit or evaluate major weaknesses and strengths in a business’s functional areas. In addition, IFE matrix serves as a basis for identifying and assessing relationships amongst those areas. The IFE matrix is utilised in strategy formulation.
The External Factor Evaluation matrix (EFE matrix) is a tool of strategic management that is typically utilised to assess current market conditions. It is an ideal instrument for visualising and prioritising the threats and opportunities a firm is facing.
The essential difference between the above mentioned matrices lies in the type of factors incorporated in the model; whilst the latter is engaged in internal factors, the former deals exceptionally with external factors – those exposed to social, political, economic, legal, etc. external forces.
Being a continuation of the EFE matrix and IFE matrix models, the Internal External matrix (IE matrix) rests upon an investigation of external and internal business factors integrated into one suggestive model.
Porter Five Forces Analysis
The Porter’s five forces analysis studies the industry of operation and helps the company find new sources of competitive advantage. The analysis surveys an industry through five major questions:
- What composes a threat of substitute products and services?
- Is there a threat of new competitors entering the market?
- What is the intensity of competitive rivalry?
- How big is the bargaining power of buyers?
- How significant is the bargaining power of suppliers?
VRIO Analysis
VRIO stands for Value, Rarity, Imitability, Organization. This analysis helps to evaluate all company’s resources and capabilities and bring them together into one aggregate table that includes:
- Tangible resources
- Financial
- Physical
- Technological
- Organizational
- Intangible resources
- Human
- Innovation and Creativity
- Reputation
- Organizational capabilities
The result of the analysis gives a clear picture of company’s competitive and economic implications, answering the questions if the resources mentioned above are:
- Valuable?
- Rare?
- Costly to imitate?
- Organized properly?
