Global Top 6 Helicopter Manufacturers - Strategic Factor Analysis Summary (SFAS) Framework Analysis - 2015 - Airbus Helicopters, AgustaWestland, Bell Helicopter, Boeing, Russian Helicopters, Sikorsky
The report provides strategic insights into the overarching Strategic Positioning and degree of Environmental Responsiveness of the Global Top 6 Helicopter Manufacturers through a Strategic Factor Analysis Summary (SFAS) framework analysis; also referred to as Quantitative SWOT Analysis, against the backdrop of an evolving industry landscape & shifting global dynamics. The global helicopter market is currently facing a double whammy with the military helicopter segment impacted significantly by continued defense budgetary pressures & cuts underway across most traditional markets while the recent slide in global crude oil prices has been impacting the demand for new civil helicopters and activity levels of existing fleets engaged in the offshore oil & gas exploration sector globally. The situation has impacted the industry OEMs significantly which had been focusing on & working towards strengthening the civil helicopter segment to partially offset the impact of budgetary cuts on the military segment.
The medium to long term view of the sector, however, is promising with presence of strong fundamentals and long term, sustainable growth drivers & enablers spearheaded by technological evolution & R&D activity. The development of next-generation compound helicopters & tilt-rotorcrafts for military & civil applications has already heralded the advent of a new era that is likely to witness a significant expansion of the operational spectrum, capabilities & performance threshold of these machines which is likely to eventually transform & redefine their role besides enhancing overall effectiveness for a wide range of missions & operations.
The report provides an overall SFAS score on each of the Top 6 helicopter manufacturers based on an analysis of each company's strategic positioning & the degree of responsiveness to its internal & external environment respectively, thereby, making it especially useful for competitive & comparative analysis. The framework generates an insightful snapshot of the prevailing, overall strategic equation for each company by identifying, weighing, prioritizing & ranking strategic factors present in the internal & external environment through an Internal Factor Analysis Summary (IFAS) matrix followed by an External Factor Analysis Summary (EFAS) matrix based on their strategic significance & potential degree of impact along-with each respective company's corresponding degree of responsiveness to those factors.
The framework, thus, assesses the strategic positioning & the degree of responsiveness of each company towards the present as well as emerging market & industry dynamics to be able to harness potential growth opportunities effectively by leveraging its structural & core strengths while negating threats simultaneously.
SFAS, as a framework, thus, scores over the traditional SWOT analysis framework, in terms, of its ability to quantify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities & threats respectively based on the potential degree of effect of each strategic factor being analyzed and the company's commensurate degree of responsiveness to that, thereby, making it much more effective for competitive assessment & analysis and from a strategic planning standpoint with the creation of a quantitative strategic snapshot on each of the companies.
