NAME OF THE ORGANISATION: TATA MOTORS
In the following assignment we will discuss how TATA MOTORS in a developing economy like INDIA, is expanding its business in foreign market and at the same time facing threats due to Globalisation in domestic markets through SWOT ANALYSIS.

STRENGTH
The International strategy of TATA MOTORS has been so far to keep local Managers busy in new acquisitions, but they moved only a couple of senior Managers from INDIA to INTERNATIONAL market. The major benefit that TATA had with these acquisitions is to change expertise. Like after the acquisition of DAEWOO MOTORS the Indian company learned work discipline and perfection. Not only this about 2/3 of the export in the segment from korea is from Daewoo. TATA MOTORS not only focused on new products and expansion, but it also focusing on intensive management for creating new leadership for tomorrow. TATA MOTORS successfully bought JAGUAR and LAND ROVER in the international market and both these acquisition are contributing a good share of amount in the profits of TATA MOTORS. Furthur with the acquisition of stakes in Hispano & Marcopolo & manufacturing of Xenon in Thailand , it has been able to make deep inroads in the bus & truck segments in South east asia, like Malaysia, Thailand, Mayanmar, Brazil, Spain, Russia.
The company has had a successful alliance with Italian mass producer fiat since 2006. This has enhanced the product portfolio for TATA and FIAT in terms of production and knowledge exchange. For example, the Fiat Palio Style was launched by Tata in 2007, and the companies have an agreement to build a pick-up targeted at Central and South America.
In Domestic market its dealer in some location are now able to increase their viability as they are selling two brands both TATA and FIAT in one SET UP.
WEAKNESS
Despite buying JAGUAR and LAND ROVER, TATA has not got a foothold in the luxury car market in the domestic market of INDIA. Accordingly there is branding

    In 1991 the Indian government introduced a series of drastic reforms, liberalizing its government owned and controlled economy. Product expansion and new market entry became easier for companies in virtually every sector of the economy. This presented Tata with many opportunities to leverage its strong brand equity and financial resources to enter new markets and industries. The strong brand image gave it a tremendous advantage over competitors in a variety of industries. However, the government reforms also lowered barriers to entry and increased competition in all of Tata’s industries. Foreign companies flooded into India, threatening to take market share from Tata companies. The world was globalizing and India was liberalizing its economy. Tata was forced to consider its strengths and weakness, analyze its many businesses and their industries, and evaluate the threats and opportunities presented by this changing global economy.…

If they can increase their quality, their value would increase as well. Since they have control over legendary Ferrari and Maserati, the luxury sports cars, Fiat…

    The internal resources and capabilities of Tata have been analyzed, and it is determined that their core competencies include operational efficiency and effective design and innovation (fuel and cost efficient). From the Competitor and Competitive Analysis we are able to conclude that the Hyundai Accent and Nissan Versa base models are Tata Nano’s potentially biggest rivals. Moreover, it is plausible to suggest that the Tata Nano would only have a temporary competitive advantage in the U.S. In comparing three potential strategy alternatives to penetrate the U.S. market choosing from; Joint Venture, Merger and Acquisition, Greenfield, or to merely keep the Status Quo, we have identified that the acquisition strategy is most suitable as well as financially feasible.…

    Operating in numerous countries across the world, Tata Motors functions with a global economic perspective while focusing on each individual market. Because Tata is in a rapid growth period, expanding or forming a joint venture in over five countries world-wide since 2004, a global approach enables Tata Motors to adapt and learn from the many different regions within the whole automotive industry. They have experience and resources from five continents across the globe, thus when any variable changes in the market they can gather information and resources from all over the world to address any issues. For instance, if the price of the aluminum required to make engine blocks goes up in Kenya, Tata has the option to get the aluminum from other suppliers in Europe or Asia who they would normally get from for production in Ukraine or Russia. Tata Motors also has to pay close attention to shifts in currency rates throughout the world.…
