Supplier Power
• Factors determining power of
suppliers relative to producers
are same as those determining
power of producers relative to
buyers.
© Dr Adrian Kuah 2008
Power of Suppliers Is
High If:
• Industry is not price sensitive, as when:
cost of supplied product is low relative to total industry
costs
the suppliers’ products are easy to differentiate
the industry is not facing stiff competition for its products
• Supplier bargaining power is high, as when:
size and concentration of suppliers is high relative to the
industry
industry has high switching costs
industry is not well-informed
supplier has the ability to integrate forward

Threat of
Substitutes
• buyer propensity to substitute
• relative price performance of
substitutes

© Dr Adrian Kuah 2008
Threat of Substitutes
Is High If:
Buyer propensity to substitute is high
Relatively good price performance of
substitutes
Low degree of differentiation
BUT there is also the possibility that one's
own products could find new markets as
substitute for some other product.
