CIIT LAHORE CAMPUS 13 INTERNAL A5DIT INTERNAL FA,TOR EVAL5ATION MATRI8 Introd&$tion 0=B matri# is a summary step in conducting an internal strategic management audit is to construct an 0nternal =actor Baluation :0=B; (atri#. This strategy formulation tool summari'es and ealuates the ma-or strengths and weaknesses in the functional areas of a business, and it also proides a basis for identifying and ealuating relationships among those areas. The 0=B (atri# together with the B=B matri# is a strategy/formulation tool that can be used to ealuate how an organi'ation or a company is performing in regards to identified internal strengths and weaknesses of an organi'ation or a company. The 0=B matri# method conceptually relates to the Galanced >corecard method in some aspects. The 0=B matri# consists of following attributes mentioned below. Internal Fa$tors 0nternal factors are e#tracted after deep internal analysis of the company. Ibiously eery company has some weak point and strong point that1s the reasons internal factors are diided into two categories namely strengths and weakness. Stren)ths >trengths are the strong areas or attribute of the company, which are used to oercome weakness and capitali'e to take adantage of the e#ternal opportunities aailable in the industry. =ea4ness %eakness are painful for the company means these are the weak factors which needs to be improe in future otherwise if they e#posed to the competitors they can take the adantage of it. Ratin) 0nternal weakness are further diided in two categories namely minor weakness and ma-or weakness same goes of the strengths :minor strength and ma-or strength; There are some important points related to rating in 0=B matri#. Hating is applied to each factor. CIIT LAHORE CAMPUS 14 (a-or weakness is represented by 2., (inor weakness is represented by +., (inor strength represented by K., (a-or >trength represented by 7., =ei)ht The weight range from ,., means not important and 2., means important, sum of all assigned weight to factors must be equal to 2., otherwise the calculation would not be consider correct. %eighted >core %eighted score alue is the result achieed after multiplying each factor rating with the weight.

The aerage weighted score for 0=B matri# is +.6 any company total weighted score fall below +.6 consider as weak. The company total weighted score higher then +.6 are considering as strong in position. Steps to de'elop IFE Matrix .ist key internal factors as identified in the internal audit process. @se a total of from ten to twenty internal factors, including both strengths and weaknesses. .ist strengths first and then weaknesses. Ge as specific as possible, using percentages, ratios, and comparatie numbers. Assign a weight that ranges from ,., :not important; to 2., :all important; to each factor. The weight assigned to a gien factor indicates the relatie importance of the factor to being successful in the firm1s industry. Hegardless of whether a key factor is an internal strength or weakness, factors considered to hae the greatest effect on organi'ational performance should be assigned the highest weights. The sum of all weights must equal 2. CIIT LAHORE CAMPUS 15 Assign 2 to 7 rating to each factor to indicate whether that factor represents a ma-or weakness :rating O 2;, a minor weakness :rating O +;, a minor strength :rating O K;, or a ma-or strength :rating O 7;. *ote that strengths must receie a 7 or K rating and weaknesses must receie a 2 or + rating.

CIIT LAHORE CAMPUS 29 Iur second strategy by taking into account strength Q 6 & opportunity Q 2 is open retain o&tlets in )&lf $o&ntries. The company can increase its target market by increasing its number of retail stores in gulf countries because a lot of Pakistanis lie in those countries so it would be beneficent for the company to increase its target market.

Gy concentrating on electronic adertising the can compete by increasing their target market. The main reason for electronic adertising is customers hae teleisions & internets in their homes, they can easily know about its products.

This company can inest in opening retailing outlets in suburbs areas & can earn more profits by reaching more customers. The second strategy by considering strength Q 4 & threat Q K is .ore do.esti$ prod&$tion. As *ishat is an e#port oriented organi'ation its 5,? products are e#ported. Gut there are other international brands also in other countries which are competitors of *ishat that is why the company should increase its domestic production. *ishat can easily do this because it has 24K,,, loomsL the highest te#tile capacity of any te#tile mill in Pakistan. =ea4nesses G threats strate)ies !=T strate)ies# The first strategy we propose to *0>DAT by taking into account weakness Q 2 & threat Q + is ad'ertisin) internationall*. *ishat as an e#port oriented organi'ation should increase its adertising in foreign markets.

Then we recorded these strategies in the top row of the ">P(, these are open retail outlets in gulf IH open retail outlets in suburbs areas. Step ( 0n the 7 th step we determined the Attractieness >cores :A>;. A> defined as numerical alues that indicate the relatie attractieness of each strategy in a gien set of alternaties. %e determined the attractieness score by e#amining each key internal and e#ternal factor, one at a time, and asking the question 9oes this factor affect the choice of strategies being madeR The range for Attractieness >core is 2Onot attractie, +O somewhat attractie, KOreasonably attractie, 7Ohighly attractie. Gut if the answer to the preious CIIT LAHORE CAMPUS 33 question is no, this will indicate that the respectie key factor has no affect upon the specific choice being made. >o, we used dash to indicate that the key factor does not affect the choice being made. The factors which do not hae any affect upon the choice being made includes the lowest employee turnoer, efficient information system, maintenance of imported machinery, and high production cost. The factors which are not attractie for the choice being made and receied A> 2 for the first alternatie that is open retail outlets in gulf are decentrali'ed organi'ational structure, less adertising focus, political instability, and shortage of electricity supply. The factors which are not attractie for the choice being made and receied A> 2 for the second alternatie that is decentrali'ed organi'ational structure, 0nternational =air Trade Certificate :0=TC;, increase demand of Pakistani cotton internationally, low market share in oerseas market and focus more on e#port oriented. As these factors do not show much attractieness for the first alternatie, so they all receied A> equal to 2. The factors which are somewhat attractie for the first choice are highly e#perienced professionals and opportunity to e#pand product line, and for the second choice being made are decentrali'ed organi'ational structure, good financial position$strong group, quality and guaranteed fabrics, political instability and shortage of electricity supply. As these factors hae some attraction to the choices being made like they hae highly e#perienced professionals will be helpful in marinating the new outlet. They hae the opportunity to e#pand the product line so can easily capture the new market. >imilarly they hae decentrali'ed organi'ational structure so it will be easy to communicate throughout the organi'ation for opening a new retail outlet nationally, they hae good financial position so if they launch their product at low introductory prices will also be effectie and later on profitable for them, and as there is shortage of electricity but they hae their own power supply plants so it will be easy for them to increase their production and cater more customers. As all these factors are somewhat attractie so, all these receie A> equal to +. The factors which are reasonably attractie for the first choice are good financial position$strong group, quality and guaranteed fabrics, 0nternational =air Trade Certificate :0=TC;, increase demand of Pakistani cotton internationally, low market share in oerseas market and focus more on e#port oriented and for the second choice are location of plants, highest capacity of production, opportunity to increase target market, and opportunity to e#pand product line. They hae good financial position so if they launch their product at low introductory prices will also be effectie and later on profitable for themL they are catering upper middle and upper class that are all quality conscious than price CIIT LAHORE CAMPUS 34 conscious, so opening new retail outlets will be ery profitable for them. They are e#port oriented and there is high demand of Pakistan cotton made products internationally, so opening retail outlet in gulf countries will be more beneficial for them. As all these factors are reasonably attractie for the choices being made so receie A> equal to K. The factors which are highly attractie for the first alternatie are high capacity of production, and opportunity to increase target market. They hae high production capacity so they can open new outlets in gulf countries and sell their products there and can capture more market as they are e#port oriented and financial strong group so by selling their products at low introductory prices they can capture mare market area and can get higher profits later on. As these two factors are highly attractie for the first choice being made that is open retail outlet in gulf countries. Step 0 0n the fifth step we compute the Total Attractieness >cores :TA>;. :TA>; are defined as the product of multiplying the weights by the Attractieness >cores in each row. The Total Attractieness >cores indicate the relatie attractieness of each alternatie strategy considering only the impact of the ad-acent internal or e#ternal critical success factors. The higher the total Attractieness >core the more attractie the strategic alternatie :considering only the ad-acent critical success factors;. Step > 0n the final step compute the >um Total Attractieness >core. =or this we added Total Attractieness >cores in each strategy column of the ">P(. The >um Total Attractieness >cores :>AT>; reeal which is most attractie in each set of the alternaties. Digher scores indicate more attractie strategies, considering all the releant internal and e#ternal factors that could affect the strategic decisions. The magnitude of the difference between the >um Total Attractieness >cores in a gien set of strategic alternaties indicates the relatie desirability of one strategy oer another. As the Total Attractieness >core is more for the first alternatie :open retail outlets in gulf; that is K.F6 than the second alternatie :open retail outlets in suburbs areas; that is K.7 so, the first alternatie choice being made is the best choice for *ishat mills. >o, best choice is to go for open retail outlets in gulf. CIIT LAHORE CAMPUS 35 ,ON,L5SIONS *ishat Te#tile is considered to be the leading organi'ation in the field of te#tile. The name *ishat has become has become a symbol of quality and standard. The quality of cloth is dependent of te#tile yarn to finished cloth. %hich is totally imported form arious countries. (a-or machine are merceri'ing machines, sober machine and C/&immer that con print cloth with 2+ colors. All the sub department of processing like bleaching, dyeing, printing, and finishing are working under laboratory instructions so laboratory is playing role of e#ecutie in quality control. All the schedules of bleaching, dyeing printing and finishing are prepared by the laboratory. The customer satisfaction is a basic criterion of *ishat Te#tile. They are producing good quality products and F,? products are e#ported. 8reat care is taken for e#port Products regarding. (arketers of *ishat Te#tile know the competition in the international market. They put their leel best efforts to satisfy the customer keeping in iew the costs of products and quality. *ishat has also a big share in local market. .ocal marketers are performing their -obs efficiently to enhance the sales and to satisfy the customers howeer in local market quality is lower then e#port market. >o *ishat has greater capability to preclude what they claim for. 0f we turn to human resource department we see that there are certain gaps in human resources management of *ishat Te#tile. This department is not established and not considered to be ery much important. .ow attention is paid to this department by upper leel management. There is lack of human resources planning, lack of recruiting actiities lack of -ob analysis, compensation and reward system is not ery much attractie and employees are not well motiated in *ishat te#tile. Ine good thing of this department is that the department let the employees follow the rules and regulations set by the organi'ation strictly. Attendance is strictly checked 4 leaes as well. >o there are good and bad both present in the human resources management of *ishat Te#tile. %e deeloped ">P( (atri# for *ishat (ills by following different steps like firstly we made a list of key internal and e#ternal factors than assign weights to those factors, identified alternatie strategies, computed Total Attractieness >cores and in the final we computed >um Total Attractieness >cores and reached at the strategic decision that the best choice is to go for open retail outlets in gulf. CIIT LAHORE CAMPUS 36 *ishat te#tile has the ability to produce what their customers want through e#cellent machinery and skilled workers in processing department and qualified marketing staff. Gut there are problems regarding human resource management and financial management. 9espite haing problems *ishat has good and increasing sales figures that will lead the organi'ation to prosperity again. CIIT LAHORE CAMPUS 37 RE,OMMENDATIONS AS599ESTIONS Irgani'ations with more or less profitability or unprofitably hae problems and there are always chances of improements. This is also the condition for *ishat te#tile. As problems and difficulties hae been identified, now here are some suggestions that may help the organi'ation to improe. 0n processing department there is a need of skilled workers. There are certain departments of processing in which employees hae been working since long but there efficiency is not improed and unsatisfactory results come out sometimes. The skilled labor will not only improe the efficiency but also will improe effectieness. There should be chances gien to skilled workers to enter the organi'ation. There should be female artists and designers in design department as females hae naturally more esthetical qualities than males. They will really improe the quality of designs and will introduce more innoatie designs. B#panding product lines that will gie more ariety to people of country could e#tend local marketing and ultimately sales would be increased. There should be more staff in local marketing department to enhance the sales figure and to capture wide area of local market. There is need to increases the staff in this department only three or four persons are working with all the affairs regarding let the employees abide by the rules 4 regulation, recruiting, selecting and other actiities. This area should carefully be handle to attract skilled employees and ultimately to enhance efficiency and effectieness. Cob analysis should be done to know what are the -obs needed in the organi'ation. 0 know some persons who are doing the -ob of two or three persons. Compensation and reward system should be brought at higher leel in order to let the employees be motiated and happy. There should be more fringe benefits for the employees taking into consideration there deotion skill and e#perience. This higher leel would make the employees more efficiency & effectie. There should be little compensation for trainees as well, as they can fulfill their day to day traeling and food e#penses. Gy doing this trainees will show more interest, more deotion, more potentials and will work with their full mental and physical efforts. CIIT LAHORE CAMPUS 38 The first aid and other medical facilities should be proided to the employees with in the mill area. There is continuous working in the mill and eery time there are chances of any accident or unpleasant incident. >o in order to handle this type of situation the first aid dispensary should be there with in the mill area. As *ishat (ills is e#port oriented company, hae high production capacity, 0nternational =air Trade Certificate :0=TC;, and good financial position, een if they offer their products at lower introductory prices will be effectie for them and will be more profitable later on. >o they should go for open retail outlets in gulf.
