BACKGROUND
Business longevity has
over the years become
priority due to the high
number of large and
stable businesses that
have given in to the
economic stress of
today’s unfriendly
business environment.
The high mortality of
business enterprises has been a frequent development particularly
following major economic events such as the COVID-19 pandemic and
the 2008 global financial crisis. Many companies are currently planning
and strategizing towards survival and finally longevity of their
corporations. However, very few firms have succeeded to survive for at
least a century and remain important in the present market.
So many factors may be linked to the success of business firms in
achieving their longevity and some remain of the top business firms
globally. Thus, this study focuses on assessing the main factors that are
vital for any business firms to survive for lengthy duration such as the
BAYAMBANG LGU EMPLOYEES CONSUMERS COOPERATIVE.

D. FACTORS AFFECTING BUSINESS SUSTAINABILITY AND LONGEVITY

I. ORGANIZATIONAL SYSTEMS

1. Does the company ensures constant improvement on business products and services?
Answer: Oo, syempre nagkakaroon tayo ng “innovation” na tinatawag. Yung market syempre
kung pare-parehas yung binibenta mo wala namang Hindi sellable sa market ang tawag natin.
Hindi siya fast moving so mag e-explore tayo. Katulad dito nag explore kame merong kaming
kalutan every friday night, gagawa ka ng gimik kase lalo na ngayong pandemic walang customer
ang gagawin mo pano mo sila makukuha bawal naman magpainom kaya anong gagawin natin.
So iba’t-iba ang ginagawa nating idea. Nagpapalit ng tayo ng idea kung ano yung mga pagkain
na nkikita natin na gusto nila nagfra-fried hito na kame dahil walang nagfra-fried hito dito. Yung
mga hito sa kanila puro ihaw pero yung hito namin iba namn ibang klase yun kase cultured so
parang ganun gagawan nating gimik kung minsan dahil pag nagluluto yung mga cook namin
ilalabas namin para lang makuha yung pansin.
2. Does the company maintains quality?
Answer: Yes, pag hindi mo menimaintan yung quality, yung mga product hindi rin nila
katatangkilikin
3. Does the company sets terms of feedback mechanisms and measurement systems?
Answer: Oo, meron tayo nyan, tinitignan talaga natin kung ano yung mga low fall, ano yung mga
dapat na ma-improve lalo na sa aming mga staffs. So tinitignan natin kung ano mga
improvements sa kanila, Dahil puro bago diba? Meaning, nagpapalit palage, may e-re-resign,
tinitignan talaga natin pano sila e-train about sa mga products natin. Tinitignan natin yung
quality, mga suppliers ng mga karne diba yan frozen? Wala ba yang amoy kase masisira
Negosyo natinn, pinapakain natin sa customers natin. Eh ang client natin mga staff ng
munisipyo, mga taong bayan. Pagkain yan dapat high quality yung pagkain natin, syempre yung
lasa na-maintain mo na gusting-gusto nila.
4. Does the company regularly assess its inputs and outputs?
Answer: Yes, kase ito ay cooperatiba, gumagawa kame ng mga financial statement namin. So
dapat lahat na libro yan may bookkeeper kame, mayroon kaming internal auditor/external
auditor kase dumadaan yan lahat sa CDA, BIR so lahat po ng mga yan. Mga sales and
investment lahat yan nakalatag, mayroon tayong bookkeeper sya yung nagre-record then
meron pa kaming encoder para makita lahat. Mabilis every transaction, para makita nila, lalo na
ngayon yung business namin dalawa iba yung dito sa kusina which is restaurant iba rin doon
catering iba rin yung grocery.
II. STRATEGY
1. Are the company’s strategies and business objectives always aligned together?
Answer: Syempre, e-a-align mo kasi yan, objective naming tulungan every member namin. Yun
ang gawa ng cooperative so dapat sila din ay makikinabang at tatangkilikin din nila yung
produkto namin. Dahil every piso count samin. Yung mga member namin tatangkilikin din para
pagdating ng isang taon, may tinatawag kasi kaming bibidindo na may makukuha ang bawat
isa. After the financial statement auditing pag malinis na mabibigyan sila.
2. Are the company’s outcomes usually be the continued good performance and
excellences of the organization?
Answer: Yes, yung outcome nga maganda, kung hindi maganda lugi na. Patay negosyop sarado
na. Lalo na ngayong pandemic, ang hirap hirap paano ka makakakuha ng costumer. Mabuti
samin ang naging costumer namin nung pandemic ay munisipyo. Mga frontliner, kami ang
nagpapakain everday 1,000 nakatao. Dun kami kumikita.
3. Is it necessary to the company to assess progress for strategizing?
Answer: Ay oo, natural yan kasi meron kang gagawin na mga strategy, priority mo yun.
Aactually, dito samin may mga trainings kami. Management training para I align mo talaga.
Titignan mo kung ano yung long-term para maka-survive. Ngayon ang pangalan ng aming coop
ay hindi na Bayambang LGU Employs Cooperative kami na ay Civil Multipurpose Cooperative
ibig sabihin nun umangat na kami. At pag multipurpose kasi high level na iyon. Marami ka ng
pwedeng pasukan na negosyo at isa sa mga target naming ay magpatayo ng mga fishpond.
Fishery na rin ang idadagdag namin. Kasama na din ang hardware at iba pa.
4. Is organizational excellence vital for the company’s business longevity?
Answer: Yes, kailangan yun dapat nag eexcel ka dahil kung hindi down na kayo. Kasi marami
kang kakompetensya ngayon. Syempre lalo na government yung kumukuha samin. Mayroon
tayong tinatawag na bidding. Papasok na ang bidding o magka-canvas sila. Dapat yung e-ka-
canvas nila sayo ikaw yung pinaka mababa pero high quality. Ganun yun tinitignan natin.

III. RESOURCES ALLOCATION

1. Is the company making sure that capital is spent on profitable investment?
Answer: Yes, tinitignan natin yan minsan nga hindi maiiwasan ang mga low falls na medyo talo
tayo dito pero pinapasok parin natin na makabawi. Actually, nangyari yan nong talagang
bumaba o mababa o nalugi ang aming CAMPANT nong hindi pa ako nakaupo dahil sa aking
leadership napalago namin noon. Depende yan sa nakaupong opisyalis o manager dahil kung
walang commitment talaga at suporta ang mga nakaupo,pangalan lang walang mangyayari sa
Negosyo

2. Does the company risk in venturing in order to stimulate growth and development?
Answer: Oo, para mas lumago, kaya naging multi-purpose cooperative yung level naming. Dahil
gusto na naming pasukin ang iba pang mga negosyo dahil marami ng kakumpetinsya ditong
restaurant. Tulad doon sa ming mini-mart grocery, mahirap din, nahihirapan din kami. So, nag
bi-venture pa kami ng ibang negosyo para kikita kami. Actually 120 members na kami ngayon.
Nagbigay na ang mga yan ng puhunan,ngayon aasa sila kaya kailangan magexplore pa kami para
mas lumago.
3. Does the company properly allocates money for its operation/projects?
Answer: Syempre, mag-a-allocate ka talaga kasi merong tinatawag na revolving fund ganun yan
mag-a-allocate ka talaga pero iba kasi ang COOP may mga allocated na ito halimbawa
idodonate sa kawang-gawa ganun. Hindi mo ma-steady na pundo na ito, capital na to, hindi
pwedeng may naka-allocate na every year may allocation yan so pag dating sa operation meron
ding naka-allocate at tinitignan naming. Hindi pwedeng huhugutin mo yung perang yung na
hindi lalago. Ang coop ay isang negesyo, negosyo ito so hindi mo ito pwedeng pabayaan.
4. Do the company employees participates in planning, intellectual, problem solving and
coordinating?
Answer: Yes, importante yan, dahil hindi sila pwedeng diktahan parati, pag nagmemeeting kami
pinapatanong ko, itatanong ko kung ano yong problema. With the manager, mayroon din
kaming general manager dito at operations manager. Nag-uusap kami, tinatanong ko sila dahil
sila yong frontline eh sila yong nakakaalam ang takbo ng Negosyo. ‘Yong mga costumers, kung
ano yong gusto ng costumer, what time magbubukas ganun. So, ini-instruct namin sila, inaalam
namin then ina-assist namin at nag-uusap ang board. Kami-kami sa board kasi yong gumagawa
ng batas na pinapairal sa negosyong ito. So, once na na-assist na namin at na-implement na
through the participate nga ng mga tao namin and once na hindi mo kinausap mga tao mo wala
rin.
5. Does the company have strong financial muscle for profitable capital-intensive
investment and also in strong partnership?
Answer: Yes, dahil lumago na kami eh. Tulad ng sinasabi ko level of 1 million na pera namin.
6. Does the company aligns with business internal resources and skills with the threats and
opportunities prevailed by external environment.
Answer: Oo, meron yan, kasi pag-ginawa, meron kaming constitutional by laws, nakasaad doon.
Tignan niyo pinapatakbo ko ang negosyong ito, then kami/ako rin ay isang may mataas na
position sa munisipyo maraming ginagawa. So, binibigyan ko lang ng time kasi dahil pangalan ko
ang nakataya. Maraming dapat matulungan na mga members. So, nagsacrifice lang ako para
sakanila hindi para saakin. May debindindo kaming paghahatian naming, share namin. Pero
yon nga gusto ko kasi na baguhin yong nangyare noon na nalugi. Nakita ko, kasi investor din ako
eh. Nagbigay ako ng pera ko para lumago. Wala, anong gagawin ko tumayo ako na chairman of
the board ayon nagtiwala sila. So, hindi ko inaalis
yong tiwalang yon para mapalago ang negosyong ito. Actually, magkakaroon na nga ng election
this february dahil maglalapse na yong aking termino bilang chairman of the board. Pero,
depende sakanila kung i-eelect pa ako pero nasa akin din kung ayaw ko na, kung sabihin kong
pagod na ako, ang gagawin ko uupo na rin lang maghihintay nalang ako ng debidindo pero ang
kinatatakot ko yong inistart ko na with my group mga bagong officers na kasama ko baka pag
napalitan yong mga officers wala na ubos nanaman yong pera from nothing. So, yon ang
kinatatakot ko pero siguro kaya na nila dahil once na ginawa na nila yon na mabangkrap to sila
ang sisisihin ko.
