Due to population growth, diversity, technology, outsourcing, political factors, lawsuits, globalization, and demographics, all can have an impact on an organizations ability to plan, organize, lead, and control. Since 2003 McDonald's (MCD) has been on the move. Their ability to innovate in the food service sector is unmatched by competitors. Recently McDonald's has diversified their traditional food menu by adding a healthier food line, the introduction of Angus burgers, snack wraps, and the expansion of coffee beverage products. Their new coffee beverage line has been so successful McDonald's has been able to gain market share from Dunkin Donuts and Starbucks. McDonald's will grow on its own strength, but with a perceived economic slowdown investors should accelerate (MCD) stock growth (Micheline, 2008). McDonalds is the worlds best known brand name in the fast food industry with over 30,000 restaurants in operation worldwide. Opened by brothers Dick and Maurice McDonald in 1948, the restaurant has been successful since the start (Haig, 2004). From a production line of most common food to concentration on burgers, the franchising system of McDonalds works its magic in expanding domestically and internationally. Because McDonalds has a stable partnership with Wal-mart, Disney, and a large franchising network, and an improving business strategy, they can spend more time working to build a sustainable competitive advantage in order to stay on top of the fast-food industry globally (Finnigan, 2001). In achieving a low-cost strategy, McDonalds, the leader in their industry, uses diversification strategy in its international business, a franchising system that earns the most profit, and a Plan to Win Strategy to improve the companys overall performance (McDonalds Corporation, 2008). McDonalds starts out with a franchising system, which continues to play a significant role in its business. After collecting franchising fees, McDonalds continues to receive monthly service fees and property rent as ways to increase its income. Then realizing the value of real estate, McDonaldss implements its strategy and raises its income by marketing excess land property and buildings (McDonalds Canada, 2006). McDonalds has become a representative of globalization, sometimes referred to as the McDonaldization of society. McDonaldization .is the process by which the principles of the fast-food restaurant are coming to dominate more and more sectors of American society as well as of the rest of the world (Keel, 2007). The whole strategic planning process starts from extensive scanning of the external and internal environment of any organization the position of the company in the industry it operates in and to identify the relative strengths and weaknesses of the organization. McDonalds will constantly make changes on how they manage their business to surpass the competition and satisfy all the consumers. In 2005, Ford, Chrysler and GM had to change their business tactics and strategies to lure customers in and to stop the consumer from buying from the Japanese competition. These auto dealers changed their strategy by offering employee discounts to increase sales. Thus they needed to improve their strategy and adapt to the ever changing needs of the market. Strategies are developed because of the unexpected responses such as: customers expectations, new technologies, change in the environment or pop culture. Thus the companys strategy must be combined with a proactive and reactive strategy. To have the initiative and stay on the edge, a company needs to be proactive but in unstable settings it is also important to have good reactive skills. McDonalds will need to define the reactions then design and implement some initiatives (proactive) (Olivier, 2008). Forces and Trends What forces or trends will affect McDonalds? A business has to contend with: a unstable markets that change rapidly and unpredictably; having niche markets instead of mass markets; greater rates of technological innovation in products and processes; shorter product life-cycles; growing demand for tailored products or mass customization; and lastly the delivery of complete solutions to customers, comprising of products and services. This also needs to complete solutions to customers, and consist of products and services. This needs to be achieved at a low cost. Economic indicators generally fall into three categories, based on when the information was gathered and what time these indicators are looking to describe. The first category is known as a leading indicator. This type of indicator seeks to predict what will happen in a certain part of the U.S. economy. Housing starts and consumer confidence figures fall into this category since they foreshadow future economic activity. The second category is referred to as coincident indicators. These indicators try to measure changes at roughly the same time they are occurring. For instance, weekly jobless claims figures try to assess the U.S. employment situation as it unfolds. The third category is known as lagging indicators. These indicators show what happened during a specific period (Schultz, 1998). The Conference Board's index of leading U.S. economic indicators fell 0.1% to 135.8 last month, matching the 0.1% decline logged in December (CNNMoney.com, 2008). One has to monitor the economic trends like GDP trends, interest rates, money supply, inflation rates, unemployment levels and disposable income. Currently the U.S. is in a possible recession but in other parts of the world there is growth especially in Asian countries. Globalization has increased a many business opportunities. Globalization will lead to the creation of a universal customer, one who expects the same quality of products and services regardless of where in the world he lives. This does not mean one customer, one world, one brand or one stand. What it means is that because of McDonalds, the expectation of a customer from Nirulas (a North Indian fast food retail chain) is higher today (The Economic Times, 2007). Similarly, thanks to LG (Lucky Goldstar) and Samsung, the expectations from BPL (Buckeye Partners LTD) are different today. Technology is advancing rapidly. More consumers talk to each other on a telecom network. To meet the challenge of reducing cost and enhancing customer value requires a thoroughly different approach to the way business responds to marketplace demand. Technological The impact of the internet, portable information devices, electronic networking, and the speed of microprocessors has hade a tremendous impact on business. Since the impact of e-Business on businesses information is exchanged more quickly than any other thing. Because of this organizations can make quicker and more accurate decisions. E-Business has removed geographical and time restrictions for McDonalds. It also helps in the following: Recording and analyzing strategic management records such as processing these strategic management records into industry trend reports, market share reports, mission statements, and portfolio models. All the above need to be used to implement and control the business. Businesses are now more connected and knowledge seeking to improve the processes, quality, technology and overall customer delight. Due to e-Business there is more flexibility to improve and respond to the needs of the customers, vendors, government and to society. It is also reducing costs and making the supply chain more efficient. Political As a large company McDonalds may find it tough to handle regulations. McDonalds should also be aware of foreign trade regulations and the attitude towards foreign companies because it is a multinational company. Some of the social trends McDonalds should focus on are lifestyle changes, the age distribution of the population, and life expectancies. The cultural trends should include diet and nutrition, and health conditions, such as allergies, which affect the fast food restaurant industry. The fast-food industry is very competitive so McDonalds needs to strive to create a competitive advantage to thrive. Michael Porter developed the famous five-force model that shapes competition in an industry (Pharma, 2004). The restaurant industry is one of the most competitive industries. A major factor that adds to the industry rivalry is the fact that the entry barriers to the restaurant industry are very low. The fixed cost requirement is low but eh need for working capital is high. Creating brand awareness and franchise among doctors is the key for long-term survival. However, companys like McDonalds and Subway have created big brands over the years, which act as product differentiation tools. This will enhance over the long-term and quality regulations by the government may put some hindrance on establishing new operations (Pharma. 2004). This model shows a fair idea about the industry in which a company operates and the many external forces that influence it. This will be between large players (economies of scale) and it may be possible that some kind of oligopoly or cartels come into play. This is because the industry will move toward consolidation. Since early 2003 McDonald's has changed their business operations model and the results have been exciting. They have the revenue growth to prove it and the international exposure to survive an economic slowdown. McDonald's has re-established themselves as the premiere global food service retailer with strong management and significant dividend for shareholders (Micheline, 2008). When the market for a product is larger in domestic markets than the local firms devote more attention to that product than the foreign firms do, which leads to a competitive advantage when the local firms begin exporting the product. In the U.S. McDonalds has a huge local market which is more attractive to the foreign market. Thus it led to a national advantage. It also helped in predicting global trends. The customers in the U.S. are more demanding which has led to greater pressure on firms constantly to improve their competitiveness by innovative products, and higher quality. Globally McDonalds is seeing a rise in demand: due to global communications and cross-cultural experiences; because globally standardized products can be sold the same way around the world; and because McDonalds has implemented product modifications from country to country. There is local rivalry with other fast-food restaurants such as Burger King, Subway, KFC, and Pizza hut competing with McDonalds. More local rivalry is better since it puts pressure on McDonalds to innovate and improve. The direct competition has driven firms to work to increase productivity and innovation. All this has led to having to set up manufacturing overseas to mach lower labor costs of foreign competitors, decrease the product lines to achieve scale of economies in purchasing and production, and to restructure and organize to consolidate strategies responsibility for business at McDonalds Corporation. The following analysis will be used in determining the opportunities and threats for McDonalds. Some opportunities are the economic development of Asia and other developing countries, demographics favoring consumerism, and opening up through the World Trade Organization (WTO). Some threats for McDonalds include increasing government regulations, emotional issues, technological changes, cultural differences, especially in a foreign country, and competition. In the business world, one often encounters many differences between the current and future states, which further become a gap. In order to minimize the gap, a company should, clearly define a companys objectives and goals. In business terminology, goals are defined as statements that are formulated and lack specificity while objectives and likely to appear in exact form (Strategic Planning). Goals statements include five elements: task, what, who, timeframe, and deadline (Lukaszewski, 1990). McDonalds long-term objectives are as follows. To increase market share globally in the fast food industry. To create high brand awareness and loyalty. To be a true multinational company. To satisfy all the stakeholders. McDonalds will make every effort to ensure that its decisions, recommendations, and actions function to satisfy all relevant publics: customer and society at large. Ensure safe distribution (ensuring safety throughout the supply chain is a vital function of food items). To undertake more alliances and collaboration in order to raise the competencies of the organization and to broaden the product portfolio. Mission Promote diversity and inclusion among our employees, owners, operators, and suppliers, who represent the diverse populations McDonalds serves around the globe (McDonalds, 2007-2008). Vision The McDonalds system leverages the unique talents, strengths, and assets of the diversity around the globe in order to be our customers favorite place and way to eat (McDonalds, 2007-2008).
