2. Life cycle of a JV
Rethinking the Business
Firms compelled by the pressures and threats posed by new or international competitors begin reassessing
their businesses to enhance their competitive positioning, including thinking of forging alliances
After thinking of forging an alliance, the form must establish the role it wants the alliance to play in its overall
business strategy
Crafting an Alliance Strategy
It involves evaluating a firm‟s value activities to determine which activities add the most value to itself and
which can be performed by other firms (alliance partners) and to re-distribute them accordingly
In this way, the firm can leverage itself through „borrowing‟ from partners and freeing up its own resources
In the event of an ally turning adversary, firms maintain fallback and strategic options to avoid adverse
eventualities
Structuring the Alliance
An alliance structure is given utmost importance. An appropriate structure should facilitate the realization of
a firm‟s strategic objectives and should be operationally feasible
The structure is determined by the role the relationship is expected to play in the firm‟s long term
strategy, the operational efficiency the firms would achieve and the learning the alliance partners would derive
Firms come together when they feel they have something to offer in return for something (bargaining power)
Evaluating Alliances
Both ongoing management and timely intervention play a part in ensuring that an alliance meets expectations
Firm‟s diverse experience with the potential and pitfalls of various alliance partners allow them to revisit and
modify, as necessary, their original alliance based strategies
