WHAT ARE THE DRIVERS OF VALUE CREATION AND VALUE CAPTURE IN THE AIRLINE MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY ?

QUESTION 1

Page 3: Airbus vs Boeing Final

Airline Manufacturing Industry

• The global aviation industry was sized at $100 billion as of 1992

• Largest Segment : ($40 billion in 1992)Manufacture and Sales of large commercial aircrafts

• The 3 main players :– Boeing– Airbus– McDonnel Douglas

Value Creation and Value Captured

Page 5: Airbus vs Boeing Final

Key drivers for Value Creation

• Relationships with Suppliers : Impact the Cost to Firm and WTP– Development of new planes required huge investment and technical

expertise– Some suppliers with long standing arrangements bore 10% -20% of

these costs ( Boeing)• Usage of better technologies : Impact the WTP

– Each new aircraft demanded heavy investment in specific parts, tools, training of personnel

– Manufacturers had to consider the amount of new technology that is needed by the airlines

– Fuel efficient planes in demand– Too little : Model would turn obsolete and impact the WTP– Too Much : Plane would lose commonality with Siblings

Page 6: Airbus vs Boeing Final

Contd..• Relationships with customers : Impact the WTP

– Sales people dedicated to individual accounts– Typical delivery time : 2-5 years from the date of order– Functions : Building Contacts, Keeping track of fleet requirements,

Monitoring shifts of executive power• Government policies : Impact the Cost to the Firm

– High value deals are escalated to Government for clearance– Regulations, Fuel Prices, Subsidies, Indirect support etc.

• Demand for commercial aircrafts (Pull) : Impact the WTP– General market conditions : Recession, Boom– Passenger growth– Profitability of the airline industry– Infrastructure of airports and air traffic control

Page 7: Airbus vs Boeing Final

Key drivers for Value Captured

• Usage of better technologies : Impact the Cost to Firm– Automatic riveter; Super Guppies : Airbus– Airbus targeted the completion of manufacturing the

aircrafts in 9 months from the existing 2 years• Competition : Pricing strategies : Impact the Price Paid

– Walk away lease plan, Deferred Seat Plan : Airbus– Hence, each plane was sold at $30 million instead of $ 41

million• Government Policies : Impact the Cost to Firm• Supplier Relationships : Impact the Cost to the Firm

Page 8: Airbus vs Boeing Final

Conclusion

• Value Creation– Supplier Relationships– Technology– Relationship with

Customers– Government Polices– Demand for commercial

aircrafts

• Value Captured– Supplier Relationships– Government Polices– Competition– Government Policy– Supplier Relationship

WHAT WILL BE THE VALUE OF THE NEW VLCT TO BOTH THE COMPANIES?

QUESTION 3

Page 16: Airbus vs Boeing Final

Value of VLCT to either company

• Common pool of clients Greater EoS• Douglas would be eliminated as competition

and entry barriers for future entrants would be very high

• Key airports are congested VLCT might be the solution of the future in an industry of a lead time in years.

Page 17: Airbus vs Boeing Final

Co-Development: Possibility

• Lack of trust amongst traditional competitors with history of cannibalization

• Airbus might see this as Boeing’s way of infiltrating Airbus

Scope for Opportunism:• Airbus’s fuselage technology would cease to be

an edge• Boeing has the clout to develop advantage and

then defect

Page 18: Airbus vs Boeing Final

To produce or not to produce…

• Airbus and Boeing can choose to produce

– If both produce VLCT’s… to maintain market shares, they have to price competitively and hence would incur losses on the immense R&D cost

– If only one produces, there is clear competitive advantage, but according to game theory, reactive judgment of competitor would force copy-cat behavior

Page 19: Airbus vs Boeing Final

Subsidies: Balance tippler

• If Europe offers better subsidies than the US, Airbus and Boeing both developing VLCTs, Airbus can go for Cost Leadership in the VLCT market segment.

• If US government decides to reinstate subsidies in retaliation, then both developing would entail loss for both companies.

Page 20: Airbus vs Boeing Final

Co-operation: Value Addition

• Greater concentration in FI w.r.t Suppliers Greater bargaining power as a near-monopolistic leader

• Risk of R&D cost would be shared• Airbus’s technological edge + Boeing’s

collaborative process Cost effective practices • Possibility of arbitrage benefits due to

differences in financial climate of US and Europe

Page 21: Airbus vs Boeing Final

IF YOU WERE AIRBUS, HOW WOULD YOU RESPOND TO BOEING?

SHOULD AIRBUS COLLABORATE WITH BOEING IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE VLCT?

QUESTION 4

Page 22: Airbus vs Boeing Final

How strategic alliance creates value?

• Risk/ Cost Sharing• A full scale new development could cost

anywhere from $5 billion to $20 billion depending on the size and level of technology.

• Time taken would range from 4 to 10 years• A firm in a strategic alliance is also subject to

the risk of being cheated by its partner (apart from the usual risks).

Boeing vs. Airbus

• Boeing's payoff for leaving the new market untapped was positive, Airbus's payoff was negative.

• Boeing's best interest is slow development of other jets in the 400-plus category, while Airbus's interest is to end Boeing's jumbo monopoly

• Bringing a new jet with 400-plus seats to the market is always a risky enterprise but, game theory tells us, it is far riskier for Boeing than for Airbus.

• The best strategy for Airbus is to develop a super jumbo by itself.

Page 25: Airbus vs Boeing Final

Scenario 3

• Instead of developing a new VLCT, Boeing should acquire McDonnell Douglas the second largest player.

• This would increase Boeing’s market share substantially.

• Boeing already has its 400-plus category in the market, so it should focus on acquiring the competitor and then, slowly develop VLCT.
