We have also assumed that this will dominate approximately 40 percent of the total market share.

Success in world competition turns on efficiency in production, distribution, marketing, and management, and inevitably becomes focused on price. The most effective world competitors incorporate superior quality and reliability into their cost structures.

They compete on the basis of appropriate value- the best combinations of price, quality, reliability, and delivery for products that are globally identical with respect to design, function, and even fashion. If a company forces costs and prices down, and pushes quality and reliability up, while maintaining reasonable concern for suitability, customers will prefer its world-standardized products. The global competitor will seek constantly to standardize his offering everywhere. The strategy of standardization not only responds to the worldwide homogenized markets but also expands those markets with aggressive low pricing.
