Paper

Two parameters define Tesla’s industry competitive environment: what Tesla is today and what Tesla hopes to become in the near future. Today Tesla delivers an EV in the high-end luxury market ($70k+), but plans to deliver an affordable ($35K) small sized sedan in the next few years (Kaufman, 2015). The differences between Tesla’s current and future plans affect the threats and opportunities for potential entrants, industry competitors, and buyers in the near term and long term.

Tesla Motors has confronted the market in an entirely unique way for the auto making business. Tesla plans to entirely bypass the dealer by providing vehicles directly to the consumer via the

Christianity assumes that our human nature is fundamentally and thoroughly flawed by sin, to the point where a divine miracle of grace is needed to allow us to trust Christ as Savior. Most people in Western cultures, however, do not consider themselves to be sinners and therefore feel no need for a Savior. Comment on this in the light of the detailed accounting rules and regulations intended to prevent investors from being defrauded, and the multi-billion dollar worldwide auditing profession that is intended to add credibility to financial statements.

The Quality and Safety Education for Nurses (QSEN) is an institute dedicated to the quality and safety for patients by helping nurses gain the knowledge, skills, and attitudes (KSAs) to provide patient care (QSEN Institute, 2017). Specimen labeling errors fall under the QSEN competency of safety. The purpose of this paper is to present the current problem with specimen processing and compose a second solution to this problem. The organizations that support my project, the National Safety Patient Foundation (NPSF) and the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI), will be discussed as well. Finally, an overall evaluation of the clinical practice project and preceptor experience will be presented.

As of 2013, Tesla owned 43% of the market share of electric vehicles in Canada (EVWORLD, 2013) and the market is expected to continue to grow, as sustainable energy becomes more of a way of life than a movement.  According to the Government of Canada, “the market for electric vehicles in Canada is growing as Canadians look for cleaner, more efficient vehicles. Research confirms that consumers in North America are willing to pay more for an electric vehicle if the environmental benefits are significant” (Government of Canada, 2010).  With this expedited increase in purchases of electric vehicles, the Tesla Model S is positioned well to obtain its goal of increasing its existing market share.

Just like the other industries such as apparel, electronics, and consumer goods, the automobile industry has accelerated its foreign direct investment, cross border trade and global production. The automobile industry has increased outsourcing and bundled value chain activities in major supplier chains. As a result, more developed countries that serve as suppliers have increased their involvement in trade and FDI. With these increased supplier capabilities, large national suppliers have become global suppliers and are now controlling multinational operations. This is because of their increased capability of providing good and services to various lead firms all over the world. The automotive industry has a distinct firm structure. This

Tesla has successfully combined demographics and psychographics to market their products. Tesla Electric Vehicle (EV) has addressed current consumers needs and solve our pollution problems. Some of the psychographic information that can relate to the current consumers can be the following:

One of the main political factors facing Tesla in the US are the incentives offered by different states and cities to Tesla owners. They must co-ordinate with these policy makers and inform the consumer. In China, the key political factor is that “the Chinese government wants to put around 5 million electric or plug-in hybrid vehicles on its roads by 2020, but to date reports have confirmed that there are a mere 70,000 electric vehicles plying on China’s roads. In order to promote EV sales, the government has set a target that 30% of government vehicles purchased by 2016 should be EVs. To reach the target set for 2020, the Chinese government is ready to fund nearly $16 billion to build electric charging stations. To further promote EVs among Chinese car buyers, the government is looking to impose a new tax on gasoline engines and has renewed the private-buyer subsidies for electric-powered vehicles for another three years.” (GuruFocus. 2014.

The United States Automotive industry has been dominated by five major auto manufacturers: GM, Toyota, Ford, Chrysler, and Honda. As globalization increases the domestic automotive market (GM, Ford, Chrysler) suffers from foreign competitors. Although with high entrance barriers the market suffers little to none from new entries. There are several reasons for this the largest being capital. It takes a lot of capital to obtain manufacturing plants, raw materials, as well as to hire and train employees. PASTEL Analysis

Bargaining power of buyers is seen as a moderate force (Kissinger). Brand loyalty is a strong force for Tesla’s when it comes to the company’s customers. Lack of significant substitutes limits the bargaining power of customers and is seen and a moderate force (Kissinger). Customers that live in suburban areas need a vehicle to get to and from places, adding the low volume of purchases made weakens the influence customers have on Tesla (Kissinger).
