We have an achievable bu

8、siness target of RMB 200 million revenue by year 2005, from which, 130 million comes from sanitary products and 70 million is generated by piping business. Among all the product lines, tank fittings, Pluvia and concealed cistern are the top 3 product lines with the potential of RMB 140 million or 70

9、% of the total Overall Chinese macro economic development is undergoing a strong momentum. In the next 5 years, it is estimated that GDP will grow at 7% annually, the growth of fixed asset investment will increase by 8%, and housing construction will also grow by 8% p.a. Chinese sanitary market is m

10、ostly a ceramic market, with an annual demand of 43 million units of sanitary ceramic products in China in 1999 which means the potential market of nearly 2 million sets for tank fittings as well as 2 million units of medium to high end cisterns sold in the market. With the growth in the housing mar

11、ket, Chinese sanitary market will continue an annual growth of 68%. Furthermore, due to the rapid increase of bathroom decoration, the medium to high end segment of sanitary products will definitely lead the industry growth. By 2005, the share of medium to high end segment will rise from current 20%

12、 to 35%,Market environment,SHA-4309-03690-08-15a.PPT-x,China could be a market of strategic importance for Geberits international business(2),As the largest construction industry in the world, China presents an immense potential for Geberits piping products. Both HDPE and Mepla possess significant p

13、roduct advantages over the currently used Chinese products. However, the significant price gap could be a serious barrier for a deep market penetration. For Pluvia, the opportunities are very attractive. Presently more than 15 roof projects, altogether 700,000 sqm are in different phases of the proc

14、ess of bidding Both Geberits concealed cistern and Pluvia roof drainage system are mismatched with Chinese traditional industry habits, this can only be solved by a long-term commitment in the China market and effective marketing. Due to the Chinese consumers traditional mindset that plastic product

15、 are lower priced, Chantier doesnt have an optimistic market perspective Right now, for most of Geberits products, the competition is not so tough, which means a golden opportunity for Geberit to become a market leader in China. It also means time pressure for Geberit. Currently competitors (e.g. Gr

16、ohe DAL, Caroma) are gearing up and will become aggressive very soon,Market environment,SHA-4309-03690-08-15a.PPT-x,Overall, the strategy of Geberit in China has not been fully achieved and sales and marketing are particularly weak(1),Strategy and sales & marketing,Although GSHA developed a strategy

17、 when founded, the strategic objectives to penetrate into the Chinese market havent been achieved-current strategy is unfocused The vision of GSHA is not communicated within the organization, nor is it implemented In comparison, GDAIs strategy is going in the right direction and is in the process of

18、 being implemented, They still have problems to solve, such as slow market responsiveness, poor customer understanding etc. The core competence of Geberit Europe stands for advanced technology, premium quality and brand, excellent pre-and-after sales services. This has not all been transferred to Ge

19、berit China Current product portfolio of selling Chantier, Duofix and public products is unbalanced. Strategic focus should be on concealed cistern, tank fittings and Pluvia and HDPE As to sales and marketing operations, GSHA has no clear strategy in developing distribution network,SHA-4309-03690-08

20、-15a.PPT-x,Overall, the strategy of Geberit in China has not been fully achieved and sales and marketing are particularly weak(2),Strategy and sales & marketing,Geberits products are sold through 3 channels: retail sales and project sales through distributors, and OEM Geberit lacks clear planning of

21、 retail network development and has neither intention nor leverage to monitor distributors network operations Project sales performance has been affected mainly by both poor customer services and incompatibility with current Chinese installation and application habits There are a number of setbacks

22、that need to be overcome to improve OEM sales: unsatisfactory product development and customization, slow market responsiveness and high pricing Except for a very few marketing related activities such as seminars and attending exhibitions, essentially marketing department doesnt perform marketing fu

23、nctions such as building up brand etc. Kohler has done far better compared to Geberit in the area of sales and marketing, such as raise brand awareness, influence customers and design institute,SHA-4309-03690-08-15a.PPT-x,Financials, organization and processes,The GM of GSHA lacks leadership. His ma

24、nagement style is self-centered. It is widely perceived that he does not trust the local staff. His personality is not accepted by employees. As a result, there is no motivating corporate culture, no trust between management team and staff, no motivation and commitment among the staff and high staff

25、 turnover. ( e.g. CCS ) The official organizational structure, which is changed frequently, is not implemented. Departments function is not clearly defined. Some functions ( e.g. HR ) are overlapping and some are not implemented. ( e.g. Marketing) The current operation process is production - orient

26、ed instead of market-oriented, leading to ignorance of market demands. The control of the whole process is only on paper and is not followed in reality. Although there is no open conflicts between them, the JV partners pursue their own (personal) interests. It is particularly obvious when recruitmen

27、t, promotion and lay-off are concerned. GSHA is on the brim of bankruptcy. More than 70% of products sold have negative gross profit margin, resulting in an increase of operating losses in line with increase of sales. The company cannot survive without a continuous cash injection from the parent com

28、pany. Although the operating losses of GDAI have been reduced as a result of improved gross profit margins and increased sales, the financial situation is still critical,There is no leadership at GSHA. GSHA is close to bankruptcy. GDAI shows positive development trend,SHA-4309-03690-08-15a.PPT-x,Geb

29、erit should aim for equity buyout and consider termination or bankruptcy as fall-back position,Restructuring options,To separate from the Chinese partner is a premise to secure success of restructuring Some key problems particularly affecting to HRM are related to the Chinese partner In addition, Li

30、das products are contributing to the huge loss due to their -7% gross profit margin and the sharp decline in sales volume due to shrinkage of low end market Therefore, only equity buyout, termination and bankruptcy are feasible Considering cost, time, risk and the potential impact on future integrat

31、ion and consolidation, equity buyout should be deemed as the first choice, and termination or bankruptcy as fall-back position The buyout and termination options depend to a large extend on the willingness of the Chinese partner and can take a long time. Therefore, Geberit should start preparations
