  • A New Stage for Overseas Expansion for China's Equipment
    A New Stage for Overseas Expansion for China’s Equipment Manufacturing Industry Deloitte China Manufacturing Industry Group Deloitte China Research and Insight Centre Preface China's Equipment Manufacturing Industry is one of the country's most important sectors and has historically focused on manufacturing construction machinery, sophisticated machine tools and power equipment. However, China's high dependence on new core technologies as well as its internal lack of innovation capabilities are some of the main issues preventing the industry from reaching its goal of restructuring and upgrading, as well as enhancing its capacity for independent innovation, all of which have been called for under China's 12th Five-Year plan. Given this, equipment manufacturers have been exploring various approaches in order to encourage innovative reforms, such as investing heavily into research and development, improving innovation transformation capabilities, cultivating innovative ideas and establishing innovation mechanisms. In fact, as the global economy increasingly integrates, China’s Equipment Manufacturing sector has begun to play a crucial role in helping allocate global resources. On the one hand, this is the result of China upgrading its equipment manufacturing technologies; on the other hand, the industry itself has benefited from a booming domestic economy which has resulted in huge market demand for equipment manufacturing industry products. Furthermore, despite the recent slowdown in the Chinese economy, such demands are likely to remain. Since the break-out of the global financial crisis, developed economies across the world have taken a new look at their modes of economic development. At the same time, many of them have encouraged a return to manufacturing production as a way to revive previously-languid economies.

  • How Large Chinese Corporations Establish International Competitiveness in Other Brics- the Case of Brazil
    HOW LARGE CHINESE CORPORATIONS ESTABLISH INTERNATIONAL COMPETITIVENESS IN OTHER BRICS- THE CASE OF BRAZIL Hans Jansson Linnaeus Baltic Business Research Center; Linnaeus University; e-mail: [email protected] Sten Söderman School of Business, Stockholm University; e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: A major feature of some large Chinese companies is the massive investments in the emerging markets of Asia, Latin-America, and Africa. One main driver behind the Government´s support of the firms, who invest in the emerging markets, is to strengthen and develop a global competitiveness: going from cost advantages in low and medium-tech industries to differentiation advantages in hi-tech industries. This has enabled Chinese firms to challenge the incumbents of many global industries, in particular Western firms. The main purpose of this paper is to describe and explain how two large Chinese firms have gained competitiveness in China for the global market (exit strategy) and transfer and adapt it to another BRICS country, the Brazilian market (entry strategy). The research is limited to the construction equipment industry which has been globalized for many years with a few major global firms dominating the industry. A theory on initial internationalization strategies is developed through an abductive research methodology. It was found that Chinese firms do not yet compete directly with major global firms such as Caterpillar, Komatsu and Volvo CE since the Chinese firms have mainly built their international competitive strength in the low- price segment, while major competitors focused on obtaining the higher-end of the market by relying on their perceived superior technologies, customer service and branding, which differentiates themselves from Chinese construction equipment firms, thereby justifying premium prices for their products and services in the high price segment.

  • The Machinery Sector in China
    Report: The machinery sector in China The machinery sector in China The Chinese machinery industry has been undergoing continuous rapid growth at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around 25% in the last ten years. Benefiting from China’s huge domestic demand driven by the industrialisation process and large investments, China has become the largest machinery producer in the world in terms of total output value. Recently, the sector has been undergoing economic re-structuring due to a slowdown in the pace of investment. Nonetheless, the ongoing industrialisation and urbanisation process will continue to be growth drivers in the future. The machinery sector is one of the largest sectors in Europe, where most of the machinery enterprises are SMEs. Opportunities for EU SMEs fall within knowledge-intensive and high value-added areas requiring a high-level of innovation and customised solutions. 1.1 Market size During the period of the Chinese 11th Five-Year Plan (2007-2011) the machinery industry had been strongly supported by the Chinese government, which greatly encouraged the development of the sector. China has now become one of the most important countries in the world´s machinery sector, with regard to the total output value, production capacity, number of enterprises, and the export volume. Chart 1 below presents the total output value of China’s machinery industry from 2006 to 2010. Chart 1: Total output value of China’s machinery industry from 2006 to 2010 (billion Euro)1. In comparison with the fast growing industrialisation process and investment during the last ten years the development of the machinery sector slowed down in 2011.
