Sloan School on May 2, 1988, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Management ABSTRACT Japan's 1985 Telecommunications Business Law established competition in the telecommunications industry. Nippon Telegraph and Telephone (NTT), which had been the monopoly domestic telecommunications service provider, now faces competition from new carriers and from its traditional equipment suppliers (NEC, Fujitsu, Hitachi and Oki). With the explosive growth of the Japanese economy, NTT faces excellent market opportunities, but it also faces dilemmas. The newly privatized NTT must position itself to meet both the short- term and long-term earnings expectations of the financial community and foster competition at the same time. If the government does not believe the market has achieved the desired level of competitiveness, it may re-write the Telecommunications Business Law in 1990. (which may call for the "break-up" of NTT). The thesis examines the nature of the NTT-supplier relationships, and the ways in which competition is altering these relationships, through a detailed study of NTT's product development and product procurement processes. NTT will be searching for new partners. The paper delineates NTT's strategy options and describes why the current industry structure, with one dominant national carrier, may be the ideal structure for both Japan and foreign companies. Finally, the thesis discusses the implications that the new competitive environment has for American telecommunications firms wishing to sell equipment in Japan.

Japan is moving from a protected, closed trading environment to an open market virtually devoid of overt trade barriers. In no industry is this transition being played out with more intensity, tribulation and conflict than it is in telecommunications. Japan's telecommunications industry has been developed largely through the efforts of one firm, Nippon Telegraph and Telephone (NTT), the focus of this study. NTT provided the technical and financial resources, and a stable, expanding market so that the four members of the "Denwa family" (NEC, Fujitsu, Hitachi and Oki) could grow and prosper. NTT built a "human network" between the companies to ensure cooperation and joint commitment. For political, but primarily for competitive reasons, these relationships are breaking apart. The four equipment manufacturers are becoming so large and capable that they threaten NTT's leadership of the industry. More important, each is vying with NTT for "account control" with Japan's major business customers. It is the battle for influence over the customers' buying decision that is the most divisive. NTT is facing new competitors on several fronts. New local, long distance and special services carriers have been given authorization to compete with NTT. NTT's local services ...

By far the most significant threat NTT faces comes from the regulators themselves. The Ministry of Posts and Telegraphs (MPT) is studying, and apparently is leaning toward, the eventual break-up of NTT into many companies. The political environment is also evolving into a competitive one, as MPT and the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI) contend for power. The thesis The study of NTT and the Japanese telecommunications market is fascinating and highly relevant to participants in the world's telecommunications markets, but these are not ideal subjects upon which to establish an analytical framework. This thesis is a study in contradictions. I am not a newcomer to the field of telecommunications. In my twelve years with AT&T, I have held positions in the following areas: international services, product management, sales, network engineering, strategic planning, field operations and human resources. On the subject of Japan, I was, and still am, a relative novice. Before embarking for Japan, I read through a significant amount of secondary research material on the telecommunications market and on the Japanese people. I went ,-. -mi~;;··~j·\· a ,+-irr.·rxlrr;·13~or;liF~,~=r-C~·-/Fu~s;.;t·E*~.lpr~r~Ciil'~:*'r~6)iY. ~ir~SL~1~.~·~Smll~C~~~i~TC~ljRI~~~LXCIIl ~'?"?*~ m(.lY7"J*-r^*,~*.Ix~n~rrrr*r r~·~·^- - 7 - to Japan with a number of firmly-held beliefs and convictions about the Japanese. What I discovered in Japan was that my logical, cogently-arguable generalizations about the Japanese were merely reflections of my ignorance. The longer I was in Japan, the more confused I became, particularly while involved in the labyrinthian pursuit of identifying what constitutes the "Japanese way" of doing business. The stereotypes quickly faded. As I gathered more data, through interviews, the fabric of the industry story became more colorful, detailed, complicated, multi-leveled, and filled with what appears to the Westerner as contradictions. NTT itself is faced with contradictions and dilemmas. It is being asked to help increase national competitiveness while at the same time opening its markets to foreign companies. NTT is expected by the financial community to improve earnings while it is directed by the regulators to ensure that competition prospers. It is expected to achieve financial returns on its R&D investments while disseminating technology for the good of the nation. NTT managers can, in the same breath, describe their company as the picture of economic strength and success ("The World's Most Valuable Company"), 1 which also fears for its very survival. l"The World"s Most Valuable Company," Fortune, 10 October 1988, 92. h ~r '~* r _( .*(;.'*.

It will be interesting to see if these long- standing, cooperative relationships can be maintained in the face of advancing competition. NTT is becoming increasingly uncomfortable with a scenario that positions its most feared competitors as its key suppliers. I approached the analysis from three vantage points. The first is from a Japanese policy-making perspective. I believe the thesis forwards strong arguments that would support the maintenance of a singular NTT as part of an optimal industry structure that supports both national competitiveness

    (Description abbreviated) 1 First of all, please allow me to introduce myself briefly. My name is Shigeki Yamaguchi, and I am in charge of the Enterprise & Solutions Segment. After joining NTT DATA Corporation (“NTT DATA”) in 1984, I engaged in development and consulting duties before being sent on loan, following which I served, in the Third Enterprise Sector, as head of a unit responsible for distribution and services industries. Subsequently, the Company conducted an organizational realignment, transferring the payment field, composed mainly of CAFIS, from the Financial Segment to the Enterprise & Solutions Segment. I was then in charge of the IT Services & Payments Services Sector. Starting from June 2017, as officer responsible for the Enterprise & Solutions Segment, I have been in charge of the manufacturing industry and solutions fields and network and cloud services as well as China & APAC Segment. 2 The Enterprise & Solutions Segment consists of three sectors. The first one is the IT Services & Payments Services Sector, which is responsible mainly for distribution and services industries. The second one is the Manufacturing IT Innovation Sector, responsible mainly for manufacturing industry, etc. The third one is the Business Solutions Sector, which pursues operations mainly for IT networks, data centers and cloud services as well as new technologies comprising AI and the IoT.

With data on 123–135 Japanese electronics/electrical machinery makers, we use a dyad panel regression methodology to address hypotheses drawn largely from em- beddedness theory on how the firms’ horizontal and vertical keiretsu business group affiliations and prior alliance networks supported and constrained partner choice in new R&D (innovation) and nonR&D (implementation) domestic economy alliances. We find that in the first half of our series (1985–1991; the “preburst” period), keiretsu served as infrastructure for new strategic alliances that by guest on September 11, 2016 had both innovation (R&D) and implementation (nonR&D) goals.

Afterpresenting a thorough history and description of the Japa- nese sogoshosha, Mr. Dziubla gives several compelling reasonsfor Ameri- cans to establish export trading companies. He also examines the changes in United States banking and antitrust laws that have resultedfrom passage of the act, and offers suggestionsfor draftingguidelines, rules, and regula- tionsfor the Export Trading Company Act. For several years, American legislators and businessmen have warned that if America is to balance its international trade-and in particular offset the cost of importing billions of dollars worth of oil- she must take concrete steps to increase her exporting capabilities., On October 8, 1982, the United States took just such a step when President Reagan signed into law the Export Trading Company Act of 1982,2 which provides for the development of international general trading companies similar to the ones used so successfully by the Japanese.

Without them this dissertation would never have been written. I knew almost nothing about video games before I started this and their patient explanations of things most obvious was greatly appreciated. I would also like to thank my advisor, Dr. Ruth Malone. In 2008, when I sat in my first graduate class, I was not sure if I even belonged. Dr. Malone encouraged me and helped me believe in myself as a person and as a scholar. She opened doors for me that I did not know even existed. Ruth has mentored me for the last eight years, and for this I am honored and grateful. I would also like to thank my dissertation committee, Dr. Ruth Malone (chair), Dr. Kit Chesla and Dr. Roberta Rehm. Their gentle and careful guidance has seen me safely through one of the most challenging journeys of my life.
