division of the Toyoda Automatic Loom Works, Ltd. (later Toyota Industries
Corporation, now a subsidiary) is a Japanese multinational automotive manufacturer
headquartered in Toyota City, Aichi, Japan., a Japanese manufacturer founded by his

Toyota

Toyota is one of the world's major automakers, producing over 10 million automobiles
every year. Toyota Motor Corporation, a subsidiary of Toyota Industries, developed its
first product, the Type A engine, in 1934 and its first passenger automobile, the Toyota
AA, in 1936.

Following World War II, Toyota benefited from Japan's alliance with the United States,
which enabled it to learn from American automakers and other businesses, resulting in
The Toyota Way (a management philosophy) and the Toyota Production System (a lean
manufacturing practice), which transformed the small company into an industry leader.
Toyota capitalized on a quickly rising Japanese economy in the 1960s to sell automobiles
to a growing middle class, resulting in the development of the Toyota Corolla, which
would go on to become the world's best-selling automobile of all time.

Toyota's study of the five forces

Comprehensive examination of Porter's five forces.

New arrivals pose a threat:

All large enterprises in the automotive sector face the threat of new competitors entering
the market to take their place. Toyota, too, confronts similar issues, and the recent launch
of the TATA nano represents a significant danger to Toyota and other automakers.

7
Toyota

Because the TATA nano is the world’s cheapest automobile, it will undoubtedly
dominate in the world’s underdeveloped countries, and because TATA and Peugeot
collaborated to produce the car, Toyota needs to devise a plan that will enable them to
target the world’s middle to lower middle class. (Jhonson, S. Scholes, and W. Wittington,
2008).

Customers’ bargaining power:

Customers’ bargaining strength varies by location. Customers in European countries


enjoy exceptional bargaining power, owing largely to competition and their purchasing
power. On the other hand, in countries such as Pakistan, consumers have limited options
and producers demand a premium.

Substitute product threat:

In developed countries such as America or other European countries, this threat to Toyota
is significant because a variety of other car manufacturers sell their products with a
variety of different deals. For example, Citroen now sells the majority of their cars with
no deposit and no interest for up to three years, posing a significant threat to Toyota in
the UK. Because of the global economic crisis, people are more concerned about saving
money.

Suppliers’ bargaining power:

Because Toyota has a strong brand, this threat is relatively modest in comparison to other
manufacturers, as the brand confers a larger value on suppliers' products.

Competitor rivalry:

Additionally, this factor varies by region. As previously stated, European countries have
a plethora of manufacturers, which means that competition among competitors is fierce.
For example, whereas Toyota has just one major rival in Pakistan, Honda, in the United

8
Toyota

Kingdom, Toyota has competition from Honda, Peugeot, Nissan, Ford, and Rover,
among others, creating an intensely competitive environment.

• Statement of mission and vision:

Mission:

"To attract and retain consumers through the provision of high-value products and
services and the most enjoyable ownership experience possible

Vision:

"To be the most renowned and successful firm in the car industry by delighting
consumers with a diverse variety of products and solutions via the use of the greatest
people and technology."

Toyota Islamabad motors' objective is as follows:

Toyota Islamabad Motors has established specific objectives in order to remain the
market leader and meet the needs of its customers. These include the following: Enhance
Quality.

Boost Efficiency.

Cost-effectiveness.

Boost productivity.

Structure of the organization:

Toyota Motor Corporation's organizational structure is based on the company's diverse


business operations worldwide. Toyota's organizational structure is designed to meet
company objectives and strategic direction. This form also bears a strong resemblance to
the traditional organizational systems employed by Japanese enterprises. Toyota's success

Features of Toyota’s Organizational Structure:

Toyota's organizational structure is divisional. In 2013, this structure experienced


considerable alterations. This was interpreted as a response to the safety concerns and

11
Toyota

subsequent product recalls that began in 2009. Toyota had a strong centralized worldwide
hierarchy under its previous organizational structure, which was more akin to a spoke-
and-wheel system. All significant decisions were taken at the company's headquarters in
Japan. Individual business units were not connected, and all communications were routed
through headquarters. However, this organizational structure was severely criticized for
its inability to respond quickly to safety concerns. Following the 2013 reorganization,
Toyota's new organizational structure now possesses the following key characteristics:

1. Global hierarchical structure

2. Territorial divisions

3. Divisions depending on products

1. An Overview of the Global Hierarchy: Toyota has retained its global hierarchy despite its
2013 restructure. However, the company has expanded the decision-making authority of regional
and business unit heads in the current organizational structure. In essence, Toyota decentralized
its decision-making procedures. All business unit heads, however, report to the company's
worldwide headquarters in Japan.

2. Divisions geographies: Toyota's newly structured organization has eight regional divisions
(Japan, North America, Europe, East Asia and Oceania, China, Asia and Middle East, Africa,
and Latin America and Caribbean). Each regional manager is directly accountable to the
company's headquarters. Toyota's organizational structure enables it to adapt products and
services to regional market conditions through these regional divisions.

3. Divisions based on products: Toyota's organizational structure also includes a series of


product-based divisions. The company is divided into four divisions:

(a) Lexus International,

(b) Toyota No. 1 for North America, Europe, and Japan operations,

12
Toyota

(c) Toyota No. 2 for all other regions, and

(d) Unit Center, which is responsible for engine, transmission, and other associated activities.
This organizational structure element of Toyota facilitates the creation of brands and product
lines.

Toyota's new organizational structure is more adaptable than the company's previous centralized
hierarchical structure. The company is now better equipped to respond to regional market
situations as a result of this new structure. This adaptability enables Toyota to respond quickly to
difficulties and deliver higher-quality products. However, as regional heads' decision-making
authority has grown, headquarters' grip over the global organization has eroded. Nonetheless,
this organizational structure enables businesses to maintain their resilience and growth.

Learning:
Identification of problem:

1. Product/Service issues:

• Car booking issue: Customer facing a lot of problem while booking the car, wait for at
least 1 year for new car, the car would be again late to the specific time given to the
customer.

• Customers were not getting maintenance service: Customer were not getting
maintenance and repairing service from the official service center of Toyota due to high
Charges.

• Quality issues relating to interior and exterior of their newly-purchased locally


assembled cars

2. Pricing issue:

• Very Expensive Spare parts: Due to high Tax included to imported and original spare
part of car, their customer purchase spare part locally rather than from official showroom
which create many faults in car.

• Now Customer having multiple options for buying cars, having more options car in
reasonable price then Toyota. So threat of switching customer to other brand.

20
Toyota

Solution for above mentioned Problem:


1.Services issues:
 Solution for car booking issue:
The main reason of booking car issue is because Toyota ‘car demand is high but
production is low. So Toyota has to increase production by generating one more Plant in
Lahore for assembling.
While booking car the management have to guide clearly about the arrival date of car. In
case due short production, The CRM department have to convey about changed date via
email or SMS and at the late arrival of car they have to compensate/relax the customer
aggression by giving coupon ,voucher cards and by returning some amount of money or
freely giving safety or upper modified parts to satisfy their customer
Enhance the Customer relationship management plans to motivating and satisfying
customer

 Customers were not getting maintenance service because of high charges. so that
Toyota have to start awareness campaign to their target audience by telling
functional benefits that Toyota company have skilled worker especially trained
from Toyota head office and using electric automated machinery that charges are
high but service having more worth then its price.
Awareness Campaign plan:

1. Do your research: Toyota’s customer were not getting maintenance service at their
official workshops
2. Find your target audience: The Toyota actual users location,behaviouretc
3. Craft your campaign message: design message that that Toyota company have
skilled worker especially trained from Toyota head office and using electric
automated machinery that charges are high but service having more worth then its
price.

21
Toyota

4. Generating multiple Offers: Maintenance service to their official store will


generate the service card giving 100% accuracy of all their service which would be
more affected while selling their car. That service card proves of having100%
genuine and accurate car
5. Use multiple channels: use social media, SMS, billboard to communicate.

 To improve Quality issues firstly Toyota have to create customer survey which
generate customer’s feedback that what they actually want. Generate a complain
cell to tackle complains and take action to satisfy their customer
Increase customer satisfaction Plan:
1. Understand your customer:
Toyota have to understand their customer actual desire that having poor interior
quality of car

2. Customer survey:
Customer survey that why and when their customer facing issue which generate their
actual feedback
3. Treat customer as a VIP:
Treat customer their special customer by impressing, motivating and Compensate by
rewarding that they are using premium and best quality and better be next time.
4. Omnichennel approach:
Use social media E-Survey form, physically survey to gather all the information and
then work to action on Quality assurance department to improve quality
5. Multiple supplier:
While having multiple supplier then there will be less influence of power

22
Toyota

2. Pricing issue:
 The increase in price of spare parts of Toyota is because of imported product,
taxes are included. So they have to buy parts from local manufacturer and ask
them to make parts as genuine and quality product and approved from Toyota.
Awareness of guarantee:
Toyota has to insure their customer that they are selling quality product by giving
5 year guarantee of their product
Relax customer by giving quality product having no fault in future
Sales promotion:
Toyota showroom from where purchasing of car besides to other cards company
have to issue loyalty card to the customer so that’s why customer become loyal to
showroom while purchasing of car or other spare parts having maximum
percentage of discount in product. They also have to insure that they are selling
quality.
This creates a great word of mouth for Toyota’s product.

 Toyota company have ensure their customer by social media and electronic media
campaign by giving value to money of our customer that they are purchasing best
car at best time and price
Value to money: Toyota have to increase value to money by showing their
functional benefits of car that Toyota introduce fuel efficient car
By showing more value to buy Toyota car in their campaign with great features
and brand image played in social media(fb,instagram,twiter,utube) and in
electronic media

Conclusion:
Toyota has delineated that they are a solid organization. Furthermore, they have designated and
remained in front of their competition. They have led the way for vehicles targeted towards
middle-class families and middle-aged drivers. There should be improvement and tailoring the

23
Toyota

technology for the needs of the customers so that there will maximum productivity. The strength
of the organization is its enhanced item range, exceptionally designated advertising and a
guarantee to incline assembling and quality. The companies also maximize profit through
efficient manufacturing approaches. A shift toward smaller, more fuel-efficient vehicles, which
Toyota can manufacture at a relatively low price, will support growth in Pakistan.
