Business Wire, June 10, 2008
DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c94239) has announced the addition of "Yamaha Motor Co. Ltd. - IT Sales Opportunities - 2008" to their offering.
Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd. is a Japan-based manufacturing company. The Company operates in four business segments. The Two-Wheel segment is engaged in the manufacture and sale of motorcycles, scooters and other two-wheel products. The Marine segment is engaged in the manufacture and sale of sail boats, water vehicles, pools, utility boats, fishing boats, marine engine products and other marine-related products. The Special Machinery segment offers snowmobiles, beagles, golf carts and other special machinery. The Others segment offers automotive engines and surface mounters.
Industry trends and drivers have a direct or indirect affect on IT spending of all companies operating within an industry. For example - increase in sourcing from low cost countries might influence Yamaha to relook at their supply chains, resulting in selling opportunities for SCM solutions, collaboration tools etc. Thus, we can conclude that industry spending on any particular IT product or service is an important indicator of the criticality of that product or service for the industry. Based on the IT spend information available in 'TechNavio', we have computed a 'criticality score' for various IT products and services, for Yamaha
Various company level developments and events are important indicators of selling opportunities and drive the sales of IT products and services. For example - an acquisition by Yamaha might result in opportunities for IT migration and integration services. By tracking these sales drivers (using 'TechNavio'), we have arrived at a demand score for each product and service.
Through an in-depth analysis of industry trends and drivers and company level developments and events, we have made the 'IT Selling Opportunities Map' for hardware, software and IT services for Yamaha. These maps have been divided into four zones representing Level I, Level II and Level III opportunity areas. Level I opportunity areas have the highest scores and hence, there is a high probability that Yamaha will buy these products and services. Level II opportunity areas have lower scores and hence, lower probability to sell to Yamaha Level III opportunities have the lowest scores and hence, unlikely to sell to Yamaha.
The report is meant for IT vendors and intends to help them identify selling opportunities within the company. Furthermore, the identified sales drivers can be used to penetrate these accounts or increase current share of the customer's wallet. Also, the report lists key IT spending decision makers, which enables the salesperson to directly contact the key executives within the company.
