...In the early 1980’s the San Miguel Corporation (SMC) and A. Soriano corporation (ANSCOR) group of companies, under the leadership of Andres Soriano, Jr. Addressed a long felt need for an effective formal planning system for the two companies. According to Soriano, the companies had developed their budgeting and long-range planning systems several years earlier but, despite the many advantages these gave them, they still were not satisfied with their ability to respond to the rapid changes in the environment around them. They, therefore, searched for a process that would enable them to upgrade their planning ability. SMC and the ANSCOR group, thus, sought professional advice from a team of experts on strategic planning. The team was headed by Dr. Peter Lorange, then professor at the Wharton school and consultant on strategic planning to the two companies. Soriano expressed this great satisfaction with the approach to strategic planning developed by Dr. Lorange and his team. In November 1982, Dr. Lorange addressed a joint dinner – meeting of SMC and the ANSCOR group and shared his insights on the implementation of strategic planning of the two companies. Following are excerpts from an article prepared by Lorange based on his address during the meeting as well on as the major issues raised during the lively open - forum discussion.

...Industry Analysis In its 110 years of service, Manila Electric Company (Meralco) has been one of the oldest and biggest companies to have survived in the Philippines. It is a company that distributes and supplies energy to industrial, residential and commercial markets in some areas of Luzon including Metro Manila, the entire provinces of Bulacan, Rizal and Cavite and parts of the provinces of Laguna, Quezon, Batangas and Pampanga. In addition, the company through its subsidiaries provides other services such as engineering, construction, information systems and technology, real estate and insurance. Porter’s Five Forces Threat of New Entrants Given the current position of Meralco, it is least likely to happen that competitors will enter its market since it would be difficult for them to compete with a company that is already established and trusted for more than a hundred years. Entrants who dare compete will be a lot farther from where Meralco is now, resulting to difficulty in gaining market share. Threat of Substitute Products or Services We are in a world where resources are limited. As to electricity, some of the alternatives for fossil fuels (commonly used for generating electricity) are solar panels, wind energy and water turbines. However, these are not good substitutes as of the moment since these energy sources are too expensive and have limited capacity. In addition, these sources though feasible still have lots of drawbacks that cannot be controlled yet. But with...
