The company took its name from this river, which was used for the production of hydroelectric power. Nokia as we know it today begins in 1967 with the aquisition of the Finish Cable Works, a telegraph and telephone cables company. Nokia started producing lots of products ranging from newspapers, footwear, bicycles, car tires, televisions and communication cables t personal computers, aluminum capacitors and electricity generation equipment, etc. The decision to alter its operations to mobile communication gadgets started in the 60s.

Term-paper: Strategy II Deadline: 07/12/2010 | Bachelor in Business Administration Student Numbers: 0874165 | 0878950 | 0830480 A bstract Nokia is the biggest mobile phone manufacturer in the world. It produces and sells more mobile telephones than any other company in the globe. This gives them a competitive advantage, especially in terms of scale of its operations. However, the fact that it has been slow to adapt its technology and production line to current trends, has given space for other companies to challenge its global dominance, especially in medium-long term. Smartphones are the next step in an extremely turbulent industry where innovation is the key for survival. It is for this reason that Nokia must adapt to continue its expansion for benefit of its different stakeholders. We present an analysis based on three strategic alternatives regarding the Operating System Nokia should use to implement its new line of smartphones, in order to compete with already established player in this segment and ensure long-term profits at the same time as bringing the highest levels of satisfaction to every of its stakeholders.

... ******************************************* Instructor’s Grade on Assignment: Instructor’s Comments: Executive Summary Within two decades, Nokia, a company that started as a wood pulp mill in 1967, became a leader in electronics manufacturing. Nokia has a complex supply chain making over 900,000 devices daily with 100 billion components from 60 different suppliers. (Nokia India: Battery Recall Logistics, 2011) During the company’s peak they experienced a defect with one of their batteries that challenged the company is ways they didn’t expect. What they initially thought would be a simple minimal recall of the affected batteries turned into a reverse logistic nightmare that put a strain on their resources. Once the media released the recall and headlined the potential of an exploding battery, Nokia was overwhelmed with requests for replacement batteries. As the company tried to devise a plan for the consumer to check if their battery was affected they ran into many logistic issues on access to internet, inability to deliver replacements due to topography conditions and unnecessary widespread panic. A well-defined media plan and recall process would have aided Nokia in being able to be proactive should a recall situation arise. Background Prior to venturing into the telecommunications industry in 1967, Nokia, named for its location on the banks of Nokianvirta River, was simply a wood pulp mill. The founder, Fredrik Idestam...
