competencies


Key Questions in Build-Borrow-Buy 1. How relevant are internal resources? (if high, build)
2. How tradable are the targeted resources? (if high, borrow contractually)

Internal Resources are Relevant if 1. They are similar to those the firm needs to develop
2. They are superior to those of competitors in the area


Tradability - The firm create a contract to transfer ownership and allow use of the resource
- Contracts support borrowing resources (Licensing and franchising or contracts)


Closeness - Can be achieved through alliances enabling resource borrowing (Equity, Joint)
- M&As are complex and costly (used when extreme closeness is necessary)


Conditions for Integration 1. Low relevancy
2. Low tradability
3. High need for closeness
(Consider other options first)


Strategic Alliances - Voluntary arrangement between firms involves the sharing of knowledge,
resources, and capabilities
- To develop processes, products, or services
