Detailed SWOT Analysis of Huawei Technologies
Strength
1. Emerging leader:Globally No.1 in terms of sales of networking equipment. Huawei had held onto this position since 2014 when it overtook Sweden’s Ericsson. Huawei is disrupting smart phone market oligopoly of Apple and Samsung. Not only it is the leader in its home country, but over the past 2 years, Huawei has climbed to the top in Finland too, selling over 10 times as many phones as apple. Huawei is the leader in smartphone sales in Portugal and the Netherlands and the second biggest in Spain, Italy, Hungary, and Poland. While the industry enjoys only single-digit growth, Huawei clocked its shipments growth by 30% and revenue growth by 40% for 2016.
2. Focus on Innovation: Huawei has kept its focus on innovation from its early days. Be it World’s first 5g implementation on power grids or Hybrid Cloud Core Network or even IoT, Huawei has been the undisputed pioneer in network communications . Huawei was the recipient of ‘Best IoV Innovation’ Award at World Intelligent Vehicle Conference 2017. Open Innovation has been at the core of the company, and the company has invested at least 10% of their annual revenues in R&D every year for the past 26 years.
3. Cost leadership: Huawei has been competing with Xiami with its lower-priced Honor which is exclusively available online, thus cutting on retailer costs. At the same time, it has been competing with Apple and Samsung with its high-quality higher-priced Huawei-branded phones.
4. Technical Advantage: Huawei makes all products of wireless communication, that is, the chipsets inside smart phones that interact with the networks, the telecom networks that transmit signals, and the handsets themselves. Huawei leverages this advantage by offering discount coupons to carriers who buy Huawei's network communication products, thus making them a sweet deal on the smart phones.
