In order to remain the leaders of innovation and advancement, the transformation must continue developing so as to stay aware of the requests of the customers. The way toward making a breakthrough in the market is to have values in the administration for which clients will be able to afford (Lee, 2006).

Numerous electric vehicles today are stopped and charged at home while others utilize open charging stations while they are out running errands. The charging stations are convenient for clients when their battery starts to run low. Using the solar panel it will charge the electric vehicle without the need to utilize a charging station, and will spare the client from the need to locate an open charging station. The solar panel panels will also spare the customer’s cash at last since they won’t need to pay for charging the vehicle at the station. As of now, the electric vehicles are the module electric vehicle or the module cross breed electric vehicle. Moreover, the solar panels will be user-friendly, utilizing renewable light and solar energy. Both domestic and commercial usage would reduce the amount of carbon dioxide produced by other sources of energy such as fossil fuels. Moreover, the product will have a competitive advantage over its generic competitors since it will have the present technology and also its dynamic use including use in motor vehicles (Simerson, 2011).

Mission, vision, and values all work as one. The company’s prosperity depends on these three variables being in a state of harmony with each other and should be durable. Therefore, the three factors for the division should be in line with those of the company to ensure its success. All of them are oriented to creating enabling and innovative products that can compete fairly in the market. Given that the division has a reasonable mission and vision explanation will permit them to develop and keep up a positive notoriety in the groups that they work together in.

How vision, mission, and values guide the division’s strategic direction

The mission is division’s purpose behind presence. It regularly mirrors the qualities and convictions of top supervisors in the division. A mission statement is the expansive meaning of the authoritative mission. Vision, mission and values motivates workers and gives a concentration and course to setting of higher level targets. It ought to guide workers in settling on choices and build up what the division does. Mission statement is significant for the division to flourish and develop (Olsen, 2013).

Guiding principles

The mission statement, vision, and corporate values are essential pieces in the objective of accomplishing the overall strategy. Regardless of the division’s position, employees ought to know or have some thought of the general heading that the division is working towards. The Samsung employees will realize what the mission, vision, guidelines, and values are very vital in the success of the divisions. The administration will stretch their significance consistently. If one worker do not abide by the ethical code of conduct and flop in one area of work, then there is a shot that the division will not see the vital goals accomplished. Every part should be considered as a guide, and when taken after, Samsung will effectively achieve its last goal.

Innovation remains a company priority as shown by its new products introduced to meet the ever-changing demands of its customers. One of Samsung’s strategies is the development of a new division to handle its aim for ‘green technology’. This section, which is actually a new model,aims to reshape the organization and ensure satisfaction of the stakeholders by producing solar panels. A strategic plan is needed for this new division and is mainly reliable on the data collected, and will conform to the main strategic plan for Samsung. This paper evaluates different aspects of the new section to understand the internal and external environment as well as a SWOT analysis for the SamsungCompany as a whole.

Internal and external environment

As mentioned above, Samsung has maintained its lead and competitive advantage in the different fields in the electronic industry through its innovative agenda and a grounded foundation of management. The company was able to surpass its projections and targets over the years, showing the advantage of resilience and strength in the industry allowing it to expand not only domestically but in the international markets as well.

Samsung has developed a reputation for pioneeringadvanced technology on electronics produced in the companyas well as revolutionizing the marketing strategies for the industry and growing distribution of the informationtechnology together with other products that come with enhanced security. The company is also known for its affordable prices and their discount programs.

This paper therefore focuses on discussing the internal and external environments of the company and their effects to the company as well as the industry as a whole. It will review different sources, databases as well as reports concerning Samsung that keep the company in the forefront. It also incorporates a SWOT analysis table that gives an inner view of the organization.

Both the internal and external environment defines every company. There are different external environment ranging from social, legal as well as technological influences that can affect the company. Samsung has seen different economic turmoil over decades of existence andhas experienced different political interferences that affected its business. The Electronic and Technology industry as a whole has also been affected by these factors meaning that every player must have suffered or gained in a way or the other (Michell, 2010). Samsung has remained aware of these factors and was able to employ different strategies as well as changes to ensure that its products remain the best choice forcustomers across different destinations.

Samsung and its new section will also be subjected to effects of the general environment toinclude both the economic factors as well as the political factors. Economic factors and the financial environment across the world has in different ways affected the situations of the customers and their willingness and ability to purchase Samsung products from time to time. These economic factors include issues of inflations that have affected different countries as well as economic depression situations that occur in one time or another. The company has recorded losses in existing areas and divisions at a moment that forced it to decrease its labor force through retrenchment and layoffs. The number of workers has drastically fallen over the years despite the increase in its sales through aggressive customer programs.

An additional economic fact is likely to exert pressure on the new division would be the intrusion of the government on issues related with the regulation on renewable sources of power such as increased tariff charges, as applicable in different countries. This will be in addition to economic requirements applicable to foreign products that have been instituted by each international market. The consumers from different parts of the world may or may not have access to the new products due to the state of economy in their particular countries with the following concerns: Are there economic sanctions? Is the country’s economy behaving poorly?

Political influences have also significantly affected Samsung and the technological industryin general. Political environment in this case, has majorly dependent on the government, and the powerful decision makers who have created different laws and regulations concerning the industry (Robbins, Bergman, Stagg and Coulter, 2014). Samsung had to deal with international sanctions and rejections among other devastating issues. The political class in foreign countries tends to intrude in the normal control of the technological entrance that sometimes include increased competition as more and more investors introduce their business.

Samsung resources, capabilities, and core competencies

Samsung’s asset includes an efficient management team, knowledgeable workforce and innovative employees with a standardized procedural method. It has also created a strong industrial reputation and has been a pioneer in several industrial innovations includingwearable technologies. Samsung has also created a system to identify and communicate with its target market. All these will be available to the new organization division producing solar panels.

Samsung recognizes importance of the value chain and operations improvement to increase the company’s bottom-line. Best business practices and efficient management can reduce loss and wastage to control production costs. The reduction of wastages that include time and other important resources will help the company to spend little in maintenance and easing the operations (Australia, 2015).
