FIVE FORCES ANALYSIS
The hotels & motels market will be analyzed taking hotel and motel operators as players. The key buyers will be taken as
consumers, and property owners, interior designers, and information and computer technology manufacturers as the key
suppliers.
Summary
Figure 7: Forces driving competition in the hotels & motels industry in Singapore, 2011
SOURCE: MARKETLINE M A R K E T L I N E
The hotels and motels industry is dominated by large international players, who compete intensely for a share of the
market.
Within the hotels and motels industry, where switching costs are rather negligible and competing on price alone is no
longer a key to success, brand recognition and innovation helps to attract first-time customers and also repeat business.
Suppliers include providers of various goods and services, as well as a qualified workforce. Due to a high reliance on
sophisticated technology and systems and the growing importance of mobile communication channels, some suppliers
may exert strong supplier power.
Globalization is an important key driver within the industry, with emerging and developing industries offering significant
opportunities; however, it also involves employing various business strategies and extra costs.
Some of these emerging industries, such as in Tunisia and Egypt, which had previously provided strong areas for
growth, have been hit by political disturbances. These events may have upset consumer confidence. How quickly these
industries recover remains to be seen, but the currently volatile nature of the tourism industry as a whole, will directly
affect the hotel and motels industry until confidence in the global economy is restored.

Buyer power
Figure 8: Drivers of buyer power in the hotels & motels industry in Singapore, 2011
SOURCE: MARKETLINE M A R K E T L I N E
Within the hotels & motels industry, which is both mature and very competitive, brand recognition is important to attract
consumers. A strong brand image helps to attract first-time customers and also to repeat business, as switching costs
are negligible in this industry. Differentiation between brands becomes important, as one particular brand becomes
synonymous with quality, price or a specific target age group for example.
Buyers are generally price sensitive, except in the premium market. Innovation is also vitally important in attracting
customers, as competing on price alone can be difficult. In the premium segment, companies can attract customers by
better security and more facilities, such as spas, gyms and integrating hotels into golf complexes. Larger companies
have implemented loyalty schemes, by offering a points system or air miles to regular customers, which reduces buyer
power.
As customers are numerous and mostly small in size, their buyer power is reduced, since the impact of losing one
customer is not a significant threat to business. However, as many of the countries with a heavy reliance on the tourism
industry have discovered, the reduction in the number of holiday makers and overall travelers’ number means that buyer
power has increased, as consumers have more options available, often at a lower price point.
Overall, buyer power is moderate.

Supplier power
Figure 9: Drivers of supplier power in the hotels & motels industry in Singapore, 2011
SOURCE: MARKETLINE M A R K E T L I N E
Suppliers in this industry are defined as property owners, developers and real estate companies, interior design and
furnishing companies, architects, management and training service providers, marketing companies, industry
consultants, and information and computer technology (ICT) manufacturers.
Real estate companies are often much smaller companies than hotel and motel operators and rather than being
globalized, they are usually local to the property they develop, which reduces their financial muscle and ability to
negotiate favorable contracts. Furthermore, hotels can integrate backwards and operate their own real estate business.
The quality and availability of supplier services and equipment is essential to the hotel and motel industry. Hotel
operators are reliant upon sophisticated technology and systems, including technology utilized for property management,
procurement and reservation systems. Applications, databases and networks must integrate easily with each other and
third-party systems to facilitate collaborations with partners. The growing importance of the mobile channel is clear. The
technology platforms used by hospitality companies must support and enable all user interactions to integrate in the
future, from phones to fax machines to personal computers to personal digital assistants (PDAs) to mobiles. This
strengthens supplier power.
The industry is also labor intensive. Staff costs are significant as success in the hotel industry is strongly influenced by
the quality of the service provided.
Supplier power is assessed as moderate overall.

New entrants
Figure 10: Factors influencing the likelihood of new entrants in the hotels & motels industry in Singapore, 2011
SOURCE: MARKETLINE M A R K E T L I N E
The hotels & motels industry is strongly influenced by travel and tourism trends. The situation within the industry has
changed significantly in recent years. The business used to be strong and the biggest challenge was finding space to
book. In recent times, many hotel and motel operators are faced with the challenge of finding customers. The recent
global economic downturn had an adverse effect on the industry’s performance and now more than ever, most hoteliers
are searching for demand generators and are relying on direct sales to impact revenues and fill the significant void left by
the ailing economy. This may act as a deterrent for newcomers; however, the growth forecast is positive, which may
boost the risk of new entrants in future.
It is possible to enter the industry in a relatively low-key way by opening a small, independent hotel or motel as a sole
proprietor. However, the industry is capital intensive, and for a large-scale entrance, upfront investment in buildings,
décor and furnishings, ICT infrastructure and staff is expensive. In a highly competitive business, conducting operations
using all the latest technology, as well as constantly developing the tools and skills required, is essential (e.g. allowing
travelers to check in to hotel rooms remotely). The more demanding customer of the future will want to engage with a
hotel across all touch points (i.e. text, email, and social media) where appropriate.
As tourism is not a vital consumer good, it will tend to be cyclical and travelers are increasingly expecting bargain rates
while refusing to tolerate lapses in quality and service. To sustain revenue growth in the premium market, operating a
chain of hotels is often an important strategy as it reduces dependence on tourism in any particular location. However, in
order to open an international chain of hotels, regulations in terms of real estate and buying abroad need to be taken into
consideration and can therefore be restrictive in some countries. The purchase, leasing, and management of property
may involve legal and financial complexities, necessitating spending on professional services.
Overall, the likelihood of new entrants is moderate.

Threat of substitutes
Figure 11: Factors influencing the threat of substitutes in the hotels & motels industry in Singapore, 2011
SOURCE: MARKETLINE M A R K E T L I N E
Substitutes to hotels and motels include alternative forms of leisure accommodation, such as camping facilities or
recreational vehicles, or informal accommodation with friends and family. Switching costs range from negligible to high
(e.g. the purchase price of a recreational vehicle).
While all these substitutes offer the same basic function of a place to stay, up-market hotels and motels often provide
added benefits, such as spas and restaurants. Additionally, whilst some of these substitutes offer reduced costs to hotels
and can undercut the hotels and motels industry, this switch is often out of necessity rather than choice, so when
consumers are in a more generally affluent position, the threat from substitutes is likely to decline.
The threat of substitutes is assessed as moderate.

Degree of rivalry
Figure 12: Drivers of degree of rivalry in the hotels & motels industry in Singapore, 2011
SOURCE: MARKETLINE M A R K E T L I N E
The industry includes several large hotel operators, such as Accor and Fairmont Raffles, with most of the leading players
operating several different branded chains. However, there are also a large number of independent players present in
the industry. Larger number of players means increased competition.
Many larger operators have diversified to some extent and own additional businesses, such as casinos, restaurants and
shops. To attract and sustain more business, operators try to offer more complex packages and value-added services,
such as free breakfast and parking, free third night, etc. Recently, a rising popularity of lifestyle hotels amongst major
chains has been observed. Such hotels cater to the conscientious traveler's demands for eco-friendly practices, social
responsibility, and affordable style.
The largest hotel and motel operators are fairly well insulated from unpredictable market conditions by geographical
diversification. However, others are based largely or exclusively in one country.
Exit barriers in the industry are fairly high because most of the major tangible assets are highly specific to their industry,
and thus harder to divest. This is a likely motivator for many of the global leaders to pursue expansion through
franchising and hotel management services, as well as through the acquisition of properties. Many big chains have
adopted an asset-light business model in order to fuel expansion; selling off assets has allowed large competitors to
raise capital and invest in expanded operations, which again intensifies the competitive nature of the industry.
Strong growth in the industry helps to alleviate rivalry to an extent.
Overall, rivalry in the industry is moderate.
