Competitive Environment

The Impact of the Top 3 Strategic Imperatives

Competitive Intensity

  Why
  - The level of competition in fusion splicers has a big impact on pricing strategies. More Tier III vendors now offer cheap options. Bundled services are also becoming popular, which makes the fusion splicer market more competitive.
  - Companies are focusing on differentiating their products by offering different models or updating existing splicers at attractive prices. This helps them meet specific customer needs and keep their brand image strong by serving various market segments.

  Frost Perspective
  - Customer support and services, along with the products, have a significant influence on the market. Companies need to set themselves apart by offering great customer service, running training programs, and providing aftersales support. This has an impact on what customers choose and shakes up competition in the market.
  - To compete on price, companies often give discounts, run promotions, or offer special deals for buying in bulk. This draws in customers who want to save money and encourages them to take bigger orders.

- Disruptive Technologies

  Why
  - New ideas in splicing technology, like better designs or different methods, could boost how well fusion splicing works.
  - Some fusion splicers are equipped with cloud features, enabling them to send and store information, such as details about splicing processes and network setups. Keeping this data safe when it is transmitted and stored is key to preventing unwanted access, data leaks, or misuse.

  Frost Perspective

•   As fusion splicers use more automation, artificial intelligence (AI), and augmented reality (AR), technicians might need to learn new skills and get special training to be able to use the tools efficiently.
•   Fitting new technology into systems or workflows that are already in place can be challenging. Making sure they work with other gear and software is key to the efficient use of these disruptive fusion splicers.

Internal Challenges

  Why

•   The fusion splicer market is fragmented, featuring different companies that may have different standards and technologies. This lack of standardization may lead to interoperability issues, making it challenging for clients who want to shift to a different brand or model.

  Frost Perspective

•   While small companies are coming up with product innovations, they are handicapped by limited budgets and administrative complexities. This results in the low reliability and durability of fusion splicers.
•   Certification and thorough testing will be necessary to fulfill consumers' expectations and industry progress at a standard level.
