The competitiveness of a company can be assessed on the basis of its general strength rating. If the dissimilarity among firms overall rating and the points of lower-rated rivals is greater then the firm has greater net competitive advantage. Alternatively, if the dissimilarity among a firms overall rating and the points of higher-rated rivals is larger then the company has net competitive disadvantage. In the above example, CPM Matrix demonstrates that Coca-Cola is the market leader and dominates its rivals with highest points of 3.74. Pepsi is the runner up with 3.42 points and Cadbury Schweppes is the weakest rival among these three with the score of 2.80. This Matrix also shows that Coca-Cola is strong in all the aspects of rivalry and has strong position in the market place. (3) Comments Read More
