4.0 Strategic and Market Analysis

4.1 Economic Outlook

This section of the analysis will detail the economic climate, the medical laboratory industry, the customer profile, and the competition that the business will face as it progresses through its business operations. Currently, the economic market condition in the United States is in recession. This slowdown in the economy has also greatly impacted real estate sales, which has halted to historical lows. Many economists expect that this recession will continue until mid-2010, at which point the economy will begin a prolonged recovery period. However, this should have a minimal impact on the Medical Laboratory’s ability to generate business.

4.2 Industry Analysis

Within the United States, there are approximately 16,500 laboratories that specialize in the testing of medical related compounds. Each year, these businesses aggregately generate more than $18.7 billion of revenue while concurrently providing jobs to more than 100,000 people. Aggregate payrolls in each of the last five years has exceeded $9 billion. This is a mature industry, and the future expected growth rate is expected to mirror that of the general economy.

These traits include income size, type of business/occupation; how far away from your business is to your customer, and what the customer is looking for.

4.4 Competitive Analysis

This is one of the sections of the business plan that you must write completely on your own. The key to writing a strong competitive analysis is that you do your research on the local competition. Find out who your competitors are by searching online directories and searching in your local Yellow Pages. If there are a number of competitors in the same industry (meaning that it is not feasible to describe each one) then showcase the number of businesses that compete with you, and why your business will provide customers with service/products that are of better quality or less expensive than your competition.
