Mineral Group The company has relatively diversified number of commodities, has many customers of different organizations For many years, VMC has had many achievements in business production, contributing to industrialization – modernization process of Vietnam mechanics sector in general and mine sector in particular To be in accordance with the market economy and international economic integration that Vietnam is building and developing, implementing Decree No 109/2007/NĐ-CP dated June 21st, 2007 of Prime Minister on changing State owned enterprise to joint stock company and Resolution of the Board of directors of Vietnam Mine - Mineral Group on changing enterprises in the group to operate according to equitization model, VMC has officially changed operation to joint stock company model from March 30th, 2008 VMC has ownership structure as follow: State holds 36%, staffs hold 37.5%, trade union hold 1.5% and external shareholders hold 25% Charter capital of VMC is VND 40,850 million Before changing to equitization, VMC operated according to State Enterprise Law and was controlled by plan of superior, and thus business strategy building and administration of the company was not displayed clearly Business production activities of VMC mainly were to ensure output and revenue according to the assigned plan, even profit target When changing to operate according to charter of joint stock company, it is clear that VMC has to become more initiative and pay more attention to business strategy building and administration of the company This is also a common interest of all the enterprises when changing from State owned companies to joint stock ones From the real state above, our study group did choose the thesis: “BUILDING BUSINESS STRATEGY FOR MACHINERY JOINT STOCK COMPANY – VIET NAM MINE - MINERALS FROM 2015 TO 2020” to be the content of Capston project of International business administration master training program The objective of this report is to evaluate relatively comprehensive the real state of business production of VMC Find existing advantages, strong points as well as challenges, weak points of the company At the same time, discover opportunities, risks threatening the company in the future From that, build business strategy of VMC from 2015 TO 2020 Study group set the mark of 2015 for business strategy of VMC to give petition and recommend relatively comprehensive and specific solutions However, our group also set a goal that business strategy of VMC must have look forward to 2020 to be in accordance with the development strategy of coal sector which was built, as well as Decision No 186/2002/QĐ-TTg dated December 26th, 2002 of Prime Minister regarding ratifying development strategy for Vietnam mechanics sector to 2010, and vision to 2020 Table 2.7 Collecting the business environment of VMC Environmental elements Outside elements Integration trend, opening, joining WTO Rapid development of technique Environment of politic and law Competing pressure on providers Pressures from customers Pressures from hidden competitors Competing pressures from replacing products Competing pressures inside sector Inside elements Infrastructure, technique equipment Human resources Geographical places Economic zone of active development convenient Import-export activities Discipline of production and technique is weak no differences among products Product price is not competitive Information managing and monitoring mass projects have shortcomings Important level of elements for sector (high 3, medium 2, weak 2) Effect on VMC (much 3, medium 2, less 1, no effect 0) Affecting features of elements (positive +, negative -) Total points 2 + +4 3 + +9 + +6 1 -

with stability, sustainability Timely checking and evaluating and drawing out experience lessons together with more specific and suitable proposals in each period 3.3 Proposal Together with implement solutions and carrying out the business strategy in the period of 2010-2015, VMC needs to propose to Vietnam Mine - Mineral Group to get the regime of managing inside sector, create the favorable conditions for implementing strategy Have the policies of rising inside cooperation (Vietnam Coal – Mineral Industry Group) to upholding capacity of designing new products from Research Institutes and Companies of mechanical manufacturing 61 Forming the regime of cooperation among inside units to raise the capacity and experience of implementing large projects or raise the competition with international contractors Renovating the thought in mechanical development, raising the specialization and cooperation among TKV units to upholding available strength to reduce refresh investment cost, avoid the repeat, and create the competitive products 3.4 Conclusion Developing the mechanical sector under modernization - industrialization direction is indispensable trend of developing countries In the context of the economy of Vietnam running by enterprise’s structure and integration higher and higher, the mechanical sectors need to build rapidly the policies as well as development strategies to meet the demands for growth In the coming years, the sector of coal and mineral in Vietnam will implement the activities of processing coal and other activities of electricity, bauxite-aluminum, iron ore, cement, and chemical substances together with producing devices serving mine exploitation deeply Group of coal and mineral also builds and exploits new electric plants, processes aluminum in West Highlands, Titan in central zone, metallurgy These plans require large manufacturing mass and device repairing so that it is necessary some investment projects of infrastructure Statistics and general analysis about business activities of VMC show the strong and weak points, advantages, challenges of VMC Therefore, VMC needs to define that above reality is both opportunity and challenge Leaders of company must renovate the thought of implementing strategies, raise specialization, cooperation among units, uphold the available strength to reducing refresh investment cost, and create competitive products in domestic and abroad markets 62 The business strategies from 2015 TO 2020 and vision 2020 of VMC that our researching group suggested was considered thought result basing on analysis statistics and references provided by VMC They are also built on science base of MBA program together with business knowledge in the field of mechanical manufacturing of members in the group of research They ensure the elements: inheriting selectively, advance for acquiring new thought in modern strategy managing; suitable with the key values of VMC as well as strategy orientation of sector and nation; stable development because of having both rapid growth measures and deep development investment With nine basic methods, report proposes some detail contents for VMC to ensure the task of implementing business strategies, supervising, and evaluating timely Since then VMC’s steering committee managers better the bussiness strategies and achieves their objects Because of limited time, the task of collecting primary statistics, controlling market face difficulties Members have little real experience in setting up business strategies for mechanical enterprises so that report has may shortcomings However, our report is conducted scientifically and seriouslly We believe that this report will play practical role for VMC in managing, developing enterprises 63 REFERENCES Vietnamese: 1- Pham Lan Anh (2000), Strategic management, Science and Technique publishing, pp 49 2- VMC (2009), General report of business activities of VMC; No 31195/BC -
