and the markets in which FLSmidth operate.
Conclusions: Among the different strategies presented in the analysis the strongest and
best fitted for FLSmidth is the CRM strategy. This strategy will create
more value for the customers and help FLSmidth to better match their
needs and demands. FLS is not fitted for low price strategies and
therefore have to create customer value in some other way. By creating a
centralised CRM organisation where all departments within the
FLSmidth organization are represented FLS can more efficiently serve
all their customers needs, all the way from plant delivery to spare parts
and upgrades.
Other strategies, such as an environmental efficient cement plant, have
been presented and are also important parts of the future. A combined
strategy could very well be a success that is hard for the competitors to
match. (Less)
