Critical Analysis
• Failed Products
None of the PTCL products can be considered a failure per say, however, it can be said that some of their products have been
relatively less popular amongst consumers. For instance PTCL introduced their IPTV project, which did not receive
much enthusiasm. But once the organization further modified it and re-named it to PTCL SmartTV it has been making
tremendous sales ever since.
• Future Prospects
With its state of the art technology and resources, PTCL is looking forward to adapting and thoroughly nourishing
recent advancements in the telecom industry, such as the recent growing trend of the 3G technology.

SWOT Analysis of PTCL
![Page 56: Nadia Bashir Bc100200574 BS-Business Administration (Marketing)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e2c5503460f94b1aef4/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Strengths
• Market Monopoly• Skilled Workforce• Low Labor Costs• High Profitability and Revenues.• Sate of the Art Distribution and
Sales Networks• Largest Operating Landline
Network• Efficient R&D
![Page 57: Nadia Bashir Bc100200574 BS-Business Administration (Marketing)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e2c5503460f94b1aef4/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Weaknesses
• Excessive Hiring Practices • Does not Foster Professionalism• Lacks a Basic Single Sale Strategy• Lacks Training Needs Analysis
Techniques• Sticks to Old Legacies• Lacks Retention Policies
![Page 58: Nadia Bashir Bc100200574 BS-Business Administration (Marketing)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e2c5503460f94b1aef4/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Opportunities
• Form New Partnerships• Global Marketing Allows PTCL to
Acquire a Maximum Number of Consumers
• PTCL has Infrastructure and Real Estate Assets which can be Leveraged in Future
• Improving ICT Conditions Contribute to New and Improved Innovations
![Page 59: Nadia Bashir Bc100200574 BS-Business Administration (Marketing)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e2c5503460f94b1aef4/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Threats
• Inflation Contributing to Reduced Demand
• Political Instability Leading to a Distressed Situation for PTCL.
• Our Energy Crisis Interferes with PTCL Operations
• Due to the rapid increase in the rates of cyber crimes, PTCL frequently suffers from security issues.
![Page 60: Nadia Bashir Bc100200574 BS-Business Administration (Marketing)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e2c5503460f94b1aef4/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Conclusion
PTCL did not turn into a market monopoly over night; instead it invested a sufficient
amount of time as well as money to secure such a massive consumer base. However, with increasing market competition as well as consumer demand, it is likely that PTCL will be forced to alter their age old policies and subsequently retain their client base in
future.
![Page 61: Nadia Bashir Bc100200574 BS-Business Administration (Marketing)](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e2c5503460f94b1aef4/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
Recommendations
• Sufficient need for process improvement.• Need to define employee retention
strategies.• PTCL needs to introduce and implement
job-rotation strategies.• Employee counseling needs to be initiated.
• Requires effective automation in all departments.
