Abstract:
Competitive advantage is influenced by dual mechanical system: endogenous system and exogenous competitive system. Compared with uncontrollable exogenous competitive elements, endogenous competitive elements exerting structural competitive advantage is of vital importance for companies to battle against disadvantages and achieve competitive advantaged independently. Endogenous competitive elements comprise: firm culture, dynamic capabilities, and complementary assets. At the strategic level, firm culture influences firm decisions; at the organizational level, dynamic capabilities create core competence of a corporation; at the practice level, complementary assets erect barriers to competitors. This study empirically analyzed Firm Sayyas, a leading firm in wooden windows industry having encountered countless structural changes of competitive elements, to uncover how SMEs can achieve competitive advantage. The empirical analysis shows that, cultivating endogenous competitive elements based on “firm culture, dynamic capabilities, and complementary assets” in the dynamic competition is an effective way to maintain SMEs’ competitive advantages.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the mediating role of competitive advantage in the relationship between managerial competence and financial performance of commercial banks in Uganda. Design/methodology/approach A cross-sectional survey was employed using 22 fully licensed and operational commercial banks in Uganda. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, zero order correlation and hierarchical regression analyses. Further, the bootstrap method was used to test the mediation effect of competitive advantage. All the analyses were performed using SPSS v21. Findings The findings reinforce the important position of managerial competence on financial performance of commercial banks. First, managerial competence enhances firms’ competitive advantage. Second, managerial competence has an indirect effect on financial performance through competitive advantage. Overall, managerial competence and competitive advantage are strong predictors of financial performance of commercial banks. Research limitations/implications The study employed only a single research methodological approach, therefore future research could be undertaken using a mixed approach and triangulate to compare findings. Furthermore, the findings from the present study are cross-sectional, considering the limitations there in, a longitudinal approach should be explored. Practical implications Emphasis should be put on improving the knowledge and skills of managers so as to attain a competitive edge in the market and thus register increased profits. This will help practitioners make legitimate decisions and conclusions that can foster business growth. Originality/value A mediation effect of competitive advantage in the relationship between managerial competence and financial performance was tested; previous studies have tended to test the direct effects.

Abstract:
The focus of competition in manufacturing industry has shifted from cost to technology. But competitive advantage based on technology can only be maintained by a policy of continuous renewal and innovation. There are never enough new products and their development is never fast enough. To recoup the heavy investment of resources demanded by the increasing pace and complexity of new product developments they must be exploited in the broadest possible marketplace. The paper discusses the sourcing, selection and development of innovative product ideas from the standpoint of an international automotive component supplier.

Abstract:
Business scholars and managers stress the importance of achieving and sustaining competitive advantage as a critical strategic step in enabling superior firm performance. Yet which types of competitive advantage may yield the best performance outcomes—and what contingency factors may affect this—remains largely unexplored. This article examines the contribution of price, product, and service advantages to market performance in international ventures. Applying customer value logic to the literature on value creation and value capture, the authors posit that the symmetric achievement of all pairs of advantages leads to increased market performance. The findings confirm this conjecture, while for the product–service advantage pairing, even asymmetry in achievement has a positive market performance effect when the asymmetry is toward service. Using primary data from a sample of U.K. manufacturing exporters, the authors find that price advantage has a direct positive effect on market performance, while the strong positive effect of service advantage is further strengthened (and the nonsignificant effect of product advantage becomes negative) when the distributor has high-quality relationships with the overseas customers and there is available production capacity, even in technologically turbulent environments.

Abstract:
Every company tries to achieve goals to gain profit and win the competition. To achieve this goal, the company must be able to demonstrate a competitive advantage. Therefore, the company always strives to gain competitive advantage by identifying, managing and optimizing their internal resources in the form of tangible and intangible assets that have superior characteristics as the power of generating competitive advantage. The sustainable competitive advantage by empowering their internal company resources can be defined as Research-Based View (RBV). The importance of research based views is contradicting with Market Based View (MBV) which stated that the more market oriented the more superior their competitive position. By using qualitative research (literature review), this study aims to understand and investigate how to create company performances through both point of views which is internal resources integration and market orientation based on competitive advantages.

Abstract:
Existed literature of competitive advantage mainly focus on organizational and strategic changes, whereas this study focus on how Chinese SMEs from manufacturing industry can win competitive advantage while confronting exogenous competitive disadvantage. Results show that competitive advantage influenced by dual system:endogenous competitive elements and exogenous competitive elements. Interaction of two elements could affect the outcome of competition. Exogenous competitive elements were uncontrollability, so structural competitive advantage which is based on endogenous competitive elements could keep firm to gain a competitive advantage, when exogenous competitive elements under the disadvantage conditions. Endogenous competitive elements are comprised of firm culture, dynamic capabilities, and complementary assets. At the strategic level, firm culture influence firm decisions; at the organizational level, dynamic capabilities create the core competence of the corporation; at the practice level, complementary assets erect a barrier to competitors. Thus, this paper analysis Sayyas, which have faced structural changes of competitive elements several times in last 15 years, and eventually resolved crisis favorably and become most dominant firm in the field of wooden windows industry, when exogenous competitive elements under the disadvantage conditions, to show that, in dynamic competition, exogenous competitive elements are the resource leading firm to gain a competitive advantage.

Abstract:
The study focused on the relationship between dynamic capabilities and competitive advantage of fast foods restaurants in Rivers State, Nigeria. A cross-sectional survey research design was adopted, while primary data was collected via the administration of a structured questionnaire. Three hypotheses were formulated that, the dimensions of dynamic capabilities do not significantly correlate with the competitive advantage of the firms. However, the result of the analysis disproved the null hypotheses, meaning that dynamic capabilities of the firms significantly influence their levels of competitive advantage. It was recommended that managers of the firms should encourage quick response to environmental changes, by enhancing their employees’ capability to detect, monitor and respond to competition. Also, employees should be exposed to current trends, technologies and business applications in the sector to enhance their competencies which will, in turn, improve the competitive advantage of the firm.

Abstract:
Fundamental changes initiated by globalisation, new technologies, intensive competition, fluctuating demand of consumers, as well as economical and political changes encourage managers to be pro‐active, take greater risks and choose innovative strategies. Besides that, a company's ability to gain competitive advantage becomes an urgent problem. However, the managers lack a clear approach to the determination of competitive advantage. That is why the article analyses some important aspects concerning company's competitive advantage and presents the results of the determination of company's competitive advantage by using analytic hierarchy process.

Abstract:
Competitive advantage (CA) arises from a firm's attributes that allow one firm to create better customer value than others. Organizations of all sectors of the economy believe that sustainability is a way to achieve a differential advantage. CA is recognised as being the major cause for explaining top organizational performance and is a fundamental goal of academic management studies. There are two main views about obtaining a stable competitive position in the marketplace; The theory of industrial organization, re-introduced by Porter in the 1980s arguing that competitive advantage is caused by environmental opportunities. The resource-based view, which argues that every company creates its own competencies and capabilities can result in competitive advantages. The article shows how the balanced scorecard (BSC) can assist organizations in obtaining sustainable competitive advantage (SCA). The BSC development is a response to the criticism of traditional forms of accounting assessment. Academics and practitioners recognize the benefits of adopting the BSC concept.
