Business Environment
Cameron International Corporation with revenues of $6,134.8 million (FY 2010), net profit of $562.9 million (FY
2010) and an operating profit of $858.5 (FY 2010), provides flow equipment and pressure control equipment for both
land and sea oil rigs. It manufactured the blowout preventer on the Transocean BP rig that failed. It operates in
more than 100 countries through various contractual arrangements. The company has just recently ventured into FDI
relationships with a purchase of a Brazilian company that manufactures products for the Brazilian oil and gas
industry to support its expansion into that market. One of the weaknesses of the company is the overreliance on
the U.S. market, making possible future joint ventures and equity purchases in foreign markets a viable strategy
for expansion. Although the company has sales offices in Thailand and Malaysia, this area is a small portion of
the company?s activities.

Recently, Myanmar, formerly Burma, has reversed a decade?s long policy of isolation imposed by the ruling military
regime. Noted more for human rights abuses than anything else, Myanmar has suffered under sanctions and lack of
involvement in the international community. In 2011, the country reversed course with the election of Thein Sein,
a former military leader, the release of Aung San Suu Kyi, free elections, and negotiations with rebel groups. The
country is very rich in oil and gas resources with extraction as the most productive sector, but the ?business
climate is widely perceived as opaque, corrupt, and highly inefficient. ?Wealth from country’s ample natural
resources is concentrated in the hands of an elite group of military leaders and business associates.? (CIA World
Fact Book, 2012)
As a consultant you have been asked to prepare a report on the pros and cons of market entry into Myanmar, the
best means to enter, and potential difficulties if the company enters. The CFO has prepared a report stating that
the break-even analysis supports both FDI and subcontracting. ?
1. Determine which institutional and risk factors must be considered and whether they support entry or not.
2. Conduct a VRIO analysis to determine whether entry is supported.
3. Assess existing cultural issues to determine how they should be addressed should the company enter the market.
4. Determine if the company should pursue FDI with potentially more risk and higher returns, or subcontract to
provide component parts.
5. Recommend which joint venture partners the company should approach and for what percentage if the company
decides to engage in FDI.
6. Determine the three (3) greatest difficulties that may develop and the strategies the company should pursue to
these difficulties, should they arise.
7. Use at least three (3) quality references. Note: Wikipedia and other Websites do not quality as academic
resources?
