Analysis of competitive disadvantage experienced by licensed manufacturers in emerging markets with rampant piracy

2

About the Keystone Strategy study

To date, piracy research has primarily investigated licensing enforcement drivers, as well as the rates and impact of rampant

piracy in emerging nations (like the BRIC countries) - specifically as piracy harms firms in developed markets such as

the United States.

Microsoft commissioned Keystone Strategy to study enterprise piracy in a new way – by focusing on companies within emerging

markets taking steps to play by the rules and reduce piracy.

----

Today, we release the results of Keystone’s first-of-its-kind study, in which we tackle the following critical issues regarding the future of piracy reduction and growth of innovation in emerging economies:

1. The perceptions and attitudes (distinct from enforcement) of emerging market companies taking positive steps to reduce piracy and play by the rules.

2. The financial impact of competitive disadvantage that firms playing by the rules face when their competitors engage in piracy.

Background

4

Central elements of Keystone’s analysis

• For this global study, Keystone looked at software piracy in the manufacturing sector for 17 different countries in the Asia Pacific, Latin American, and Central and Eastern European regions.

Study scope

• We reviewed third party research and conducted interviews with companies playing by the rules, and drilled down on one major company in each of the emerging market regions to see how firms were utilizing information technology, and how piracy was affecting them.

Understanding perspectives and attitudes

• We analyzed data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Business Software Alliance, the CIA World Factbook, government statistical reports, Microsoft research, UNIDO, software resellers, and the World Bank to assess the impact of piracy at the macroeconomic level.

Determining impact on companies that play by the rules

Our study focuses on manufacturing firms because they are the drivers of rapid economic growth in emerging markets

In China, the world’s fastest growing economy, manufacturing accounts for almost 40 percent of GDP.

Perceptions and attitudes of emerging market manufacturers playing by the rules

8

Key findings from extensive research and interviews with manufacturers in emerging markets

We studied the perceptions and attitudes of firms that play by the rules to understand the competitive landscape and their motivations (distinct from enforcement) with respect to IP

We arrived at four primary insights:

Protection of intellectual property is necessary for the growth of innovation

IT is a point of competitive advantage and differentiation – these firms are industry leaders in large part because of their use of technology

Firms are well-licensed because it’s the ethical decision; pirating software contradicts their corporate commitment to integrity and honesty

Licensed IT in particular has many technical benefits – it gives them the assurance of partnership with software firms which keeps their operations running at optimal levels

Value of IPR: Intellectual property protection is necessary for innovation growth in emerging markets

“I see much improvement in piracy in Russia in recent years and I expect it will lead to more innovation and more software development since both of them are connected.”

Evgeny Charkin, Chief Information Office at Severstal

“IPR [intellectual property rights] violations not only hurt businesses in Russia, but cost the Russian government billions of rubles in uncollected revenues from counterfeit products evading taxes and duties… IPR violations are barriers to new investment and impede Russia’s effort to join the WTO.”

Peter Necarsulmer, President of Coalition for Intellectual Property Rights

“The international community has attached even greater importance to IPR and innovation. China should never be lax in its IPR protection efforts as it moves towards a high-tech industry and other knowledge-based industries.”

Dr. Zhipei Jiang, former Chief Justice of the Supreme Peoples’ Court IPR Tribunal

11

Value of IT: IT is a point of competitive advantage and differentiation – these firms are industry leaders in large part because of their use of technology

“IT has increased the efficiency of the whole operation, not just the production process. Things are much clearer when we have access to the information at the right place at the right time.

In terms of information technology, everything in the business gets faster; all the production processes and supervisory controls are integrated and automated. And since glass manufacturing is a continuous process, it is important that the information is quickly available.”

Bharat Somany, Director at Hindusthan National Glass & Industries Ltd

“Software is critical to our business. Our board believes that it is a key differentiator of our business and a source of competitive advantage.”



12

Ethical reasons behind licensed IT: Pirating software contradicts the corporate commitment of licensed manufacturers to integrity and honesty

“Transparency is something that starts vanishing pretty quickly when you [pirate software]. Not only do you hide from others, but you end up having things in your own company that are hidden from you… there is no accountability when you go in for pirated software.”Bharat Somany, Director at Hindusthan National Glass & Industries Ltd

“We are a business with a very good reputation and strong ethics - we want to maintain that reputation. We do not steal.”


“When a company uses information technology illegally in its manufacturing process, there is without doubt an act of unfair competition, because some costs are avoided affecting the price of the final product. It is like avoiding payment of social benefits, evading taxes or not complying with the minimum environmental rules.”

Jose Manuel Gutierrez, Manager of IT at Fabrica (Crystal SA)


13

Technical benefits of legal IT: Licensed IT gives companies the assurance of security and frequent updates, which keep their operations running at optimal levels

“The way I see it, if you don’t actually buy the software, you have a black box – you can’t get any support on it and you cannot really build it up to be a solution which you would benefit from… No software is perfect and does need multiple iterations…That doesn’t work unless you paid for it and have a proper license for it that gets you instant access to updates.”Bharat Somany, Director at Hindusthan National Glass & Industries Ltd

“This [incorporating IT] has been very essential to the improvement of our business processes.”



“We will establish a long-term partnership with Microsoft to set up an effective software asset management mechanism. This mechanism will help make our software license management more dynamic, optimize the allocation of our software assets and provide better service to the company.”

How does the unfair financial competitive disadvantage translate into pirating firms’ ability to make investments by avoiding legitimate costs?

$837 Million = 12,700 molding machines for a plastics manufacturer

How much equipment can pirating firms buy with the $$ from their unfair advantage?

$837 Million = complete construction of 66 major manufacturing plants, or over 82 million square feet of

industrial land

How many plants can pirating firms construct with their unfair advantage?

$837 Million = 217,000 employees for a year

How many employees can pirating firms hire with the $$ from their unfair advantage?
