1. Increase in Technological Sophistication
2. Improvement in Training
3. Accelerate Your Innovation Process
Technological Sophistication
An exchange of technology to compliment your core strengths shores up your core weakness and improves production capabilities to better serve customers. An example of this type of alliance is the alliance of Kinko’s Service Corp. (copy centers) and Xerox Engineering Systems to establish a nationwide network for faxing large-format documents. This service was especially valuable to architects, contractors and advertising agencies before file transfer protocol became practical. Kinko’s gets a revenue boost and Xerox gets additional placement and unit sales.

To receive a technological contribution or possibly a technological edge in your industry like the alliance between IBM and Apple to develop a new computer operating system that allows both hardware formats to communicate, or like Nynex Corp. and Philips Electronics who joined to develop screen telephones for residential use.
Training

After identifying the sources of manpower, searching for prospective employees and stimulating them to apply for jobs in an organization, management’s next task is the selection of the right employees at the right time. The guiding policy in general is the intention to choose the best-qualified and most suitable candidate for each unfilled spot, and to avoid commitments to those who will not work well. The obje

"What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet." --Romeo & Juliet, Act II, Scene IIWell, a rose by any other name may smell just as sweet to Shakespeare, but don't try to call the tax collector to ask a property appraisal question.

Innovation
The computer and electronics industries have profited greatly from alliance relationships. Innovation has become commonplace for firms that have chosen to work together. The University of Toronto’s Innovations Foundation signed an agreement with Northway Explorations Ltd. and Polyphalt, a private Ontario, Canada company, to deliver polymer-modified asphalt materials technology for longer lasting roads to the commercial market.
To differentiate oneself from the competition. Steelcase's alliance with Peerless Lighting, located in Berkeley, California, offers state-of-the-art office lighting. The relationship has brought Steelcase an additional $15 to $35 million in annual furniture sales. Also, they received additional dollars from the light fixture billings.
Technological sophistication, training and innovation are three of many reasons that you will want to have strategic alliances in your future strategic plans.
