In order to run business successfully and achieve growth, it is very important for Marriott
Hotel to set objectives, scope, mission and vision. They are as follows:

1.2 Factors that impact on business
There are various factors such as internal and external which can influence business and
their activities and operations (Arntz-Gray, 2016). The internal influence is within organisation
and can be controlled that is measured through SWOT analysis. Similarly, external influences
are outside business which cannot be controlled that is measured through PESTLE analysis.
These factors provide both positive and negative impact on business of Marriott Hotel which are
described below:
SWOT Analysis
This is used for internal analysis of business that impact organisation in positive and
negative manner. SWOT analysis is defined as strategic tool which is used for helping
organisation in order to identify their strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats for project
planning or business competition. It is very important for Marriott Hotel to analyse SWOT in
order to know their strong and weak points for carrying out business in competitive market. They
are described below:
Strengths- Marriott Hotel is leading brand in terms of hospitality industry which focus
on providing high quality services to their users. It has various strengths which leads it to earn
maximum gain and profits. This has set their own way for carrying out activities and operation
for employees which should be followed by them. It is present in 122 countries having 600

properties with 1.2 million rooms across world (SWOT analysis of Marriott Hotel International
Inc, 2019). Marriott Hotel has strength in terms of innovation as it focus on new ways and
methods to provide services to their consumers and guest nu ensuring value for money.
Weaknesses- It is defined as areas where Marriott Hotel need to make improvements in
proper manner for achievement of their goals and objectives in effective and efficient manner. It
focus on expansion which creates problem in maintaining standard of services at every location
that dilute brand value in market. Marriott Hotel is regarded as system driven business where
each and every employees is bound to follow procedure for whatever they perform work which
lower morale of working force. It focus on family business so plans, policies and values are set
accordingly which is not changed as per time and situation which is weak point for respective
organisation.
Opportunities- This is defined as environment where Marriott Hotel can increase their
returns and revenues (Boedker and et. al., 2017). Due to change in behaviour of consumers
whenever people want to travel with their family they can easily stay at luxury hotels which is
creating opportunities for respective hotel to increase their revenues. With rise in global travel,
Marriott Hotel has an opportunity to tie ups with various airline hotel chain for providing their
services to their guests and users. Nowadays, consumers focus on personalisation so Marriott
Hotel has opportunity to provide them with customised services and charge for it.
Threats- It is external factors that can detrimental business growth and success in
competitive market. The threats which can be faced by Marriott Hotel is in terms of competition
and economic recession. Due to increase in competition from various brands like Hilton, Holiday
Inn, Radisson Blu which creates problem for surviving in market. The global recession has
created threat for hospitality sector which has affected many properties and they are out of
market for sale that leads to low generation of profits.
PESTLE Analysis
It is defined as tool that is used for analysis and monitoring macro environmental factors
that can impact performance of organisation (Chang and et. al., 2016). This type of framework is
useful when firm want to enter into international market or start new business. There are six
components of this analysis which can impact Marriott Hotel business and its performance that
are described below:

Political Factors- The political factors which can affect Marriott are international
relations, terrorism danger and climatic conditions in tourist destination (PESTLE Analysis of
Marriott International, 2019). It is facing threat in terms of terrorist attack that is disrupting air
travel or frightens individuals to move away from travelling. For example, attack in June 2015 at
Tunisia where 39 people were killed in hotel beach which create problems for Marriott to scare
away potential guests and charge of security measures also increases.
Economic Factors- The factors which affect Marriott are slow economic growth of
Europe and China. It leads to market collapse in China and crises in Europe where purchasing
power of consumers decline for taking trip packages. This effect is tapering business of Marriott
Hotel. For example, due to high exchange rate in US dollars discourages people of America to
avail travelling and visit places which affect respective organisation.
Social Factors- This factor can help Marriott to increase their profits as number of
traveller is increased from past year and planning for trip every year with their family, friends
and others. This seems people are travelling more and ready to pay for more for better
experience. The respective organisation is impacted through culture and increase of Chinese and
Asian travellers. Here, European and American prefer more travelling and want to increase travel
experiences like luxury resorts and packaged tours which is opportunity for Marriott.
Technological Factors- This factor has large impact on Marriott Hotel because of online
rental services like Airbnb which provides private rented rooms to individuals or homes to
travellers. With use of technology, Marriott can provide easy booking and cancellation to their
users for effective outcomes. This can help to increase profits and gains of business.
Legal Factors- There are some legal laws made for hospitality sector which need to be
followed by them such as health and safety laws, criminal laws and others. Here, Marriott hotel
need to follow all legal laws for their business and consumer so that they can avail facilities and
services in effective manner.
Environment Factors- The factors which is disrupting Marriott hotel is prices of fuels.
The fall in prices of oil leads to reduction of travelling cost and demand of hotel rooms. The
threats which can be faced by respective organisation are sudden rise in cost of fuels. Due to rise
in global warming leads to increase in temperatures that make resorts and beach too hot for
comfort. This forces relocation or closure of hotel.

1.3 Potential improvements to business organisation and/or operation
It is very essential for Marriott Hotel to make improvement in business activities and
operation for achievement of goals and objectives (Ghaddar and et. al., 2012). For that they need
to identify best suitable strategies to make proper decisions in business in order to grow, sustain
and earn profits. The potential improvements strategy adopted by Marriott Hotel is Ansoff's
Growth Matrix which is described below:
Ansoff's Growth Matrix
It is defined as growth corporate strategies which focus on products and market of
organisation. Ansoff's matrix is developed by Russian Igor Ansoff for helping organisation. This
helps manager, executive, marketers for devising strategies in order to grow in future time
period. This consists of four various strategies which are as follows:
Market Penetration- This is the strategy which can help Marriott Hotel to achieve
growth by selling existing products in existing market. It is less risky strategy which can help
respective organisation to leverage capabilities and resources. The main aim is to increase market
share of existing products through use of sales promotion, advertising, pricing strategies. It can
helps to improve situation of business by expanding in same market with same products. For
example, Marriott Hotel can sell their existing product such as food, parking areas, clean room,
Wi-Fi in hotel in existing market. If they can provide it in effective manner then they can grow in
market.
Market Development- This is defined as strategy where Marriott Hotel can grow by
selling existing product in new market (Ansoff Matrix, 2018). It is good strategy which can be
adopted by respective organisation in order to gain competitive advantage in new market. This
can be possible if they search new geographical market and distribution channels. It is risky
strategy because of targeting new market. With help of such strategy it can make improvement
by coming into new market where there is no services of respective organisation for increasing
profits. For example, Marriott Hotel can come up in new market with same products for
increasing market share and profits. While choosing new market they need to focus on their
consumers who are going to use various services.
Product Development- This is strategy where Marriott Hotel can grow their business
with new products in existing market (Goins and Pye, 2013). The respective organisation can
grow if it can focus on particular requirement of their targeted consumers. It requires new

competencies and developing modified products in existing market with some differentiation
from competitors. It is risky which requires research and development and insight into needs of
consumers. For example, Marriott Hotel can introduce new products such as recreation for
children which can really work to attract families to avail facilities and services. There are many
times when family make their trip with small kids which creates problems for parents to visit
along with them in such case respective hotel can provide recreation facility for kids and have
person to look after them in same existing market. Therefore, this can help them to increase
market share and fulfilling their target consumers’ requirements.
Diversification- It is strategy which can be adopted by Marriott Hotel where they can
grow their share and profit by introducing new product in new market. It is more risky strategy
because of new product in new market where marketer may have no or little experience. It is
highly rewarding strategy if it get success in competitive market. For example, Marriott Hotel
should have clear idea about what product they are going to offer and in which market then they
can make best strategy and plan to make it success and profitable in competitive market. They
should offer new and innovative products which can make them different from competitors.
After analysing various growth strategies, it can be concluded that Marriott Hotel need to
adopt market penetration strategy. As it does not require more cost because it deals in existing
market with same products. As user and consumers are already know and aware of products and
services offered by them.
M1 Analyse how objectives of organisation meet ‘SMART’ criteria of organisational objectives
It is essential for Marriott Hotel to set SMART objectives which should be based on
specific measurable attainable realistic and time (Hardy, Deane and Gray, 2012). This can help
business to achieve their set goal in effective and efficient manner. The SMART objective fixed
by Marriott Hotel is to decline energy usage from business operation by 25% and reducing waste
and water. It can be accomplished by giving training and development programmes to their
working force for reduction of water. In order to reduce waste, Marriott Hotel should give
training session regarding impact of pollution to our environment, society and health. For
achievement of SMART criteria, organisation should perform work through step format in
proper manner. Therefore, it should be made in SMART way for their business so that result can
be known.

D1 Analyse how elements of Ansoff’s Matrix have contributed to improvements to organisation
There are four elements of Ansoff's Matrix which assist in improvement to Marriott Hotel
(Hyppönen, Hämäläinen and Reponen, 2015). In market penetration, respective hotel can supply
existing product in existing market in effective manner for fulfilling their need and demand. For
product development, they can add various new goods for fulfilling requirements of their
consumers in existing market. For increment of market share and profits, Marriott can enter into
new market with same products through market development strategy. Similarly, in case of
diversification strategy they can enter into new market with new goods for their consumers. For
this strategy, they require proper research and development to sustain in market. Therefore, in
this way all elements of Ansoff's matrix help to contribute in improvement of decision making of
Marriott Hotel in effective and efficient manner.
