AOM4801 ASSIGNMENT PACK 3.
3.1.1 Describe the different types of capacity expansion strategies and recommend a
suitable strategy for Eskom to follow in light of their capacity related problem. Justify
your chosen strategy by means of an analysis of that strategies risks and benefits. (8)

Interpretation.

 Firstly, the student needs to give a definition of the word capacity expansion.

 This can be done through breaking these words in to 2 by firstly defining capacity
with a quoted reference from the prescribed book or any external research sources.

 Capacity expansion can be defined as a static change (increase) in markets
and product lines such that the increased demand can be matched by the
number of units being produced, (Collier & Evans, 2017).

 The above definition looked into what expansion of capacity mean in general.

 Thus students may further explain through differentiating short term and long term
capacity expansion.

 In other words, strategies differ according to objectives and internal capabilities that
organisations can manage.

 In line with the given above case of Eskom facing challenges of increased demand,
the organisation needs 2 strategies namely:

i) Small capacity increase that match demand.

• This is important in the short-run as demand fluctuates especially from
peak and off-peak periods.

• Thus, Eskom needs to have small incremental progress in its
production capacity to match fluctuating demand.

ii) One large capacity increase.
