Macro environment issues

For creating and attaining the strategic goals of the plans the Visitor economy ministerial advisory committee should consider the macro environmental issues that are prevailing in the state of Victoria. 

Politicalchanges

Political factors affect a lot in the context of the tourism planning.According to the government agencies Victoria is not considered as the attractive one in context of tourismas a lot of government regulations are there in context of the high exchange rate, that will be seen as the problematic issue for tourist, who want to study or visit Victoria.(To summarize the Marco environmental issues affecting Australian Tourism,2018).But the political environment is seen as the stable one in the context of a skilled, well-educated and multilingual workforce that will provide a competitive base for the tourism industry.

Economic changes

The state is having a strong economic position with the abundant and diverse resources that attract the high level of investments in term of natural resources and earn a huge amount from the exports. But due to the financial crisis, the economy is fluctuating a bit as the exports are affected due to the financial and economic crisis.

Social factors

Higher education is seen as the lucrative concept in terms of attracting more tourism in the state of Victoria by becoming more productive and competitive. Along with the increase in the aging population, the aging tourists are seen as the potential target customers in market segmentation.In addition to that, the tourism industry has to develop more infrastructures for meeting the needs of the disability market. 

Technological factors

New technologies will create new products and processes, by reducing costs, improve quality and lead to innovation(Infrastructurevictoria.com.au, 2018). These developments will benefit the economy and the customers of the country. In addition to that, the researchers also led to effective funding of government which ultimately increase the infrastructure of the economy.

Environmental factors

Water is seen as the scarce resource in the economy which led to the cause of concern for the tourism industry. A cause of concern is also seen in the increased salinity in the area, which is caused by diverting the water inland from the coast, which led to water tables in eastern Australia.  

The introduction of age discrimination and disability discrimination are the examples of recent laws that affect the actions of organizations, which affect the cost of the business firm and demand.in addition with that the economy provide sanctions in terms of export and import restrictions, by prohibiting technical assistance which leads to problems for overseas partners and buyers.

Key industrial success factor relevant to VVES strategic plan’

according to the strategic plan, the key industrial success factors that will improve the tourism of state includes the Government investment are used for leveraging private sector investment by providing funding in tourism assets, for example through the Shipwreck Coast Master Plan and Phillip Island Nature Parks, will create conditions to encourage private sector investment.in addition to that the target market analysis, in terms of infrastructure and facilities will be used as the area of concern for the old and aging population, by providing them high-quality services. For example, the nursing facility will be provided at the tourist destinations(Deloitte Australia. (2018). The suppliers have to invent more 'green tourism' products and services not only to concern the environment, but also promote more travelers from Asia to enjoy the eco-tourism in the state of Victoria
Porters model for competitive advantage

Supplier power
The Victorian action plan committee needs to create more advanced and healthy tourism for the people who are old and disabled as the state of Victoria is considered as the important tourist destination by creating humanized destinations by providing nursing and caring facilities(Grant, 2018). In addition to that, the authority has to focus on Asian community especially the Chinese for increasing tourism.

Buyer power
From the customer’spoint of view, the trend of increasing aging group which is seen in the economy shows that there is a potential market for the tourism industry in Victoria(Barney, 2014). The growth of disability among old and aging population affect customers at three levels as the state has to create more comfortable infrastructure for promoting tourism.  

Competitive rivalry
Competitors for the tourism market is more in Australiaas the areas of Queensland and Brisbane are more popular among tourists, as these states offer more opportunities and advantages for promoting tourism.

Threat of substitution.
As the Australian tourism industry is the lucrative one due to islands, beaches the youngsters and the aging population both are attracted towards the destination (2018). So to promote tourism by reducing the threat of substitute countries like Mauritius etc., the commission has to focus on the attractiveness of beaches and hotels so that more customers will be attracted.

Threat of new entrants
Profitable and lucrative markets attract new entrants, which led to decrease in profitability(Porter, 2017). Same as is with Victoria, as it is seen as the lucrative market for competitors within Australia and other countries due to entertainment avenues, and events and due to flexible governmental regulations.

Evaluation and discussion of 9 priorities for delivery of goals

More private sector investment will be done on the most important 10 regional tourism projects by building on the potential of regional and rural Victoria byensuring new visitor opportunities across the area of Greater Melbourne. The committee also focus on improved branding and marketing by influencing people choice of travel destinations by examining opportunities in terms of marketing events that will attract the potential tourists by improving experiences for visitors from Asia especially from China in termsof development in transportation,accommodationandChinese food options at the major tourist destinations(Leidecker,2014).The country also has to adopt better tourism infrastructure by implementing the living heritage program which helps in effective coordination.
