Why is competitive advantage important to organizations?

What will be an ideal response?


The competitive advantage of an organization is its set of distinctive capabilities that give it a cost advantage or a
differentiation advantage over the competition. Companies leverage their competitive advantage to succeed
against other competitors in the market. For example, Hilton claims that its proprietary check-in computer system
gives it a competitive advantage. The system improves guest recognition during check-in and provides more
enhanced levels of service through real-time computer access to guest preferences.
