Industriel organisation er et studieområde, der undersøger forskellene mellem den "perfekte" konkurrence blandt virksomheder, der findes i økonomibøger og den "ufuldkomne" konkurrence, der findes i den virkelige verden. Et værktøj, der stammer fra feltet, er Michael Porters "fem kræfter" -analyse, lige fra begyndelsen af sin seminalbog, Competitive Strategy. Porter udviklede analysen af fem kræfter som en mere stringent variation af den meget brugte SWOT-analyse. Rammen fokuserer på niveauet for konkurrence inden for en industri for at vurdere virksomhedens strategiske position. I modsætning til SWOT-analysen undersøger de fem kræfter erhvervsmiljøet i stedet for at undersøge et bestemt firma selv. Sammen med PEST-analysen graver den dybere ind i mulighederne og truslerne i SWOT.
