Market opportunities can be seized, followed or developed. Companies often consider whether the opportunity can meet their strategic growth objectives, if the company has the capabilities and assets to deliver against the opportunity and if the opportunity is synergistic with their business model.
Market Entry Strategy is a nuanced discipline in international business. Complex dynamics impact market entry success. Customer, competitive dynamics, cultural, regulatory, talented staff, supply chain and many other complex factors can heavily impact market entry. Variables such as strategy, mode of entry, logistics, preconceived assumptions and implementation can have significant impact in a new venture’s responsiveness, agility and competitiveness.

We work with clients to develop and implement incisive strategy that leverages our client’s competitive strengths and advantages. Our consultants provide depth of insight as well as a robust platform for implementing Market Entry Strategy.
In growth strategy development, our philosophy is to develop a flexible strategy that is sustainable and difficult for competitors to replicate.

We help our clients optimise their supply chain, from the manufacturing and warehouse footprint, to SKUs and inventory levels, to logistics operations.
Agree on the key goals of supply chain optimisation, whether that be increased forecasting accuracy to prevent production outages, a reduction in working capital tied up in inventory, improved reliability of supply, or something completely unique to our client’s situation.
Collect detailed data for modelling on locations, inventory, and associated costs, e.g. penalties on stock-outs.
Build a detailed flow model for inbound and outbound primary and secondary supply chains using a supply chain simulation tool, from which we can form prioritised savings hypotheses.
Scenario test the network for different hypotheses, structuring an implementation plan with both “quick wins” and longer-term improvements.
Review the supply chain management operating system to identify gaps and prioritise the work required to address these. We often work with clients to develop a regular review system to check performance and keep the organisation aligned with key objectives.
Provide ‘on-the-job’ coaching on supply chain management best practices to client team members while making sure the right processes for efficient operation are in place. Our extensive experience in operations means we can bring a highly practical approach to improving your supply chain design and operation.
