Design the differentiation
At its core, the strategy creates sustainable corporate value through competitive advantages.
Information Factory provides comprehensive support to the management when it comes to strategy, from ambition to implementation and equity story.
The ambition
We challenge the current ambition:
Who are we and where are we today? Where is the industry heading? Where do we want to be in five and three years – absolutely and relative to competitors?
And what advantages do we define?
Thrusts
Together, we design powerful strategic thrusts:
The development of the business portfolio follows a convincing logic and increases the added value of the group – above the value of its businesses.
Expanding and focussing markets, clients, products and channels strengthen advantageous positions and ensure the growth ambition.
An intelligent business model and an effective organisation form the foundation for operational differentiation.
Operational and technical excellence aim at cost leadership, price flexibility and profitability advantages.
Holistic innovation management is institutionalized.
Sustainability is defined strategically and it is operationalised as a success factor.
Value programs
The strategy is based on clear value programs with measurable objectives.
We grow in segments where returns exceed cost of capital and divest non-core businesses.
Our programs target income, cost, margins and sustainability. They are underpinned by an effective allocation of financial and human resources.
Strategy execution
The strategy is not only perfectly crafted, its execution roadmap is anchored in the company.
The value programs are operationalized and controlled, managers and employees are responsibly involved, and instruments are integrated into processes.
Equity story
Planned performance exceeds external expectations. The ratio of reinvestment and payout is optimised.
The strategy promises substantial value creation. It is communicated as part of an attractive equity story.
