Rapid China Strategy Assessment

The objective of a Rapid China Strategy Assessment is to critically examine if a client’s China strategy is optimal given the market opportunity, the competitive environment, and the company’s competitive strengths and objectives.

 A Rapid China Strategy Assessment will allow you to quickly and with minimum disruption to your company’s China operations:
  • Obtain an independent and impartial opinion of your existing China strategy
  • Understand why China performance lags behind projections or competitors performance
  • Identify key areas your company can address to strengthen competitiveness
  • Question key assumptions about your markets and customers

Our Approach

Stenvall Skoeld & Company offers an effective approach to evaluating strategies, which builds upon our Strategic Due Diligence framework.  This is the same framework used by leading private equity firms to evaluate the performance of private companies operating in China.

The emphasis is on obtaining information directly from decision makers along the clients’ value chain. As such, apart from benchmarking the company’s performance, it gives unique insight into what key stakeholders think about the company, including customers, current and potential employees, value chain partners, industry analysts, etc.

All strategy assessments are streamlined to fit the client’s unique circumstances and objectives.

A typical China strategy assessment would begin with evaluating the attractiveness of the market and question the big strategic questions such as growth drivers, customer behavior and future trends. We would then go on to evaluate if the client has a winning value proposition and strategy.

Our experience

Stenvall Skoeld & Company has a strong track record of identifying winning strategies and warning clients about situations that threaten to destroy value and reputations. We have over a decade’s experience of researching companies and markets in China, including due diligence on investments from US$3 million to US$2 billion.
