PRICE Hypothesis Generation is a 15-slide PPT PowerPoint presentation template (PPT) available for immediate download upon purchase.
Forming a coherent hypothesis is an instrumental tool when analyzing and addressing any business problem. It is a common approach used by management consultants. When evaluating any new, abstract business problem, it is wise to begin by forming an hypothesis related to the problem.
A popular consulting framework for forming a hypothesis is PRICE. PRICE is used by strategy consulting firms like McKinsey, Bain, and BCG. It can be used to test a hypothesis, determine if the hypothesis is valid, and answer questions, like, Does the hypothesis make sense? Should it be discarded? Should it be reworded?
This document explains the PRICE framework and provides template slides to be used in your own presentations.
The PRICE Hypothesis Generation Framework document is an essential resource for executives seeking to sharpen their problem-solving skills. It provides a structured approach to hypothesis formulation, ensuring that all critical aspects of a business problem are considered. This framework helps in framing the problem accurately, bringing out the right questions, and drawing out the right discussions, making it a valuable tool for strategic decision-making.
The document includes a comprehensive overview of the PRICE framework, breaking down each component—Problems, Restrictions, Individuals, Criteria, and Environment. Each section is designed to guide you through the process of hypothesis generation, ensuring that no stone is left unturned. The framework's methodical approach ensures that your hypotheses are robust, actionable, and aligned with your business objectives.
Included in the document are template slides that can be directly used in your presentations. These templates are designed to be easily customizable, allowing you to tailor them to your specific needs. By using these templates, you can streamline your hypothesis generation process, making it more efficient and effective.

The PRICE framework dissects a hypothesis into 5 components: Problems, Environment, Criteria, Restrictions, and Individual. Identifying Problems involves pinpointing 1-3 high-level questions to guide analysis, such as leveraging channel advantages against competitors. The Environment provides context for understanding the client or industry situation, framing the problem accurately. Success Criteria must be specific and measurable, allowing for evolution over time. Restrictions outline scope and hurdles, maintaining focus on the original problem; for instance, ensuring product return on capital employed (ROCE) exceeds a specific percentage. The Individual component addresses decision-makers, highlighting the need for tailored communication based on varying detail requirements. The PRICE framework facilitates clearer strategic discussions and decision-making.
This PPT slide template outlines a structured approach to formulating hypotheses through 3 critical questions. The first question, "What is creating the phenomenon?" identifies underlying causes contributing to the observed situation. The second question, "What is the observable phenomenon?" defines specific metrics or indicators for objective analysis. The third question, "What is the outcome of the phenomenon?" assesses implications and relevance. This structured inquiry aids in hypothesis generation and facilitates deeper analysis and strategic decision-making. The flow of logic among the questions is indicated by arrows, suggesting that each builds upon the previous one, guiding users in articulating relationships between causes, observable phenomena, and outcomes.
