To succeed in a market, organizations need to objectively analyze the underlying forces, attractiveness, and success factors. Industry Analysis helps in understanding a company's position relative to competition in the industry.
Oftentimes, an organization may seek outsiders' assistance, perspective, and assessments to investigate these factors and engage external contractors for their opinion and recommendations. External management consultants, in such scenarios, begin the assessment by carrying out a detailed Industry Analysis.
Industry Analysis helps the consultants in identifying the potential opportunities, threats, and the present and future scenarios of the industry for their clients. They use this tool to help their clients with valuable insights needed to acquire, maintain, and better their position in the market.
This presentation deliberates on a structured approach to perform Industry Analysis. It also discusses the following topics:
• The traditional approach to Industry Analysis
• The most common mistakes that consultants need to avoid
• A case example
• Standard deliverables
• Key takeaways
The slide deck also includes some slide templates for you to use in your own business presentations.
This presentation provides a comprehensive guide to conducting Industry Analysis within a typical 6-phase strategy consulting project. The analysis is positioned in phase 5, where consultants synthesize and recommend strategies based on logic and decision trees. It emphasizes the importance of defining and structuring the problem before diving into the analysis, ensuring a methodical approach that aligns with industry standards.
The PPT also highlights common pitfalls to avoid, such as relying on outdated reports or failing to interpret data correctly. It includes examples of both incorrect and correct approaches to Industry Analysis, offering practical insights and templates for consultants to use in their engagements. This resource is designed to equip consultants with the tools and knowledge needed to deliver high-quality, insightful industry assessments for their clients.
This PPT slide outlines a structured methodology for conducting an Industry Analysis, emphasizing key components for comprehensive insights. It begins with defining specific objectives and identifying central questions through trend analysis, aligning the analysis with strategic goals in Corporate Strategy & Transformation. The slide highlights the need to assess the impact of trends on demand and supply, revealing factors that influence market dynamics. Constructing a coherent narrative around these trends is essential for translating complex data into actionable insights. Finalizing the storyboard ensures clarity and professionalism in presenting findings, enhancing credibility and effective communication with stakeholders.

This PPT slide outlines a structured approach to industry analysis, focusing on desktop research and stakeholder interviews. It highlights 2 primary components: desktop analysis and internal/external interviews, which together provide a comprehensive understanding of the evolving market landscape. Key drivers are identified as critical forces shaping industry dynamics, influencing how players adapt their strategies. Emerging issues present challenges for stakeholders, making it essential to anticipate obstacles and formulate strategies. Client approval for external interviews is emphasized to ensure alignment and transparency in the analysis process. This framework combines qualitative insights from interviews with quantitative data from desktop research for effective industry analysis.
Essential lessons for effective industry analysis include the necessity for deep engagement and commitment. Avoid over-reliance on past credentials from prestigious consulting firms; fresh insights and rigorous analysis are vital. Maintain high standards and reject mediocrity in work quality. Ethical considerations are crucial; repackaging others' reports undermines analysis integrity. A structured, methodical approach is essential for reliable results. Innovative ideas and unconventional opinions can significantly influence strategic decisions, highlighting the value of original thought. Presenting insightful and logical findings to clients is as important as the analysis itself. An original, well-planned, and thorough industry analysis is irreplaceable.
This PPT slide critiques ineffective industry analysis practices, highlighting issues such as relying on past credentials, Googling reports, and plagiarizing content, which compromise analysis integrity and risk presenting outdated information. Summarizing Google reports can lead to irrelevant conclusions, emphasizing the need for proper interpretation and effective communication through storyboards. A common misconception among contractors is that analysis lacks significance, resulting in poor quality and damaging the consulting firm's reputation and client trust. Ultimately, industry analysis is essential for strategic visioning, requiring high standards to maintain consultant credibility and avoid pitfalls in analysis efforts.
