One ambition. Three routes to evaluate.

01 / Build

Develop the capability.

What can we create with our existing people, technology and customer relationships?

  • Internal strengths and gaps
  • Time to market
  • Investment and execution needs
02 / Partner

Extend your reach.

Where could another business help us enter a market or deliver a broader solution?

  • Partner ecosystem
  • Commercial and operating fit
  • Control and dependencies
03 / Acquire

Own the advantage.

Which capabilities, customers or market positions would make sense to bring in-house?

  • Acquisition themes
  • Ideal target profiles
  • Integration and value creation

The strategy becomes a working brief

Give the team
a direction to pursue.

Move from broad ambition to specific priorities. Keep the strategic rationale connected as your team starts researching companies.

Define where you can win

Combine your competitive position, customer needs and market research into a focused view of the opportunity.

Make the acquisition thesis specific

Translate capability gaps into target criteria: what the business must do, the customers it should serve, and the value it could add.

Build a sequence of moves

Consider dependencies, resources and integration capacity. Develop a roadmap your team can revisit as the market and pipeline evolve.
