Business advisory provides business enterprises the role of a catalyst to undertake a more incisive understanding of their businesses and an analysis of a wide range of business operations, processes, use of technologies as well as the ability to evolve and use fast, integrated and customized solutions for effective decision making, grasping and anticipating emerging trends, leading to result-oriented performance.
Significant changes in business, operations, processes and activities cannot usually be achieved with conspicuous success unless management efforts are supplemented by the right level of professional skill, expertise and experience. Likewise, enterprises facing the same kind of problems and challenges may not be able to resolve with off-the-shelf prescriptions unless issue identification and remedial solutions emerge from a rigorous professional approach sensitive to each client’s market and competitive situation by working in concert with client, which ultimately determines how well the client would be able to create economic value through creative solutions.
The goal of value addition thus entails hard-hitting strategic financial planning and management, proper positioning of individual product lines and services, analysis of operations and working practices, review of organizational structure, determination of operational performance and efficiency benchmarks, key performance indicators (KPI) benefit optimization through use of proper technology solutions, well contemplated management of supply of goods and services, realistic control and management of cost through innovative procurement by responsible inventory management and effective distribution logistics, growing market share, seriously targeted marketing activities, meaningful knowledge of customer base, timely competitor analysis, sharply-focused pricing structure, service oriented customer relationship, fully motivated management and work force, properly structured organization, strategic marketing plans, regular customer surveys and a host of such goals of business integration and excellence.

Clients intending to set up a new business or expanding an existing one need sound and realistic feasibility studies to assess the viability of the project. Generally a comprehensive feasibility study comprises a technical feasibility, market feasibility and a financial feasibility, the depth of the study depending on the scope determined by a client.
Technical feasibility is carried out in consultant with industry experts and specialists, wherever required. Technical study may be all-encompassing or selective and may include options for technical design of the plant, its best location, the vendor(s) most suitable for the projects and such other factors.
Market feasibility focuses on factors which may include current market trend indicated by demand and supply, future growth potential, price sensitivity and a whole range of related issues.
Assignments culminate in a comprehensive report accompanied by detailed financial projections and analysis and recommendations.

Translating a corporate mission statement into reality requires a blue print of strategic steps and milestones envision able in the future. Since strategic planning seeks to strike an optimum utilization of available resources and that too looking into the future, it may rightly be called a visionary’s job description. Acumen, intuition, scientific knowledge and data combine to form a business strategy plan. And what more, the plan needs periodic reviewing. The more aware corporate leaders often seek external assistance and advisory services at the formulation as well as review stages.

Identifying the correct product-market combinations is the key to entrepreneurial success. This objective constitutes the core of market research and in the periphery of research lays market information that is required for sustaining these combinations. Customer perception, issues in the distribution chain, market penetration and segmentation, position of one’s product or service with respect to competitors’ are variables that are dynamic and impact marketers within short periods. Periodic feedback on these variables, therefore, minimizes decision-error and provides strong empirical and intuitive insight for strategic decision making. A range of market research activities is offered that call for in-depth research and critical interpretive analysis – “thinking on behalf of the client” – to enable the client to make major decisions in resource allocation.
