We support business units of large corporations in building long-term competitive advantages, renewing growth levers and implementing major operational improvements.

BUSINESS STRATEGY
Accuracy’s approach to strategy is one based on facts and figures. Our expertise lies in data-driven quantitative assessments to support your major strategic and/or investment decisions. Whether at corporate or business level, we help you create value for shareholders and shape your executive agenda: detecting market opportunities, reviewing portfolio strategies, quantifying strategic growth options, validating investments and disposals, building or reviewing business plans, and more. We support private equity firms, banks and corporates on acquisitions, disposals and refinancing in the preparation, implementation and follow-up of their transactions.

MARKETING & SALES
Customer insights come from massive amounts of disparate data. We believe that marketing and sales can strongly benefit from advanced analytics. From customer segmentation to product assortment choices, our teams are dedicated to leveraging on and translating this data into client acquisition, upsell/cross-sell opportunities, loyalty or retention initiatives, and more, thereby improving the effectiveness and efficiency of your sales investments. We can provide you with data-driven strategic plans and concrete tools for marketing and sales, including prediction models, simulators, metrics and processes to measure impacts.

OPERATIONS
Our best-in-class analytical rigour can help transform your processes and build new capabilities in your operations. In the areas of manufacturing, procurement, supply chain, service operations or capital projects, our data-driven approach applied to your processes aims to enhance quality and productivity (for example, in production planning and scheduling or optimising the supply chain), identify cost savings and areas for optimisation (price negotiation and volume-pooling strategies, models and metrics to track results), meet shifting market demand, develop and design new customer services, and maximise return on capex investments.

We help clients to build innovation bridges with start-ups, providing due diligence on innovation potential in acquisitions, identifying disruptive models, and tracking open innovation performance.

INNOVATION
In our fast-changing world, innovation is at the heart of many companies’ strategies, with more and more managerial, strategic and organisational considerations revolving around it. Accuracy can support your innovation decisions and transformation by guiding disruption, building bridges to innovation ecosystems, creating change with smart investments and leveraging on data science thanks to open innovation programmes provided with tangible performance measurement.

Our open innovation programme includes analysing market disruption (e.g. new services, new user experiences, digital transformations and new business models); performing due diligence on emerging business models to challenge business plans, revenue potential and fit with core strategic targets; undertaking strategic assessments of early-stage start-ups to strengthen their core businesses and to help them reach identified strategic goals; reviewing innovative models and their omnichannel variations to shift brands towards digital; and helping corporates to better understand innovation in China and develop business opportunities there.

We provide bespoke tools and technology combined with data science skills to process
and visualise data in order to make informed decisions in a digital environment.

INFORMATION REPORTING
Whether preparing for a disposal or a post-acquisition situation, obtaining clear and relevant information is a fundamental consideration. Not only does it solidify a selling process, making due diligence ‘bullet proof’ and figures available much more quickly, particularly when a deal enters its critical phase, but it is also the foundation for triggering integration and synergies, making it possible to measure them clearly and determine tangible improvements to be realised.

Our consultants will help you select and secure the relevant information across a potentially wide range of fields: finance, operations, HR, market, analytics, etc. Leveraging on our innovative digital capabilities, we will then rapidly convert this initial exploration phase into a rolling process, owned by the finance and operations teams, sharing one set of relevant, homogeneous and controlled figures, simply and rapidly.

We assist our clients in their major transformation plans relating to pricing, industrial footprint, product portfolios, advertising & promotion spend, and reorganisations.

TRANSFORMATION
Although transformation is currently required in many markets and businesses in order to develop, succeeding in such an undertaking is always a challenge.

Despite the variety of situations in which such projects may be applicable, successful plans always rely on the same fundamental elements: clearly defined targets; a quantified ROI that is effectively measurable over the long term; a clear transposition of strategic goals into pragmatic tactical action plans; well-paced and monitored implementation; and robust project management to ensure the coordination, alignment and adhesion of teams throughout the process.

Thanks to our diverse range of expertise, ‘no silo’ organisation and fully integrated worldwide partnership, Accuracy is the ideal partner to design and support your transformation, from the very first strategic orientation to effective implementation, with a reliable quantification of actual impacts at all steps.
