Global Forces Program (GFP) is driven by the demands of Strategy Analytics’ leading customers who want to know the essential early warning indicators of strategic threats and opportunities in adjacent sectors across the mobile information and communications technology industry (m-ICT). Users of GFP comment: ‘This is deep and structured thinking, very clearly expressed.’

Strategy Analytics’ Global Forces Program is designed to address critical strategic issues facing executives in the m-ICT industry. Led by a team of senior industry executives, the program is designed to provide timely, in-depth assessments of companies that are considered disruptive participants in a rapidly evolving and high stakes arena. Global Forces uses a specially developed set of unique metrics under its Control Growth Analysis (CGA) structure and provisions its findings using an innovative and specially designed digital publishing platform, ensuring that clients receive results in a timely manner.

The Global Forces approach provides clients with a holistic, thoroughly analyzed assessment that is maintained as a “living” document. Global Forces rapidly responds with further analytics and commentary, providing clients with an up-to-date compendium of analysis supporting critical internal competitive and market intelligence -- specifically designed for senior executives needing insight for pre-emptive action. Updates to these assessments are provided as market conditions demand, so no more waiting for static reports which are often outdated soon after publication.

Global Forces incorporates a process that filters dozens of companies using leading indicators to identify how disruptive a company is -- or could be. Global Forces then focuses on a short list of companies and dissects them using a deep dive analytic framework, ultimately providing clients with essential insights that serve as early warning indicators. Developed to be prescriptive in design, Global Forces provides clients with key recommendations on how to take advantage of potentially vulnerable areas of both existing and emerging competitors.

Used as either a complement to existing internal strategic competitive and market intelligence via a syndicated offering, or as an independent, objective source of executive insights provided in a custom client engagement, Global Forces should be a priority investment for companies wishing to attain or retain a leadership position in the m-ICT industry.
