Case Study: 
Using OGSM Process
(Objectives/Goals/Strategies/Measures) to Define an Improved Strategic Planning Process
The client had experienced sustained, strong growth based on it's continually enlarging and improving product portfolio.  With its robust outlook the company identified the need for a better strategic planning process to manage its growing business and corporate size.   CCC defined the new strategic planning process that has led to a well-defined strategy that has optimized management of business opportunities and improved cultural alignment.  Click here to learn more...
Case Study: 
Due Diligence of an Acquisition
The client required in-depth assessments to feel comfortable about acquisition economics. The overall goal was to give the client enough raw material and consumer market information - in a compressed time period - to make a successful and financially sound proposal to the target acquisition company. As the CCC consultants had operated in the merger/acquisition arena personally in the target consumer categories, this was "right down CCC's alley".  Click here to learn more...
