The 8 things worth looking at
Strongest evidence first
- 01What could connectThe two don't match
You built something valuable. Only one team uses it.
Industrial Technology built software that predicts when machines are about to break. Today it runs on one product line. Two other teams have almost the same problem — and they pay three outside vendors to solve it.
Take a look→3 teams · 41% of revenue- Why it could matter
- You may already own what you are paying for. And it may be a product, not just an internal tool.
- Why we noticed
- 7 documents · 3 teams · 3 separate signals
We're confident about this - 02What you already haveOnly the people know this
People keep asking for something you don't sell them.
Advanced Materials owns a set of coating patents used in one industry. Over two years, 11 companies from four other industries asked to license them. None of those industries appear in any plan.
Take a look→1 team · 4 nearby industries- Why it could matter
- You could earn from something you already own, without entering new markets yourself.
- Why we noticed
- 4 documents · 3 teams · 3 separate signals
Worth a closer look - 03What doesn't quite add upThe two don't match
Your strategy says one thing. Your money says another.
Services are named as your number one growth priority. But the share of money going into services has fallen in each of the last two budget rounds, and services hiring is below the company average.
Take a look→Whole company- Why it could matter
- Either the plan isn't funded, or the plan changed without anyone saying so.
- Why we noticed
- 4 documents · 3 teams · 3 separate signals
We're confident about this - 04What's getting in the wayBoth say the same thing
Three teams are building nearly the same thing.
Digital Infrastructure is building one place for company data. Two other teams are separately buying or building their own version, with their own budgets.
Take a look→3 teams- Why it could matter
- The saved money is the small part. The bigger part: one shared data base is what makes company-wide ideas like PS-014 possible at all.
- Why we noticed
- 4 documents · 3 teams · 3 separate signals
We're confident about this - 05What you could use betterOnly the documents show this
You already have people in the markets another team can't reach.
Energy Systems has trained engineers in 29 markets, used almost only for repairs and warranty work. Enterprise Services says it can't reach customers in 14 of those same markets.
Take a look→2 teams · 29 markets- Why it could matter
- People you already pay for could reach customers you currently can't.
- Why we noticed
- 3 documents · 2 teams · 3 separate signals
Worth a closer look - 06What could connectThe two don't match
Nine big customers buy from you four different ways.
Nine of your twenty largest customers buy from four or more teams. No one in the company manages those relationships as one.
Take a look→4 teams · 9 customers- Why it could matter
- You may matter far more to these customers than either side realises.
- Why we noticed
- 3 documents · 4 teams · 3 separate signals
We're confident about this - 07What this could becomeOnly the people know this
A new rule is coming. You already have all three pieces.
Nordic research points to new emissions reporting rules for vehicle fleets. You already have the sensors, the field engineers and the materials know-how needed to serve that. They sit in three different teams.
Take a look→4 teams · 1 new market- Why it could matter
- A market forming around a rule you're unusually ready for — without buying anything new.
- Why we noticed
- 4 documents · 4 teams · 3 separate signals
Early signal - 08What doesn't quite add upThe two don't match
Two teams disagree about the same region.
Mobility calls the Nordic region a priority to grow into. Energy Systems calls the same region unattractive and is pulling back.
Take a look→2 teams · 1 region- Why it could matter
- One team may know something the other doesn't. The disagreement itself is the find.
- Why we noticed
- 3 documents · 2 teams · 3 separate signals
Worth a closer look
