Strategic Planning

Strategic planning is the process by which a company defines its vision and identifies the steps to ensure that its goals and objectives are accomplished. BCC ADVISERS' principals have been involved with strategic plan development not only as consultants, but also as active participants in industrial settings where they were previously employed.

At BCC ADVISERS the strategic planning process involves the development of appropriate perspectives through critical review and challenge to accepted organizational methodologies. In addition, business managers are assisted in framing situational responses to identified threats and opportunities within the overall mission determined by the planning group.

With a BCC consultant facilitating the planning process, our client not only has access to the full range of financial advisory expertise employed at BCC ADVISERS, but can be assured that the strategic planning process will become incorporated into the client's ongoing planning process and business operation.

Key steps to the strategic planning process include:

• Development of a vision for the business
• Understanding the company's past (identification of historical strategies)
• Situational analysis (both internal and external)
• Capabilities assessment (core competencies)
• Competitive and environmental Assumptions
• Strategic evaluation and alternatives
• Goals, objectives and action plans
• Funding considerations
• Implementation and scheduling
