Predictive Modeling
One of the most powerful planning tools in our organization is Predictive Modeling, and the tool is often incorporated into both our Consulting Services and our Acquisition/Investment activities.

The Predictive Modeling process was developed by a team of scientists, engineers, and marketers led by Peter Lytle of the Business Development Group. The team, which was established by a major corporation, studied, turnarounds, corporate repositioning opportunity and quality mapping systems and strategic planning methods. These systems were researched and taught by the California Institute of Technology, Stanford Research Institute, MIT, Arthur D. Little, Also evaluated and tested were specialized tools used by a number of international and regional companies which were able to survive major crises in their own industries and came back to lead their markets.

The goal of the team was to identify improved planning, survival, and decision-making systems. The team took these maps, processes and methods, blended and expanded upon them, then tested them to create a highly effective, new generation of intelligent strategic planning.

Today Predictive Modeling has been used by hundreds of firms and has been taught by the BDG to some of the countries top consulting and business organizations

Why Companies Use Predictive Modeling:
  • Markets are mature and are consolidating
  • There are fewer value-added products that can be economically developed
  • Leverage assets
  • Margin erosion has occurred in the core products or services
  • Get a better focus on competition
  • A merger, downsizing, or divestiture has occurred
  • To find a more precise direction to grow
