Strategic Planning
An antibody technology and product development company appointed a new CEO who immediately launched a Five-Year Strategic Planning initiative to determine the company’s time to profitability and to develop its five-year strategic plan. As part of this initiative, Applied Strategies was asked to work with the executive team and a newly chartered Strategic Planning Group to identify the company’s core competencies, map and analyze the company’s pipeline from target identification stage through late stage development, determine the company’s time to profitability, and develop options for accelerating time to profitability and mitigating risk.

As a result of this effort, the company shifted its focus from technology out-licensing and co-development partnerships to internally focused R&D, reorganized to improve productivity and streamline costs, and chartered an Implementation Planning and Execution Team to manage the formation and progress of over a dozen special initiative teams. Applied Strategies was asked to provide transitional support and guidance to the implementation team.
