IT & Strategic Consulting

Strategy

Are your competitors talking about you in their boardrooms? Does your strategy guide how you allocate resources? Can every employee articulate your strategy and are they empowered to execute on it? At DIREC, we see strategy as much more than a plan. Since Delhi Infotech and Research Centre founding, strategy has been our core business. We work with companies in every industry to develop strategies that deliver results.

Since its inception, superior capabilities have helped multiple clients in every industry develop and deliver winning strategies.

  • We see things that others miss, offering you more creative solutions that combine our deep geographic experience, intimate sector knowledge and clear insights into how to create value in your business.
  • We work collaboratively, build lasting capabilities into your team and help your organization mobilize for change.
  • We define our success by your results. We care deeply about our clients. We enjoy our work―and we have fun doing it.

DIREC’s strategy experts help clients with their most complex strategic challenges. We build tailored solutions to help clients achieve sustained growth and emphasize mobilization from day one. We begin by helping clients choose where to focus so they can out execute and out invest their competitors―and ultimately generate higher returns./p>

The Strategy practice is anchored by Delhi Infotech and Research Centre 5 Beliefs on Strategy:

  • There are few bad businesses, but many bad strategies. Outperformance depends more on market leadership and redefinition than on market selection.
  • Leadership starts with a competitive advantage. Invest to "spike" only on a few critical capabilities. Trying to be good at everything makes it hard to be great at anything.
  • Focus matters. Continuously reinforce the core, expand in adjacencies with a repeatable model, and prepare for long-term transformation.
  • The ability to learn and adapt at speed. Learning is a source of advantage in its own right, especially during times of uncertainty.
  • You can't win on the outside if you are losing on the inside. Insurgency, frontline obsession and an owner mindset fuel growth.
