As part of a commercial due diligence, PMG recommended a B2B market research project focused on a supplier selection study to qualify potential suppliers and allow the company to provide a more system-based solution in the building products market. The study identified eleven potential suppliers and three supply scenarios that addressed potential risks and changing trends in consumer preference for the client to consider in their strategic decision making process. The company was able to favorably leverage future contract terms and negotiations based on the insight that resulted from the study.

PMG's B2B market research approach entailed reaching out to and connecting with the competitor's highest level executives to gain a deeper understanding of the company's R&D strategy than could be derived from publicly available sources. PMG's analysts, well experienced in contacting senior level managers and engaging them in conversation, were utilized to develop a thorough understanding of the client's major competitor. The competitive intelligence gained from the conversations with key executives proved to be valuable insight into the competitor's value position in the market.

PMG was asked to develop a fast paced product and service innovation process that would be utilized by their newly developed corporate innovation team. PMG developed an Outcome-Driven framework growing the number of opportunities in the new product pipeline approximately 150%, while increasing the potential revenue of the new product pipeline nearly 180%.

PMG's market assessment included specific recommendations on how to compete more effectively against competitors and an approach to realize future growth opportunities. By developing a more detailed and relevant market segmentation for evaluation, selected market segments were evaluated in-depth for short-term and long-term potential. As a result, the market research provided the client solid business insights that have helped the company navigate around potential business disruptions and make better informed decisions about its approach to future business growth.
