The client created an in-house steering group to oversee the development of the Vision and procured Coretex Consortium from a seven-year term consultancy framework. The client wanted a combination of:
- A clear understanding of the current situation;
- Scenario options (for 2030) and strategies/ decisions that could drive towards any of the scenarios;
- Success criteria for each / all scenarios – that would create an optimum solution for the client whatever events may unfold in the future;
- Good practice research in a wide range of areas (see Scope);
It was important for the client team to feel that they understood the scenarios and decision tree that would help them make optimal decisions across the business units. The initiative therefore acted as an education, thinking, planning and decision-making methodology to help the client create clear decision roadmaps and an optimised view of an ideal future.
