User's Challenge

「I want to create synergies between group companies.」

I am a member of the Corporate Planning Department at a holding company with approximately 5,000 employees. Our challenge is optimizing group management; although we have over 10 subsidiaries, each operates independently, and no synergies are being generated. I want to promote cross-functional collaboration.

Selected Approach

Group Value Chain Synergy Analysis

Strategy

Visualize the value chain of each group company to identify cost reductions through standardization and revenue synergies through mutual complementarity.

Ideal for structurally identifying which functions (sales, logistics, development, etc.) should collaborate within a diversified group of 10 or more companies.
