Value Chain Analysis
PRIMARY ACTIVITIES:
Inbound Logistics --> Operations --> Outbound Logistics --> Marketing & Sales --> Service
SUPPORT ACTIVITIES:
- Firm Infrastructure (management, planning, finance)
- Human Resource Management (recruiting, training, retention)
- Technology Development (R&D, process improvement)
- Procurement (sourcing, vendor management)
ANALYSIS APPROACH:
1. Map each activity in the chain
2. Identify cost drivers per activity
3. Identify value drivers per activity
4. Compare to competitors
5. Find optimization opportunities
Structured Approach Methodology
The CASE Method
STEP 1: CLARIFY (1-2 minutes)
- Restate the problem in your own words
- Ask clarifying questions
- Confirm the objective
- Identify any constraints
Questions to ask:
"Just to make sure I understand, the client is..."
"When you say profitability, do you mean operating profit or net profit?"
"Is there a specific timeframe we're looking at?"
"Are there any options that are off the table?"
STEP 2: STRUCTURE (2-3 minutes)
- Lay out your framework
- Explain your approach
- Be MECE (Mutually Exclusive, Collectively Exhaustive)
- Prioritize branches
"I'd like to break this problem into three areas..."
"Let me start with what I think is the highest-impact area..."
STEP 3: ANALYZE (15-20 minutes)
- Work through each branch
- Ask for data at each step
- Do math carefully and out loud
- Test hypotheses
- Pivot if a branch is unproductive
"Based on this data, it seems like... Let me test that by looking at..."
STEP 4: SYNTHESIZE (1-2 minutes)
- State your recommendation clearly
- Support with 2-3 key reasons
- Acknowledge risks
- Suggest next steps
"Based on my analysis, I recommend X because of three reasons..."
MECE Principle
MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE:
- No overlap between categories
- Each item belongs to exactly one bucket
- Bad: "Online sales" and "Sales to millennials" (overlap)
- Good: "Online sales" and "In-store sales" (no overlap)
COLLECTIVELY EXHAUSTIVE:
- All possibilities are covered
- Nothing falls through the cracks
- Bad: "Domestic" and "European" (misses Asia, etc.)
- Good: "Domestic" and "International"
MECE STRUCTURES:
- Internal vs External
- Revenue vs Costs
- Short-term vs Long-term
- Qualitative vs Quantitative
- Supply vs Demand
- Organic vs Inorganic growth
Market Sizing Techniques
Top-Down Approach
EXAMPLE: Estimate annual revenue of coffee shops in Chicago
Total US population: 330M
Chicago metro population: 9.5M (2.9% of US)
US coffee shop market: $48B annual
Chicago share (population-weighted): $48B x 2.9% = ~$1.4B
Adjustment factors:
- Higher urbanization (more coffee shops per capita): +15%
- Cold weather (more hot beverage consumption): +10%
Adjusted estimate: $1.4B x 1.25 = ~$1.75B
Bottom-Up Approach
EXAMPLE: Same question, bottom-up
Number of coffee shops in Chicago: ~3,000 (estimate)
Average transactions per day: 200
Average ticket size: $5.50
Operating days per year: 360
Revenue per shop: 200 x $5.50 x 360 = $396,000
Total market: 3,000 x $396,000 = ~$1.2B
Sanity check: Within range of top-down estimate (~$1.2B vs ~$1.75B)
Analogy-Based Approach
EXAMPLE: Estimate number of gas stations in the US
Known: ~280M registered vehicles in the US
Assume: Average vehicle fills up once per week
Weekly fill-ups nationwide: 280M
Average station serves: ~200 fill-ups per day = 1,400/week
Stations needed: 280M / 1,400 = ~200,000
Actual: ~150,000 (reasonable - some stations are larger)
Mental Math Tips
ESSENTIAL CALCULATIONS:
Percentages:
10% of X = X / 10
5% of X = X / 20
15% = 10% + 5%
33% = roughly X / 3
25% = X / 4
Growth:
Rule of 72: Years to double = 72 / growth rate
10% growth for 7 years ≈ doubles
Large numbers:
Million = 10^6
Billion = 10^9 (1,000 millions)
Trillion = 10^12 (1,000 billions)
Quick multiplication:
X x 1.1 = X + 10% of X
X x 0.9 = X - 10% of X
Break complex multiplication: 47 x 8 = 50x8 - 3x8 = 400-24 = 376
COMMON BENCHMARKS:
US population: ~330M
US households: ~130M
Global population: ~8B
US GDP: ~$28T
Average US household income: ~$75K
US life expectancy: ~78 years
Communication Frameworks
Hypothesis-Driven Approach
STRUCTURE:
1. Form an initial hypothesis based on available information
2. Lay out what data you would need to test it
3. Ask for that data
4. Confirm or reject hypothesis
5. Refine and test next hypothesis
EXAMPLE:
"Based on the fact that revenues are flat but profits are down,
my initial hypothesis is that costs have increased.
To test this, I'd like to look at the cost breakdown
over the last 3 years. Could you share that data?"
Pyramid Principle (Top-Down Communication)

EXAMPLE SYNTHESIS:
"I recommend the client enter the Indian market through a joint venture
for three reasons:
First, the market is growing at 12% annually with limited competition.
Second, regulatory requirements make a local partner essential.
Third, the estimated ROI of 25% over 5 years exceeds the client's hurdle rate."
Practice Case Templates
Profitability Case Template
SETUP:
Your client is [Company], a [industry] company with [revenue].
Over the past [timeframe], profits have declined by [X%].
The CEO has asked you to identify the cause and recommend a path forward.
KEY DATA TO REVEAL (when asked):
Revenue: [trend - flat/up/down]
Price: [changed/stable]
Volume: [changed/stable]
Fixed costs: [trend]
Variable costs: [trend]
Market growth: [trend]
Competitor actions: [any changes]
EXPECTED ANALYSIS PATH:
1. Revenue vs Cost decomposition
2. Drill into the changing driver
3. Identify root cause
4. Quantify impact
5. Recommend solution with expected impact
SAMPLE SOLUTION:
Root cause: [e.g., raw material cost increase of 15%]
Impact: [$XM annually]
Recommendation: [e.g., renegotiate supplier contracts + pass 5% to customers]
Expected recovery: [80% of lost profit within 12 months]
Market Entry Case Template
SETUP:
Your client is [Company], a [industry] leader in [home market].
They are considering entering [target market].
Should they enter, and if so, how?
FRAMEWORK:
1. Market attractiveness (size, growth, profitability)
2. Competitive landscape (players, barriers, differentiation)
3. Client capabilities (fit, gaps, investment needed)
4. Entry mode (organic, JV, acquisition)
5. Financial analysis (investment, timeline, ROI)
6. Risks and mitigation
ENTRY MODE COMPARISON:
| Mode | Speed | Risk | Control | Investment |
|------|-------|------|---------|------------|
| Organic (greenfield) | Slow | Medium | Full | Medium |
| Joint Venture | Medium | Medium | Shared | Medium |
| Acquisition | Fast | High | Full | High |
| Licensing/Franchise | Fast | Low | Low | Low |
| Partnership | Medium | Low | Low | Low |
Feedback Rubric
| Dimension | Poor (1-2) | Adequate (3-4) | Excellent (5) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Structure | No framework, jumps between topics | Uses framework but rigid/formulaic | Custom structure, MECE, prioritized |
| Analysis | Surface-level, misses key drivers | Identifies main issues, some depth | Deep root-cause analysis, quantified impact |
| Math | Errors, slow, not transparent | Correct but slow, some shortcuts | Fast, accurate, clear narration |
| Communication | Rambling, no synthesis | Organized but could be crisper | Concise, top-down, hypothesis-driven |
| Creativity | Only textbook answers | Some original thinking | Novel insights, "outside the box" solutions |
| Business Judgment | Unrealisti |
