Articulate concerns or opportunities about the firm’s strategic fit with its competition, suppliers, and customers.

Evaluate the degree to which the organizational structure and management systems enable the execution of the corporate strategy. Consider the organization of functional capabilities and value chain capabilities of the firm.
