The Bottom Line on Trust | Accenture Strategy Competitive Agility Index 2018accenture
In the not-too-distant past, trust was considered a “soft” corporate issue. Its connection to a company’s value, tenuous. Not anymore. New Accenture Strategy research quantifies the impact of trust on your company’s competitiveness. And bottom line. Trust is anything but soft.
To be competitive in today’s environment, companies need to execute a balanced strategy that prioritizes trust at the same level as growth and profitability. Those who do benefit from greater resiliency from trust incidents, making them more competitive. Those who don’t are putting billions in future revenue at risk.
Accenture Strategy found that more than half (54%) of the 7.030 companies we scored on our Competitive Agility Index experienced a material drop in trust, a key measure of competitiveness. Conservatively, those companies lost out on US$180 billion in potential revenues.
What if your company could quantify the potential negative impact of a trust incident on key measures of competitiveness: growth and profitability? Accenture Strategy can show you how.
Building More Value with Capital Markets - EPC Editionaccenture
1) Capital projects generate more value when companies share and analyze data effectively, but most struggle to do so.
2) A framework called "CAPSTONE" provides best practices for driving digital transformation and improving value from data, including appointing data-focused leadership, investing in data infrastructure, developing data-centric talent, and using incentive-based contracts.
3) Companies that implement CAPSTONE fully see up to 5.8% higher operating margins through more efficient project execution and data-driven decision making.

Information Rich, Knowledge Poor: Overcoming Insurers’ Data ConundrumDeloitte United States
The ability to effectively harvest and harness data across the enterprise is quickly emerging as a competitive differentiator in the financial services industry. In the insurance sector specifically, a number of pioneers are already making healthy strides toward mastering information management, but for most companies that have not yet fully invested in this transformation, growing market mania around "Big Data" and looming regulatory changes that demand increased data transparency continue to generate considerable anxiety.
While many insurers have already spent and continue to spend heavily on core-system and technology modernization, most still find their efforts have fallen short of expectations and needs when it comes to information management. If data is expected to be realized as a strategic asset, insurers can no longer continue to merely tweak existing systems and business models to clear this data management hurdle.
However, operationalizing information management enterprise-wide is neither an easy nor short-term exercise, as demonstrated by programs already under way at companies that have pioneered the effort. But for many, the potential benefits to be derived from successfully organizing, governing, consuming and analyzing available data assets — both internal and external — are likely well worth the investment.
Still, to achieve holistic data fluency, optimize data exploitation and realize a positive ROI, insurers will need to dismantle numerous roadblocks embedded in their current infrastructure, hardware and software, corporate culture, and business models.
Information rich, knowledge poor explores challenges and potential solutions to mastering information management and realizing data as a strategic asset.
Digital Transformation of Procurement In 4 Basic StepsJon Hansen
The response to a Procurement Insights poll asking the question; “What is the most significant risk that procurement faces in 2020?” was telling in that the number one risk was not cyber-attacks, job security or supplier performance.
More than 40 percent of those who responded said that “digital strategy implementation” was the greatest risk procurement faces in 2020.
In this Knowledge Note, I will provide a breakdown of what is known as the Progressive Implementation Methodology. Based on four key elements or building blocks, this methodology will overcome the slow digital adoption and unfavorable outcomes associated with traditional consulting methodologies.
Accenture's six-country survey among 180 C-level health executives says adoption of AI is measured, but real.
The survey assessed beliefs about market maturity, practical and clinical challenges to the adoption of AI in healthcare.
Enthusiasm for AI (artificial intelligence) is high among health executives, with people skills the most important implementation success factor.
Sufficient staff training/ expertise is rated the most important success factors for AI implementation (ranked in top three by 73 percent of execs).

The document discusses challenges facing large power and utility infrastructure projects, including regularly going over budget and falling behind schedule. It identifies the top three challenges as: 1) attracting sufficient financing given projects' increasing scale and complexity, 2) delivering projects on time and on budget given average cost overruns of 35% and delays of two years, and 3) achieving return on investment through effective asset management. The document focuses on improving project financing and delivery, with asset management to be covered in a later report. A survey found industry leaders believe these challenges will persist due to disruptive trends, with serious economic and security of supply consequences if infrastructure development fails.

How to Challenge Assumptions and Surface Hidden Advantages Using a Cross-Func...IntelCollab.com
Securing a sustainable competitive advantage is typically the stated aim of most organizations, yet why is it so difficult to achieve?
For many firms, enjoying an intermittent period of competitive advantage would be heaven; sustainable is out of the question. The most unique source of competitive advantage nearly always comes from within. It is almost a “Zen moment” when your leadership realizes just how much valuable insight resides within the various elements of the firm if only you could find a way of integrating it. Unique information, tailored to your competitive landscape and appropriate to your business model is lying undiscovered. So how do you find this valuable insight? This presentation outlines how a firm can organize its efforts around a cross-functional insight team and presents a case illustration of one organization which has successfully derived both intangible and tangible results from so doing.

American consumers are starting to feel better about the economy and growing supply of domestic energy resources, but they remain committed to reducing their electricity consumption, according to the Deloitte Resources 2015 Study. The survey of more than 1,500 household decision makers finds consumers have largely focused on basic tactics to cut their energy use and are not following through on their intentions to invest in more capital-intensive measures such as rooftop solar panels or smart energy apps. Nonetheless, their interest in more advanced energy management tactics persists, creating opportunities for electricity providers who can make the right offer.

Editor's Notes
A little on how I came to work with Aurora… Utility sector ripe for help with competitive intelligence as business models and monopoly utility status is evolving.
Utility employees comfortable with their regulated monopoly status
Competition from solar, other DG, wind, energy storage and all of those with challenges or benefits of low natural gas prices
Sales are not increasing, utilities used to plan for a steady 3-4% annual sales increase and a predictable investment program.
Prices have not risen much in the last decade, but investment was also down and now new investment and price increases are likely. Even the modest price increase that occurred has been hard for utilities to sell to regulators
What is strategic intelligence for a large, vertically integrated company?
An electric and gas utility is made up of at least six businesses that could stand alone and often do
No consistent answer which meant everything or nothing was strategic info particularly for an electric and gas utility composed of what could be six standalone businesses
Set up an inbox for employees to share their insights and info… too broad!
Favorable reaction when the functions purpose was discussed, but fear that it was more work
Needed to narrow the scope
List began with +46 beliefs about the business
List shared and discussed with company leaders at the Director and VP level; comments and reactions refined the list
Still too broad…
Connected the list to the companies four growth/change focus areas
Settled on ~4 assumptions in each area for Executive discussion
Utilities often not that good at understanding their customers, they didn’t really have to “win” them in the first place, so focusing on that is useful
Not an effort to satisfy executive intellectual curiosity
NRG- Their news headlines highlight distributed generation, but their assets are mainly central station older fossil plants
Sonnen- Their battery technology is going head to head with Tesla, their plan include challenging the regulatory construct
SunEdison- Recently declared bankruptcy, but rapid expansion in solar put them in the solar development drivers seat
Technology evaluation is important, and growing for US utilities through investment funds and demonstration projects, but competitive success will require more than
