4. • If the investment in key account management is
to be made (and it is not insignificant), a number
of elements must be in place.
• Key among them is that those salespersons who
manage and participate in the key sales teams
must be thoroughly grounded in the regimen and
process of strategic selling.
• If they are not, the exercise of KAM will produce
marginal results at best and be wasteful of
corporate resources because KAM is "graduate
level" strategic selling.

• Establishing a full understanding of the customer - This
includes size, success, vision of the future, corporate
personality, culture and needs.
• Developing a detailed knowledge base, fab by fab, throughout
the world - The team must collect information on the installed
base of the supplier's products and that of key competitors to
understand the supplier's competitive position.
• Developing a broad strategic plan- Building a significant
position within a customer takes time, tenacity, and
consistency in movement toward objectives.

11. • With the strategic foundation in place, the action plan evolves through a
series of carefully planned steps:
• Understanding the customer's organizational structure - Gaining
commitment from a customer begins with the identification of true
decision makers and influencers. This is an ongoing and dynamic process
because customer personnel assignments change, new information is
garnered, new relationships are created and the decision track is subtly
modified. As contact increases, a major requirement is to analyze personal
characteristics of key players. Their personality makeup creates unique
decision making dynamics.
• Determining the power structure - As key customer personnel profiles
evolve, potential influence relationships can be defined. From these, a
power chart, rather than an organizational chart, is created, which
delineates the "real" flow of decision making.
• Developing, assigning and monitoring tactical plans - This allows the team
to develop individual tactics for that customer.

12. • It is at this point that many otherwise effective plans
die. If results are not monitored, targets set and the
entire process reiterated, it will not succeed.
• Sometimes these programs are even driven from
outside the company at the outset in order to establish
momentum free from corporate politics.
• Successful key account management demands supplier
management commitment, resources, and time. It is a
process, not an event!
• For the equipment industry, the rewards for success
are large, and the penalties for failure long lasting - and
possibly fatal.
