It is to make this goal achievable that AI has used the services of MTI Consulting to identify and plan its long and medium-term growth objectives and strategies.At the kick-off session, Analytical Instruments Chairman Jayasundara said, “AI is at a juncture where it needs to assume complete ground zero in order to critically review the current business strategies and reformulate them in line to the goals set for the next 10 years.

In the process there are several challenges that need to be addressed such as the development of a business and governance structure, succession plan and identification of additional revenue streams. And this has been the rationale behind using an independent experienced consultant such MTI so that an outside in perspective can be taken when addressing each of the above.”

This strategic planning exercise which is based on MTI’s 8S Strategizing Model, was presented by MTIC CEO Hilmy Cader to the senior management of Analytical Instruments during the kickoff session. MTI’s 8S Model is a robust framework that has been used in over 25 countries, across diverse industries.
This framework starts with identifying the scope of the business, scanning the operating environment, setting the sights for the business and formulating strategies that extends to systems, structure, social responsibility and staff.
