Benchmarking Digital Services to Drive Portfolio Growth

Problem Statement

ChemicalCo, a leading water treatment and specialty chemicals producer, sought to strengthen its digital services portfolio for the Pulp & Paper segment. While offering competitive solutions, it lacked a structured benchmark of competitor capabilities, partner ecosystems, and market positioning.

Fragmented intelligence on digital offerings and partnership opportunities limited ChemicalCo’s ability to identify portfolio gaps, prioritise high-value collaborations, and accelerate service innovation.

Without a clear view of the competitive and partnership landscape, ChemicalCo risked slower portfolio growth, weaker differentiation, and missed opportunities to expand in priority markets.

Key Objectives

  • Benchmark competitor and partner digital services to identify portfolio strengths, gaps, and differentiation levers

  • Map technology and service provider archetypes to uncover high-impact partnership opportunities

  • Define and prioritise new service categories to accelerate portfolio growth and market penetration
