in strategic terms

2. CONTEXT
Catherine Cooremans – IEA Roundtable on Industrial Productivity &Competitiveness Impact of EE – Jan. 27, 2014
3. Context - Investment decision-making
Research finding 1:
• Financial logic not decisive
• Strategic logic more important
in businesses’ investment choices
Research finding 2:
• A huge diversity is observed between
companies’ situations and behaviors
• even within the same industry
Catherine Cooremans – IEA Roundtable on Industrial Productivity &Competitiveness Impact of EE – Jan. 27, 2014
4. Context - Investment decision-making
An analytical tool is needed, capable to:
• Translate any investment project in
strategic terms
• Bridging and unifying strategy and
finance languages
• Apply to any industry or company
Catherine Cooremans – IEA Roundtable on Industrial Productivity &Competitiveness Impact of EE – Jan. 27, 2014
6. Conceptual framework
Definitions:
• An investment is strategic if it contributes
to create, maintain or develop a sustainable
competitive advantage (Cooremans, 2011)
• Competitive advantage is a threedimensional concept, formed of three interrelated constituents: value, costs and risks
(Porter, 1985; Cooremans, 2011)
Catherine Cooremans – IEA Roundtable on Industrial Productivity &Competitiveness Impact of EE – Jan. 27, 2014
7. Conceptual framework
Two theoretical approaches on the sources of
competitive advantage:
• ResourceBased View
(RBV)
approach

8. Conceptual framework
Two theoretical approaches on the sources of
competitive advantage:
• Activities
approach
The value chain analysis
(Porter, 1987)

proposal
10. For many companies, strategic advantage is
based on a “superior value” stemming from
providing unique benefits and not for offering
lower prices.
As emphasized by Michael Porter:
“value, instead of cost, must be used to
assess competitive position since firms often
deliberately raise their cost in order to
command a premium price via differentiation”
(Porter, 1985:38).

12. Conceptual framework
This competitive advantage analytical tool
enables to:
• Take into account not only cost reductions
but also a possible increase in sales (higher
quantity and/or price premium)
• Take into account risk (qualitative analysis)
• Translate the strategic benefits of energyefficiency projects into financial calculations
