Growth Accelerator Program

 

Commercializing and industrializing solutions

 

The consortium Growth Accelerator Program (GAP) has been tailored to boost organic growth and accelerate the transformation towards a more solution oriented business model. The program is built around four modules, focusing on key issues for solution business.

 

GAP is based on the view that solution business can only be achieved as a crossfunctional initiative. Participants of GAP are expected to be key resources for identifying and developing solution business initiatives, e.g. managers from R&D, Marketing, Sales and Operations/Delivery.

 

During the program participants will identify and develop new management practices and capabilities needed in a solution business oriented organization. These will throughout the program be applied to the company realities through an intensive, company-specific Growth Lab project.

 

Each company participates in the Growth Accelerator Assessment, which creates insight for benchmarking exercises during the program. The companies also form a steering group that provides input to program design and development.
