    Placing scarce capacity where it creates the most value

    A polymer chemistry leader had a capacity-constrained technology for paper mills that could cannibalize its existing sales.

    The challenge

    What the client faced

    A capacity-constrained paper-industry technology could cannibalize existing product and service sales.

    Our approach

    What we did

    Precise targeting, positioning and value pricing to place limited capacity where it created the most value.

    1. 1Quantified yield, effluent, fiber and downtime benefits by mill type.
    2. 2Targeted the segments with the highest value.
    3. 3Set positioning and price to protect the existing business.
    4. 4Planned capacity allocation by segment.
