Review of the Sector Ecosystem
The sector’s institutional landscape is assessed, including regulatory frameworks, support services, infrastructure availability, and the roles and interactions of key actors within the ecosystem.
Market Structure and Monopoly Assessment
Analysis focuses on the degree of competition, the existence of monopolies or dominant entities, and their influence on innovation, pricing, and market access.
Value Chain Mapping
The complete value chain is mapped, from input to output, to identify where value is created, diminished, or lost. The process highlights inefficiencies, gaps, and opportunities for integration or upgrading.
Competitiveness Analysis
Benchmarking is conducted to evaluate the sector’s performance relative to regional and international peers. The objective is to identify gaps in productivity, efficiency, and market positioning.

Stakeholder Consultations
Consultations involve representatives from regulatory bodies, private sector entities, service providers, and financial institutions to validate findings and enrich understanding of sector dynamics.
Beneficiary Needs Assessment
Input is gathered from individuals and groups directly impacted by sector performance, including workers, entrepreneurs, and communities, to understand their challenges, expectations, and development priorities.
Ecosystem Restructure Update
Based on assessment findings, gaps and inefficiencies in the current sector ecosystem are identified. Recommendations are made to improve governance structures, institutional mandates, service coordination, and resource alignment to enhance system performance.
Sector Competitiveness Benchmark
International benchmarking is performed against comparable countries or high-performing sectors to identify global best practices and adaptable models. The objective is to inform strategic decisions with evidence from successful reform cases.
Sector Development Initiatives
Strategic initiatives are developed to address identified challenges and opportunities across the sector. Each initiative is designed to align with national priorities, address institutional gaps, and improve sector-level outcomes.
Initiatives Assessment and Prioritization
Each proposed initiative is assessed based on technical feasibility, cost-effectiveness, expected impact, and institutional readiness. Sector leadership is engaged in prioritizing interventions that offer the highest return and strategic value.
Sector Development Objectives & KPIs
Strategic objectives are formalized and linked to measurable, time-bound performance indicators. These KPIs serve as the foundation for monitoring progress, ensuring accountability, and adjusting interventions where needed.
Sector Development Plan and Tentative Budget
A comprehensive three-to-five-year development plan is prepared. The plan outlines initiatives, timelines, implementation responsibilities, and a tentative budget, ensuring alignment with institutional capacity and available resources.
Sector Development Program
The strategic plan is operationalized through a structured program that translates long-term goals into annual work plans. Each cycle includes clear deliverables, assigned responsibilities, SMART objectives, and performance metrics to guide implementation and enable continuous tracking of progress.
Business Development Centers
sector competitiveness development
Business Development Centers are established to serve as dedicated platforms for supporting enterprises within specific sectors or regions. These centers function as practical hubs that deliver technical assistance, capacity building, and advisory services aimed at strengthening business competitiveness and resilience.
Each center is designed based on local priorities and business needs. Core services may include business diagnostics, executive coaching, skills training, access to finance, digital transformation support, quality management, and market readiness. When hosted by a government agency, chamber, or development institution, the center becomes a strategic tool for advancing the private sector and driving sustainable economic growth.
