Strategy Analysis:
DWS´ core strategy is to focus on being a leader in the provision of end-to-end IT solutions to its client base. It develops long-term relationships with its clients which helps with client retention and generation of repeat business. It targets a range of clients in a variety of industries to diversify the spread of clients and enable significant and ongoing risk mitigation from both industry specific downturns and client ascendancy. These strategies are critical to the company´s organic growth capabilities. The company´s four year 'Improve, Extend, Grow´ strategy revolves around building its brand, improving employee value and extending its service lines into four new specialist practice areas. The extension of its service lines will assist in building deeper relationships with existing clients as well as attract new clients. Growth is expected to be achieved by both organic means and bolt-on acquisitions. The growth strategy is aggressive but relatively low risk, given it involves the utilisation of existing skills and resources to expand into new areas.
