The Directional Policy Matrix (DPM) helps companies to develop a business case by bringing together three important decision factors: the size of the opportunity; the attractiveness of the opportunity (this could be measured in terms of growth prospects or potential profitability); and, the company’s ability to service (usually measured in terms of competitive advantage and/or market accessibility).
An informed decision can then be made on the opportunity itself: the business case is either proved or rejected based on robust insights.
The company may choose to double down based on a strong business case, leverage a “cash cow” opportunity, build credibility, or withdraw/disinvest from what would have been risky or unprofitable ground.
