Positioning and services[edit]
Estin & Co has an exclusive focus on strategy consulting,[3] as opposed to process re-engineering, IT, field organization or operational cost cutting, etc.[4] Its consultants devote all their time to strategy.[5]
About this positioning, Estin & Co explains that strategy consulting requires total specialization: “Estin & Co specializes in strategy consulting and does not offer any other services in order to avoid dilution of competence. The firm’s strategy is to grow internationally by keeping its focus on this activity at the potential expense of its size.” [6]
