Business Ecosystem Analysis: What it actually means?
Business ecosystem analysis looks beyond the client’s immediate customers and competitors to map the wider network of platforms, suppliers, regulators, influencers and partners that affect value creation. Consultants identify who controls customer access, who owns critical data, where margins are shifting, and which alliances could accelerate growth. This kind of analysis is especially relevant in digital, mobility, fintech, health and logistics markets, where no single player owns the whole value chain. It helps a company decide whether to build, buy, partner or participate in another platform’s ecosystem. The outcome is a clearer view of where to play, who to align with, and how to avoid being disintermediated.
