Core Consulting: Solutions

In Brief...

We help you improve your sustainability - discover how well you are doing, and how to reap the benefits. 

More than a trend

The purpose of sustainability is to help businesses balance profits with purpose, to make a positive impact on society

and the planet. It has become a business-critical topic that businesses can no longer afford to ignore. It is an issue of global concern, addressed primarily using the ESG framework, and governed by international standards, laws, and regulations, such as the SDGs, GRIs, CSRD, and many others.

ESG x Luxury

Once upon a time, sustainability was thought to be incompatible and uncomplimentary to luxury – but not anymore. Today, the high standards associated with the luxury sector now extend to expectations about its sustainability performance. We take inspiration from the mission of Walpole, the official sector body for UK luxury, to help UK luxury SMEs become the most sustainable in the world. 

Introducing LUXE-ESG

LUXE-ESG is our dedicated programme specially designed to provide tailored guidance to help luxury SMEs improve their sustainability. It has three standalone, easy to follow modules, and is based on globally-recognised standards, laws, and regulations. It is delivered in partnership with the sustainability experts for SMEs, Eevery.

In Brief...

We help you with the big picture - where you want to be, and how to outperform your competition.

How to win in Strategy 

The goal of strategy is to make optimal choices that make the best use of your resources and capabilities, creating lasting value, and helping you gain a competitive edge. Strategy is an interconnected, process that starts with understanding: your current position and then. selecting from your available choices, to determine how to get to your target destination.

Luxury - A Complex Sector 

The complex and multi-dimensional luxury sector is composed of businesses offering the highest standards in quality, craftsmanship, exclusivity, and distinctiveness—standards that yield significant rewards. Incentivised players, therefore, often pursue intricate competitive strategies, frequently overlooking the cost limitations typically imposed in other sectors. The opportunities within this sector appear limitless..

The 'TEN LEVERS of Luxury' Framework

We have developed the TEN LEVERS of Luxury framework, underpinned by our innovatory AI-powered strategy tool. The model is built on the ten specificities that characterise luxury goods and services, and translate synchronously into 'levers' that define and strengthen competitive advantage. This lays the foundation for an objective assessment and scoring system to identify strengths and weaknesses. It also highlights areas for improvement to help businesses work towards a tangible and sustainable competitive advantage.

Operations

In Brief...

We help you with your processes - how to utilise your resources more efficiently for greater outputs and profitability.

Reset and Reconfigure

In today’s highly competitive environment, successful businesses across every industry proactively seek to deliver their products and services in a way that will outperform others. In the luxury sector, this translates to a heightened demand for excellence in quality, innovation, artistry, and craftsmanship; in an increasingly complex and disruptive business climate.

A Great Awakening

Many segments of the luxury sector previously resisted change and modernisation; often in a determined effort to preserve heritage, craftsmanship and exclusivity., as well as to avert commoditisation. In recent years, however, there has been a noticeable shift, with incumbents awakening to an approach that embraces modernity in certain areas, while still honouring the fundamental aspects of their tradition and legacy. This presents new possibilities for competitive advantage and immense potential for sustainable value.
