consulting-frameworks

Original：🇺🇸 English
Translated

Core consulting thinking frameworks and methodologies for structuring business problems, communicating findings, analyzing strategy, building financial models, and designing operations. Use when any agent or command needs to apply MECE decomposition, pyramid principle, hypothesis-driven analysis, issue trees, SCR communication, Porter's Five Forces, TAM/SAM/SOM market sizing, value chain analysis, NPV/IRR decision criteria, build/buy/partner evaluation, RACI matrices, or any standard consulting framework. This skill provides procedural guidance — not just framework names, but how to apply them correctly.

Cross-Framework Patterns

Most consulting deliverables combine multiple frameworks:
  • Market sizing = TAM/SAM/SOM (strategy) + MECE segmentation (structuring) + Pyramid Principle (communication)
  • Due diligence = Porter's Five Forces (strategy) + Issue Tree (structuring) + NPV/IRR (financial)
  • Business case = Build/Buy/Partner (financial) + RACI (operational) + SCR (communication)
  • Transformation roadmap = Operating Model (operational) + 3 Horizons (strategy) + Hypothesis-Driven (structuring)
