Abstract:
This article highlights the applicability and effectiveness of two well
established strategic management tools, value chain and stakeholder
analyses, in the context of seven public sector strategic consultancy
projects. The article provides a strong justification for the use of
both models, when used independently, but particularly in conjunction,
as powerful strategic analytical frameworks that can significantly
encourage and illuminate strategic discourses in public sector
organizations. The article establishes that strategic tools such as
value chain analysis, when applied in the public sector context, require
significant adaptation to maximize their contribution to understanding a
given situation. This study proposes that the strategic analysis of
relationships that build or contribute to concepts of organizational
value are of limited importance if the complex web of interdependent
relationships themselves are not clearly demonstrated. This work
therefore makes a clear case for applying two strategic models, value
chain analysis and stakeholder analysis, in an analogous way to
demonstrate how strategic understanding in the public sector is enhanced
as a result of such symbiosis
