Summary example for a typical study: Over the years, the ABC Co. has limited its potential growth through under investment, limited strategic thrusts and a narrow definition Of itself compared to SAIC, CSC, and other high growth companies in government contracting. Historically, ABC has failed to recognize The importance of accumulating core competencies in selected technologies to maintain a leadership position. This legacy today undermines ABC ’ s ability to compete and grow.
