Our Value Add

We aim to be flexible in meeting individual client needs, are agile, possess extremely sharp presentation skills and have a depth of industry knowledge, experience and access to a wealth of information through an extensive database of contacts. Our expertise lies in in-depth market intelligence, un-biased, grounds-up research, strategy and financial analysis and modeling. Above all our clients have always commended us on the comprehensive nature and the structure and format of our final reports.

JAJ has developed specific expertise in the following key areas:

Real Estate Advisory: much of our recent work has been in producing strategic advisory reports and feasibility studies for the real estate sector. As such we have gained significant experience in this sector and hope to continue to grow and further enhance our skill-set in this area.

Competitor Landscape Analysis: competitor profiling analysis is fundamental to many of the projects that we undertake. As such, it has become a necessary core competency of our practice – a critical starting point in developing detailed insights on any industry and its key players.

Primary Research: we rely very heavily on grounds-up, current and authenticated primary research for our market studies. We leverage on our database of contacts to identify sector-relevant specialists with whom to conduct one-on-one detailed interviews which are aimed at developing strategic insights on the sector or industry under study.

Feasibility Studies:

We tailor-make the approach and methodology of each study to suit specific project requirements, however typically the scope of work for a feasibility study assignment involves:

 Assessing the market demand and supply
 Identifying gaps and potential opportunities
 Developing a value-proposition
 Providing recommendations on market entry and positioning strategies
 Profiling the competitive landscape
 Constructing project financial models.

Market and Industry Research:

Conducting effective market research is the core element of most of our studies. We undertake extensive primary and secondary market and business research leveraging on our wide network contact base in the region. We have carried out multiple forms of market research and market scoping exercises including – one-on-one interview with industry specialists, focus groups, survey and questionnaire based studies.

Sector Due-diligence:

We rely heavily on primary market research to gain in-depth industry knowledge and developing strategic insights into the sectors under study. We aim to identify a broad cross-section of industry experts, market specialist and professionals from the relevant sector and conduct one-on-one informative interviews. Our sector due-diligence studies will aim to provide grounds-up intelligence on the market size of the sector, its historical and projected growth rate, socio-economic drivers affecting the sector, and its key players.

Financial Modeling:

The final qualifying piece of a feasibility study is the evaluation of the project’s financial viability. We will develop a full-scale financial model based on certain pre-agreed criteria and assumptions driven from market research to provide a set of project financial statements - revenues, operating costs, profitability and capital expenditures. This analysis is aimed at providing the client with a quantitative and accurate view of the overall financial robustness of the project.
