Strengths

3
  1. Their biggest strength is their long-standing credibility in the market, which can help them build a better brand. They also have ample experience in this domain. This gives them a competitive edge over others in terms of both sourcing clients as well as satisfying their needs.

  2. They have been giving adequate importance to adopting technology. They recognise the utility of the Internet of Things (IoT) as well as data analytics in the future of the facility management industry.

  3. They have been lately working with a more varied group of clients, albeit at a low scale, thus opening up their prospects in multiple industries.

Risks

3
  1. Their revenues are concentrated on a handful of clients, especially L&T. The revenue is also concentrated service-wise to manpower services, taking up over 85% of its revenue regularly. Moreover, around 70% of its income comes from the top 6 states where it operates in India.

  2. The industry that they are in is highly fragmented and has very low barriers to entry. Therefore their revenue and their key employees can be poached by other new or old competitors. Reduced quality of employees may affect performance. Their own clients may leave them without cause or much penalty.

  3. Manpower services as an industry is well-regulated. This exposes the company to claims and legal tussles with multiple recruits over disagreements.
