Bowman's Competitive Strategy The 'Strategy Clock' is based upon the work of Cliff Bowman ( See The Essence of Competitive Strategy, by David Faulkner, Cliff Bowman). It is another way to analyze a company's competitive position in comparison to the offerings of competitors. Refer to Adding value to service offerings: ( Bowman and Faulkner) Bowman considers competitive
advantage in relation to cost advantage or differentiation advantage. There a
six core strategic options:

added value by user, yielding market share benefits b.

added value sufficient to bear price premium 5.

margins if competitors do not value follow/risk of losing market share. 7.
Increased price/low values - only feasible in a monopoly situation 8.
Low value/standard price -
