Cross-Framework Patterns
Most consulting deliverables combine multiple frameworks:
- Market sizing = TAM/SAM/SOM (strategy) + MECE segmentation (structuring) + Pyramid Principle (communication)
- Due diligence = Porter's Five Forces (strategy) + Issue Tree (structuring) + NPV/IRR (financial)
- Business case = Build/Buy/Partner (financial) + RACI (operational) + SCR (communication)
- Transformation roadmap = Operating Model (operational) + 3 Horizons (strategy) + Hypothesis-Driven (structuring)
