AIPL implements MTI-enabled strategising

Analytical Instruments (Pvt) Ltd (AIPL), a company dealing in modern products for the laboratory sector, recently concluded a strategic planning exercise with MTI.

The project launched in July last year consisted of a series of clinical workshops and consulting sessions which led to the mapping of the long-term strategic direction of AIPL.

The strategic plan was enabled by applying MTI's 8SR Strategising Model, which took the systematic approach of identifying the scope, scan and sights of AIPL.

"We acquired the expertise of MTI to develop our strategic direction for the next 10 years as the time was apt to stretch our horizons. MTI spent a considerable amount of time in consulting workshops and one-on-one sessions with the senior management and the directors," said Managing Director, Analytical Instruments, Mrs. Renuka Jayasundara.

"The strat-plan was not developed in isolation but through the involvement of all stakeholders working together to identify, debate and agree on the next step to achieve AIPL's strategic vision," he said.

MTI's Bahrain-based CEO Hilmy Cader who took the lead on this project, said, "Given AIPL's impressive growth over the years, it was at an ideal time that they decided to undertake this exercise.

Most organisations wait till the cracks appear on the wall but AIPL riding on successive years of top line and bottom line growth demonstrates the hunger to continually improve and set sights for the future by going through this process."

"The enthusiasm was evident through our interactions with AIPL's senior management and directors. As a result, AIPL has ensured that their momentum is sustained for the next five to 10 years by identifying a implementable strategic plan," he said.

Analytical Instruments which was set up in 1989, has grown exponentially over the years to become a key marketeer and service provider of the latest products to diverse markets in the laboratories of medical, analytical and agriculture sectors in Sri Lanka. Today, its portfolio includes quality branded products such as medical diagnostic products and reagents, high technology analytical equipment and instrumentation, animal husbandry products, general laboratory products, consumables and chemicals.
