Abstract

The purpose of this paper is helping businesses to answer the questions of “where are we?” in a practical and beneficial way. Internal status analysis begins with a short history of the business and lays down the policies followed and performances demonstrated by the business during recent years within the framework of its mission, and assesses its conformity to overall goals, target groups and general strategies, etc. This requires a comprehensive internal comparison analysis.

The purpose is to identify the potential of the business by taking into consideration its existing and past performances and problems. In short, this paper helps businesses to identify and evaluate their strategic internal factors by offering them totally a new practical and effective analysis technique
