Analyze the underlying competitive trends that have affected the SBU.

Identify any radical shifts that have occurred within the industry in the last five years and explain how those shifts affected the SBU.

Identify key company resources and explain how they are deployed within the SBU.

Assess how well the SBU aligns with the corporate generic strategy.
