Increasingly, the competitive advantage of businesses is determined by their connections: alliances in supply, distribution, research, production, subcontracting and even regulation and philanthropy. Klass Strategies is developing services in the area of strategic alliances between commercial firms, especially those selling primarily to nonprofit and government customers. We can identify and explore relationships that leverage profit beyond that generated by a client's internal resources alone. Current services include:

• Strategic partner identification and analysis
• Facilitation of strategic marketing relationships
• Development of vendor alliance organizations
