THE DECISION

Start with the questions that can change the next step

01

Read demand in context

Look beyond a headline visitor number to the segments, seasons and locations that shape practical demand.

02

Compare the market before a concept hardens

Test supply, competition, pipeline and operating context while choices are still open.

03

Identify the questions behind the model

Surface the local assumptions and constraints that need to be addressed before the next stage.

WHAT WE EXAMINE

Demand and seasonality

Visitor segments, seasonal patterns and the regional factors that influence demand.

Supply and competition

Existing supply, competitive positioning, relevant comparable cases and the future development pipeline.

Location and operating context

Access, visitor movement, workforce and living conditions, and the practical relationships between areas.
