Assess Your Intangible Value Drivers

Discovery tells you what you have. Assessment tells you how strong it is. The Assess step evaluates each of your Opagio 12 intangible value drivers, benchmarks them against sector peers, and identifies where targeted investment will create the most impact.

What happens in the Assess step

Assessment transforms a list of assets into a scored, ranked portfolio. Each of the Opagio 12 intangible value drivers receives a structured evaluation across multiple dimensions.

You are not scoring in isolation — each driver is measured against comparable companies in your sector and stage, so you can see exactly where you lead and where you lag.

This step also produces the radar chart that becomes a core visual throughout the rest of the Method: a single view showing the shape of your intangible asset portfolio across all 12 dimensions.

Twelve drivers that determine your intangible strength

Human Capital

Workforce skills, training investment, retention rates, and organizational knowledge that cannot walk out the door.

Intellectual Property

Patents, trade secrets, proprietary algorithms, and protected methodologies that create defensible competitive advantage.

Brand & Reputation

Brand equity, market positioning, customer trust, and the price premium your name commands.

Customer Relationships

Customer lifetime value, contract backlog, retention metrics, and the depth of your customer base.

Data Assets

Proprietary datasets, data infrastructure, analytics capabilities, and the competitive intelligence you have accumulated.

Process Knowledge

Operational processes, quality systems, documented workflows, and institutional knowledge embedded in your organization.

Plus six more: Innovation Capital, Supplier Relationships, Organizational Culture, Digital Infrastructure, Regulatory Assets, and Strategic Positioning. Explore all 12 in the Academy.
