RPP — Resources, Processes, and Priorities — is the lens BRI Associates uses for Company Fit: whether an organization actually has the resources, the processes, and the priorities required to execute a particular new-business or innovation strategy. An RPP mismatch — for example, pursuing a disruptive strategy inside an organization whose resources, processes, and priorities are tuned for core-business performance — is one of the most common reasons a sound-looking strategy fails in execution. Company Fit asks not 'is this a good idea?' but 'is this a good idea for this organization to pursue, given how it actually works?'
RPP is the diagnostic behind the Implementation Approach dimension of BRI's Strategy Framework, and it operates at two levels: project-level Company Fit for an individual strategy hypothesis, and portfolio-level RPP mismatch at the governance layer. Its resolution patterns draw on organizational ambidexterity and structures such as the FIT Team, and it is operationalized in Growth Forge® Software as the Company Fit Risks tool.
For the full treatment — the RPP archetypes, the mismatch-resolution framework, and how Company Fit travels to external ventures and acquisitions — see the RPP pillar at /supporting/rpp. Related Terminology Index entry: PIVA (Platform Strategy), which dovetails with RPP.
