OMEC Trends

The overall OMEC rating had remained quite stable at 65 for three years until this year when it increased by 1 point to a rating of 66. The increase in OMEC implies that the average corporate competitive fitness has improved in 2002.

This upward trend in the competitive fitness of firms is not surprising from a Darwinian perspective, which holds that weak firms must improve and excellent firms must continue to excel. This trend data also reveals that the MECA methodology yields stable results over time and is valid for use as a benchmarking tool.
