Jungjingong "Supporting Achievement of Management Goals through Challenge Diagnosis"

For High Carbon Emission Companies, Green Sector Companies, and Digital Transformation Companies

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Cheol-hyun] The Small and Medium Business Corporation (Chairman Kim Hak-do, hereinafter referred to as SBC) announced on the 29th that it has newly introduced and is operating a challenge diagnosis program that assigns management goals to small and medium-sized ventures and helps them achieve these goals.

SBC introduced the challenge diagnosis to foster innovative companies leading the low-carbon and digital economy. The challenge diagnosis provides expert intensive consulting and links customized projects for small and medium-sized ventures in the green and digital sectors.

The challenge diagnosis involves experts in technology and management conducting on-site surveys of participating companies to comprehensively diagnose external management environments and internal capabilities. Then, a challenge mission is set, and in-depth consulting is provided to achieve the goals. After the challenge diagnosis, SBC supports policy projects such as policy funds, export marketing, and training tailored to the company’s situation to help generate results.

SBC explained that the challenge diagnosis differs from existing diagnosis programs. First, the support target is specialized. Unlike the existing corporate diagnosis available to any small and medium-sized venture, high-carbon emission companies, green sector companies, and digital transformation companies can participate. Also, a challenge mission is set. Goals are established through consultation between the company and diagnosis experts with the purpose of decarbonization or digital transformation. Then, achievement levels are checked through performance management, and follow-up management is conducted.

Chairman Kim Hak-do said, "This year, SBC restructured the diagnosis support system by adding challenge diagnosis and non-face-to-face diagnosis to the corporate diagnosis programs, which previously consisted only of standard diagnosis and comprehensive diagnosis," adding, "Through the challenge diagnosis, we will support the realization of the government’s 2050 carbon neutrality promotion strategy and the foundation for fostering innovative companies in the low-carbon and digital sectors."
