Customized Market Analysis (CMA) Program Description

The Customized Market Analysis (CMA) is a market research report

ordered by a U.S. client on a specific product, or product-line that

can be researched as a single product, in a specific country. CMAs are

normally ordered through U.S. Department of Commerce District Offices

but orders may also be taken at overseas Posts where the ``Commercial

Service'' has a presence, and, on rare occasions, the CMA office at

Headquarters in Washington D.C.

CMA reports consist of nine standard parts for a specific product.

The nine parts provide information including sales potential,

competitor information, sales and distribution channels, pricing of

comparable/competitive products, profile of potential buyers, venues

for market exposure, information on quotas, duties, regulations,

potential buyers and/or distributors, and licensing or joint venture

interest by local business entities. CMA reports can be further

customized or expanded for an additional cost which is negotiated prior

to finalizing the request.
