Network Twin

Who is connected to whom — and where are the blind spots?

1 Core Question

1 Core Question

Do we understand the network around our business — or only the individual relationships inside it?

2 The Business Problem

2 The Business Problem

Traditional customer and stakeholder data show entities. They rarely show the network between them.

CRM systems are usually organised around individual accounts, contacts or interactions.


A relationship can be valuable on its own.
Its position in the network can make it far more valuable.

3 What the Twin Does

3 What the Twin Does

It turns relationships into a dynamic network model.


A Network Twin combines information about organisations, people, accounts and their relationships into a connected representation of the business environment.

The model can distinguish different types of relationships and analyse both direct and indirect connections.

4 Demonstrated Capabilities

4 Demonstrated Capabilities

Network structure mapping

Transform individual entities and relationships into a connected network and reveal patterns that are difficult to see in conventional tables or CRM views.

Key connector identification

Identify organisations or individuals whose network position makes them important bridges, access points or potential bottlenecks.

Community and cluster detection

Detect naturally connected groups of organisations or stakeholders and compare them with existing segmentation or account structures.

Coverage and blind-spot analysis

Identify parts of the network that are weakly connected, isolated or accessible only through a small number of relationships.

5 Decisions the Model Can Support

5 Decisions the Model Can Support

  • Which relationships are structurally most important?

  • Where are the major blind spots in our network?

  • Which customers, organisations or individuals connect us to otherwise inaccessible groups?

  • Are we overly dependent on a small number of key relationships?

Twin Interpretation

Possible Action

Possible Action

Many important accounts are reached through one intermediary

Access to part of the network depends heavily on a single relationship

Build alternative connections and reduce dependency

A relevant cluster has few direct relationships with the company

The organisation has a network coverage blind spot

Prioritise outreach to actors inside the underserved cluster

One stakeholder connects several otherwise separate communities

The stakeholder has unusually high bridging importance

Protect and strengthen the relationship

A potential new contact is connected to several priority organisations

One new relationship could substantially improve access

Prioritise the contact based on network impact rather than account value alone
