Bus/Financial - Management / Stragetic consultancy/marketing
German term or phrase: Ausrichtung Positionierung
This is taken from a presentation by a top-tier strategic management consultancy which is advising a German bank.

One of the key aspects of the project is to examine positioning, as well as the product range, pricing...etc.

My question is - what would be the best translation of 'Ausrichtung' here.

Determining positioning
Setting positioning...?

The double 'ing' sounds awkward but it reflects a similar problem in the source and having worked with such consultants, this is probably OK stylistically.
