EKU Power Drives · Commercial Growth Intelligence · 1 July to 30 September 2026 · 1 Baseline
The product is not the problem. The sign on the street is.
What you are seeing. A starred kitchen with no sign on the street. Regulars walk in by name. A hungry buyer who searches for the dish never finds the door.
In the same 90 days the specialists moved; EKU stayed at 4, with nothing built on the site yet
Caterpillar and mtu, separate ruler: on the 120 buyer searches EKU tracks, each ranks in the top ten for about one in twelve (5 Aug 2026).
2 Gap · 3 Built
Rivals reached the site layer with words, websites, video and single cases. A measured mixed-brand site with the cloud link down is still open ground.
The opening is a measurement: response, duration, repeatability and link loss on one real site, confirmed by engineering. Eight weeks. It replaces every exclusivity claim.
What EKU now knows and can use
Each piece has a role that owns it and a moment of use.
4 Implement
Better done on sound facts than perfect and late. Leadership's inputs sharpen the plan as they arrive.
Four doors, four names. The roadmap has four lines of work and four roles. Leadership writes a name on each door; a role does not attend a Monday review.
5 Measure
Six lines of the baseline, three readings each. EKU's count in Google's AI answers stayed at 4 across the three readings. Working Hypothesis: the first published pages are what change the next reading.
| Scoreboard | Baseline | 12 weeks | Mid-2027 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Informational pages indexed | 0 | 14 or more | 30 or more |
| Mentions in the seven-prompt panel | 0 of 7 | 2 of 7 | 4 of 7 |
| Named reference cases published | 0 | 1 | 3 |
Strategic conclusion. The baseline is on record and the publication plan is ready. Commercial implication. Working Hypothesis: the first published pages are what change the next reading. Recommended use. Follow the roadmap and add one column to the numbers table each month.
