Great operational expertise
Our services are structured in two main directions: business consulting and management (operational) consulting.
Do you have a strategy defined for this year? Did the strategy defined for previous period reached the targeted results? Do you have a long term well defined, quantifiable strategy? Do you control the future or you are just reacting to external changes the best you can?
As business consultants we help you identify your strategy in line with today’s business landscape. Strategy means a lot of things to different people. Usually the highest level of strategy definition raises up to answering the classic questions: “Where to compete” and “How to compete”.
The most recent research in business administration has widen the strategy approach. Successful companies today do use the classic approach, but wisely combined with an approach that realizes a fit between the company (goals and values, resources and capabilities, structure and systems, etc.) and the environment (competitors, suppliers, customers, etc.). This approach is called “Strategy as a fit”, and it offers an adaptation of strategy to particular company personality, especially related to internal resources and capabilities as compared to other companies in the same industry.
This approach follows the latest research in the domain, considering that company resources and capabilities are the primary resources of profitability. Simply put, all companies in the same industry have more or less the same external factors (industry, barriers and so on) – if they all define the best strategy following the classic approach what remains as main success factor is the company resources and capabilities that can make the difference.
Can you say you run the perfect operations? Is your team happy? Have you implemented KPIs at each level of your value chain? What would mean 20% improvement in your operational efficiency?
As operational and management consultants we assist you in improving your operational skills at all levels. We have extracted this specific strategic component because we have a great expertise in the domain. At all levels of your value chain, we will analyze your processes and operations and identify what actions must be done to make sure your productivity and profitability are maximized.
We team up with your CTO, CIO, COO and/or with your middle management, discuss with them, identify critical points and associated actions required for boosting your performance. This includes changing the organizational culture for ensuring, in the end, optimized productivity which leads to increased profitability.
At the end of our analysis period we will provide a detailed action plan showing the precise potential benefits obtained if specific actions are applied.
It is up to you if all, part or none of the actions are implemented, and we can assist also in their implementation until they become part of your company culture.
