Global businesses are operating in increasingly competitive environments. As a result, it is necessary to ensure continuous operational and financial improvements to realise long lasting success. We typically start our engagements by identifying our clients’ quick-wins, and prioritising next steps. Together with stakeholders and management, the team develops a roadmap for operational and/or financial improvements. Most importantly, we actively participate in the execution of the optimisation process, by deploying our subject matter experts and our distinctive change management approach.

We deliver hands-on programme management, combined with subject matter experts in the case of an integration or separation. We offer a specific skillset which is needed for either the successful integration of businesses after an acquisition, or the carve-out to enable a divestment. With our proven Program Management Office (“PMO”) solution and supportive tooling, we are able to ensure a smooth integration or separation for our clients.

New technologies are enabling businesses to be more data-driven than ever before. As a result, they have to adapt quickly and adopt a more agile business approach. These changing business models have a major impact on how the business has to be managed.

We are able to assist our clients during the transformation, deploying our technology knowledge and change management skills to make these strategies work effectively. Our view is that it’s not about executing a single project, but instead about changing the business fundamentally, creating a culture of iteration and experimentation.

We believe that the continuous optimisation of business and operating models is key to ensuring sustainable revenue growth and margin improvement. It requires a thorough research of the strategy, structure, processes and people agenda within the organisation. This leads to an analysis of the interactions and discrepancies between the various elements. Together with our clients, we identify the areas for improvement and work on preparing and executing the plans, helping to build strong, agile organisations that are able to accelerate their growth.
