Operations Strategy Development & Review

Articulating business strategy is a great first step, and many companies do this annually. The second step, often overlooked, is to develop the Operational Strategy for your team to meet those goals. Armed with your goals, Operational Strategy works with your team to develop implementation plans and identify strengths, gaps, opportunities, and threats to your organization’s ability to meet those goals. Getting caught up in one silo, and missing the operational perspective of evaluation from every angle happens quite more often. Internally, it is also difficult to call out concerns when one is unsure how raising those issues will be received by the entire organization.

That is where we come in, we help develop your playbook from there. Who is doing which initiatives, When, How, Where, and What does “done” look like? What risks may derail the plan; how to mitigate? What support is needed? How will the team work together? We think holistically so you can achieve results.

Operational Due Diligence

The most common types of due diligence deal with legal and financial aspects of a business. Question you should ask yourself are: How do you verify the companies’ claims about operational excellence? How do you value your operational assets?

When we carry out for your organisation, we focus on understanding the efficiency and effectiveness of the business and is complementary to other aspects of due diligence i.e legal and financial.

This is how we help as an investor or during a merger and acquisition but also just to make sure that

At ITMC we help organisations align operational activities with strategic business priorities that include balanced scorecards, metrics and a closed-loop performance measurement system.

By properly designing and implementing measurements, you can drive the right decisions and behaviours throughout diverse operations. And you can answer key questions like:

  1. How do we gain visibility to operations?
  2. Are we linking long-term strategic objectives to operational-level measures?
  3. Are we measuring the right things?
  4. How are performance measures interrelated?
  5. Are we improving our internal business processes?
  6. How does measurement become proactive?

The purpose of measurement is to measure, communicate, manage and improve business performance. We help you do that.
