Operations Assessment

We have deep experience in assessing organizations and operations to assess business strength, identify specific areas for improvement, and identify revenue growth and cost saving opportunities. These qualitative and quantitative assessments support due diligence efforts or form the basis for improvement programs. Outputs are a common understanding of the as-is, gap analysis, business case for improvement, implementation road map, and momentum for change. Sample studies and outputs are available as we discuss what makes sense for your situation.

Our RapidEval^SM and S&OP Readiness Assessment will point you in the right direction. 

This is a quick assessment for those who don’t want the full assessment described above, but who want a quick-hit evaluation and perhaps an aligning/training/kick-off workshop to jump start efforts and clarify a path forward.

We tailor specifics with clients to include items such as:

• A best practice benchmarking evaluation of key supply chain processes and tools to measure future progress
• High level process flow review and gap identification
• High level organizational assessment
• Change readiness assessment
• IT capability assessment
• Identification of potential benefit areas
• Aligning/training workshop

This is an easy, economical way to start working together that produces tangible outputs!
