Does this sound familiar?
Translating strategy into action proves difficult
Your business could be more efficient and digitally oriented
Adapting to legal & regulatory compliance or new realities takes a long time
A methodology to make your
business strategy actionable
According to recent research, 64% of organisations say they need to build new digital businesses to stay competitive. 21% plan to implement digital technologies into their current business model. But only 11% express confidence in the sustainability of their current business models in the near future.
To assist companies in making their strategy more actionable, selecting the appropriate priorities and striking a balance between short- and long-term goals, we employ a clear methodology.
Setting direction
Elaborate the change
Compiling the strategic plan
Setting direction
We begin by exploring your organisation’s ecosystem, business models & and strategy to ensure that all subsequent steps in the exercise are connected with the business strategy and activities of your organisation. This includes defining goals & ambitions as well as identifying opportunities & challenges considering market trends & insights.
Elaborate the change
In this phase we evaluate and elaborate the change for your organisation from a business and IT perspective. Subsequently, we design your target future state in line with business strategy and considering impact on processes, organisation, people and technology. We also assess which capabilites need to be enhanced in order to succesfully execute the change. This includes the required governance & change management setup.
Compiling the strategic plan
Finally all needed change is compiled into a strategic plan. This is an actionable plan, that not only defines the initiatives to deliver the change but also provides insights into the business value, costs and risks involved. As an end-to-end partner, we are also more than happy to assist with the execution of this strategic plan.
