Advisory

Efficiency and technology

We assess where changes to costs, processes or technology can improve performance. We consider implementation and operating costs as well as operational and security requirements.

Client situation

What is limiting the company’s performance?

Rising sales do not always translate into profitability. Spending on process delivery, cloud services or successive systems may grow faster than the benefit. The review identifies causes and changes that are economically justified.

Questions to resolve

  • Which costs follow from scale, and which follow from inefficiency?
  • Will automation free capacity, reduce spend or increase throughput?
  • How can technology change without weakening quality or security?

Scope of analysis

What the work covers

Costs and processes
Establishment of the cost base, expenditure drivers, bottlenecks and activities that do not add value to the process.
Technology and feasibility
Assessment of cloud usage, architecture and tools, automation opportunities and supplier dependencies.
Economics of improvement
Comparison of the cost of change and operation with benefits. Separation of released operating capacity from an actual reduction in expenditure.

Outcome of the work

An improvement programme with an economic case

A list of changes ordered by value, effort, risk and dependencies. For recommended actions, we define how the effect will be confirmed after implementation.
