Assessing and analyzing your company’s entire business process, objectively identifying problems, the extent of the problems, existing issues and potential opportunities.
This phase helps the business leaders set clear goals, consolidate efforts so far, and review past successes and weaknesses. If major changes are to be made, then you will need to clearly outline an action plan with specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, and timely (SMART) goals.
Discuss the issues you are actively attempting to fix as well as the opportunities you hope to seize. Then, rank each of these criteria according to priority—they will be the benchmarks you use to evaluate potential structural alternatives and then measure your success.
This phase assesses the environment in which the business operates, does and in-depth diagnosis of the company’s standing with reference against its main competitors and/or industry, and explores relevant trends and developments. Using various tools such as SWOT, PEST or 5-forces, the business will have a clearer picture of their competitive and operating landscape.
Our Business analysis is used to identify and articulate the need for change in how organisations work, and to facilitate that change. We identify and define the solutions that will maximise the value delivered by an organisation to its stakeholders. Our Business analysts work across all levels of an organization and may be involved in everything from defining strategy, to creating the enterprise architecture, to taking a leadership role by defining the goals and requirements for programs and projects or supporting continuous improvement in its technology and processes.
We have the specialized knowledge to act as a guide and lead the business through unknown or unmapped territory, to get it to its desired destination. The value of this analysis is in realisation of benefits, avoidance of cost, identification of new opportunities, understanding of required capabilities and modeling the organization.
This business audit and reports are a documented evaluation of whether or not a company’s financial statements are materially correct along with the standards, evidence, and assumptions used to conduct the audit.
The results are reported in a written audit opinion, and the language in the opinion defines an audit. Financial statements : An auditor reports whether or not the financial statements are free of material misstatement. In this context, the word “material” means an error or missing information that is large enough to impact the reader’s opinion of the financial statements.
An audit is designed to identify financial statement errors. Regulatory requirements : The financial statements must be prepared based on a set of accounting rules. For-profit businesses must use Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), while governmental and not-for-profit firms use different sets of accounting rules. The audit opinion states that the financial statements were prepared in accordance with a specific set of rules. Internal controls: Finally, most audits require an auditor to assess the effectiveness of internal controls .
These controls are put in place so that the business can produce accurate financial statements, and prevent assets from theft. If there are weaknesses in any internal controls, the auditor must disclose the weaknesses. Stakeholders—including investors, creditors, and regulators—rely on the accuracy of financial statements. An audit is performed to provide a higher level of financial assurance to stakeholders.
The purpose of a business roadmap is to visualize exactly what is needed to transform a company's vision into reality. It is flexible and can be as detailed or abstract as you need it to be, depending on the phase of business maturity. Your business roadmap is action- focused.
This phase supports the company’s strategy in choosing a small but definite set of actions that will help the company navigate over the next few years and catapults the business into sustained growth. We will use tools such as the BCG Growth Matrix or the Product/Market Grid where necessary to help understand which ideas and actions will have the most impact, and help the business focus its efforts.
This last phase is critical as it ensures the ideas and initiatives are built into operation procedures with accompanying measurement tools to allow the business to keep track of it’s progress. Where necessary, assist the company in adopting other Business Excellence frameworks to ensure effective and efficient management processes are in place.
These phases operate in a cycle and the business leaders will be coached with the ability to regularly go through the different phases to ensure continued and sustained success.
