Value Realization: Five Components

Validate

Gather information.

In our value realization consulting process, we start with an initiative to understand your organization and processes. We perform a process maturity assessment, review your pain points, and take a close look at a large number of financial reports, as well as your organizational structure, headcount, current KPIs and process inventory. All this information gives us the insight we need to see opportunities for additional value and make a business case for change.

Analyze

Set priorities.

We analyze your organizational performance, find capability gaps, identify areas for improvement, and assess their value and cost – and then rank and recommend enhancements based on magnitude and your strategic criteria. With these priorities in-hand, we get to work.

Innovate

Detailed preparation.

Value realization initiatives, like all projects, require extensive planning to be successful. In this phase, we develop requirements, identify dependencies and sub-projects, build project teams, gather vendor costs for comparison, generate a budget, create project and transformation roadmaps, and determine value to the enterprise.

Activate

Following your priorities, implementation focuses first on the changes, enhancements and projects that will have the biggest and most immediate impact.
