Better Business Analysis can help you address the long-term needs of your business, helping you create high-performing, efficient and resilient operations, and establishing the capability to tackle future changes.
Maximise efficiency
Identify and eliminate operational waste and apply technology to improve efficiency.
Eliminating waste from business operations is essential; in addition to generating additional costs and delays, inefficient and dysfunctional processes are bad for your people and your customers.
Better Business Analysis can review your business operations to identify waste: activities that add little value, problems creating defects and re-work, or having the wrong people performing the wrong tasks. Having revealed the opportunities for improvement, I can help you shape a plan of action to tackle these, and identify and evaluate solution options. These could include redesigning processes, changing roles and responsibilities, or adopting new technology to automate or facilitate tasks.
Where investment is needed to secure solutions, Better Business Analysis can help you formulate a business case for change, calculating costs, benefits, and return on investment.
Build your future change capability
Enhance your organisation’s ability to meet its strategic goals through effective business change practices.
Identifying the right changes to pursue, and making these changes happen, requires a set of skills and capabilities that many organisations (particularly smaller ones) may not possess. Effective business change may require strategic analysis, investment appraisal, process analysis, technology evaluation, project or programme management, change management, training, and quality assurance.
Better Business Analysis can help businesses looking to develop their own in-house change capabilities, whether that’s the creation of a new business function and change pipeline processes, designing and filling new roles, or simply equipping existing personnel with new skills.
I can also provide training in business analysis and change techniques and methods, such as process modelling, stakeholder facilitation, or requirements definition.
Improve business continuity and resilience
Establish the real needs and priorities; identify assumptions; spot gaps in coverage.
Business resilience is essential to the long-term survival of an organisation. This means understanding potential risks to business operations, (such as technology failure, or loss of key personnel) and establishing plans for ensuring operations can continue in the event of risk events occurring.
Better Business Analysis can help you understand your key risks, develop continuity and service recovery plans, and prioritise preparatory actions or changes.
