Our Services Related to
Misaligned Departmental Expectations
ElevatIQ offers several services to help with this challenge, such as business process re-engineering, business process improvement and documentation, change management, business case development, and post-merger integration.
Business Process Re-engineering
Our business process re-engineering services are especially helpful for companies struggling with misaligned expectations among teams. Our process of re-engineering services starts with an assessment, with a thorough analysis of current data and systems, followed by a site visit and interviews with stakeholders. Once the changes are identified and agreed upon, as-is and to-be models are built, along with the training and governance materials that teams can use.
Change and Project Management
This service helps in aligning expectations while kicking off a transformation initiative, whether you are making process or system changes. The change process has three major steps preparing for change, managing change, and reinforcing change. Each of these steps has a deliverable, such as a business case, implementation roadmap, training plan, engagement model, and change governance plan.
Business Process Improvement
This service helps in hitting a specific KPI related to misaligned team expectations, such as cross-functional workflows and metrics. Through the root cause analysis of current data and processes, an as-is and to-be plan is built. Using an MVP approach, an initial pilot is created to understand the impact of the change, followed by continuous monitoring and improvement.
Post Merger Integration (PMI)
This service helps companies when they might need help with pre-diagnosis of the technical risks, strategy for consolidation, or consolidating the system footprint post-merger. This helps companies reduce the system footprint and streamline processes, as well as remove data siloes and improve operational efficiency as they get ready for the next phase of their growth.
Business Process Documentation
This process helps reverse engineer the processes deeply buried in business systems, helping teams visualize and brainstorm the ideal state of the system from their perspective. The process is then followed by the to-be process models, comparing the changes and investment that would be required to build consensus among teams.
Business Case Development
This service helps executives in building a business case for digital transformation initiatives if they might not have as much experience with the structured process for computing the ROI and TCO analysis of the digital transformation efforts.
