Operating Model Innovation
Despite decades of reengineering, many companies still have problems with their business operations. They duplicate processes, perform hundreds of non-core tasks, and they spend vast sums of money on proprietary software that’s difficult to update.
Most businesses lack a simple view of the capabilities in the organization, an appreciation for which of those capabilities are most valued by customers, or a comprehension of which capabilities are the greatest leverage points for top and bottom line financial performance.
When you lose clarity of purpose in your operating model, costs increase, customer satisfaction is impacted, revenue growth slows, and profit margins erode.
It is time to rethink operations
In Accelare's Operating Model Innovation solution we work with our customers to create a high performance operating model which delivers a unique customer experience and excellence in operations. These operating models possess economics in their capabilities that competitors cannot easily replicate and they are able to continually adapt, anticipate and deliver innovations in customer experience and capabilities.
Creating a Fact Based Business
If you’d have only had the right information sooner, would you have made a different decision? What makes it worse is that the data you needed is somewhere in your company.
Business leaders want to manage with facts; facts which are delivered to the right people in time to take corrective actions, facts which allow the establishment of a new competitive advantage before the competition.
Accelare’s Fact Based Business solution identifies the greatest leverage points for financial and operational performance and delivers that information as a real-time performance scorecard.
Simplify IT
Despite being near the top of the CIOs “To Do” list for nearly a decade, evidence would support that improving business/IT alignment and IT effectiveness remains an issue in most organizations. According to Bain’s 2007 leadership survey, only 7% of respondents said that their IT organization was both effective and well aligned with their business.
Accelare’s Simplify IT solutions create a highly effective and highly aligned IT organization by simplifying the IT operating model, creating a platform for end-to-end IT performance management, identifying opportunities for alternative sourcing, and introducing a top down, business focused approach to multi-year IT investment planning.
Faster Application Innovation
Over 80% of IT budgets are being consumed just to keep the lights on. As a result the backlog for new innovation is piling up and business leaders are sourcing their own IT solutions rather than waiting for their number to be called, unconcerned with increasing the complexity of the IT architecture.
Accelare’s Radically Faster Application Innovation solution has reduced project costs for our customers up to 70%, delivering solutions in weeks which were previously projected to take months or more. We accomplish these results by combining an iterative and customer-focused Agile software development approach with composite application development (assembling applications versus building them) and leveraging, everywhere possible, the IT capabilities you’ve already invested in.
The result is innovation at an unparallel speed.
Capturing New Growth Platforms
After adding up the revenue forecasts of each of your existing businesses, do they fall short of your revenue target for the entire organization? If they do, you have an Enterprise Growth Gap. Based upon the research and services of Oyster International highlighted in The Harvard Business Review article, CREATING NEW GROWTH PLATFORMS, Accelare and Oyster International have partnered to offer to all organizations the power of New Growth Platforms which have resulted in breakthrough revenue growth at organizations like Apple, UPS, and Medtronic.
New Growth Platforms are opportunities which exist at the intersection of your existing capabilities, unmet customer needs, and enablers in the marketplace.
By combining Oyster International’s expertise in revenue growth and innovation, with Accelare’s industry leadership in enterprise capabilities modeling, we work with business leaders to quickly identify growth opportunities and build an actionable plan for implementing your New Growth Platform.
Sourcing
You aren't "world class" at everything, and quite frankly, you shouldn't be.
There are capabilities delivered by your organization which directly contribute to the unique customer experience you are known for. There are capabilities delivered by your organization which are the greatest leverage points for the financial performance of your organization. But there are also capabilities which are necessary and important, but not strategic. Delivering these often distracts attention to higher leverage work. These capabilities could be delivered by others with no loss of performance, and perhaps more cost-effectively.
Do you know which are which?
Accelare’s Sourcing solution helps customers create radically more efficient "Plug and Play" businesses by delivering capabilties which improve strategic focus and business agility.
