The
Goal
The PowerCurve workshop
quantifies and determines how to achieve your business goals. In an
on-site, team-oriented top-down planning and bottom-up assessment, we work
side-by-side with you to determine what needs to be done, how to do it,
using what information, and quantify the business benefit that can be
achieved. In the
workshop, we use our "PowerCurve" as a logical framework to
identify and quantify your goals, your key performance indicators, the
processes that drive your performance, and information and data about
those processes. Once the critical data is identified, a bottom-up
evaluation is conducted to determine the ability to model, predict and
optimize your key performance indicators, driving you directly to your
goals. Your business benefits are quickly identified, including the
total opportunity and the amount achievable.
The Workshop
Process
-
Establish Your
Business Goals. We list, rank and discuss the business
opportunities available. We identify the top opportunity and
quantify the total business benefit possible, assuming a perfect
solution. We quantify the tangible and identify the intangible
benefits to your organization.
-
Identify Key
Performance Indicators We identify how you
specifically measure performance in the selected opportunity.
Performance levels on these Key Performance Indicators (KPI's) are
used as a statement of the goal.
-
Identify Key
Processes and Data. We drill down into your business
processes to identify what factors drive your performance. We
identify which of those factors are within your control. We
determine the location of data for those factors and gather the data
for analysis.
-
Analyze Your
Performance Using our tools, we convert and clean your data,
build predictive models, quantify prediction accuracy and develop and
evaluate optimization schemes. From this, we can gauge how well
we can improve your performance.
-
Quantify Achievable
Business Benefit. Based on the analysis, together we
quantify and document how much of the total possible business
opportunity can be achieved using our solutions.
-
Determine Solution
In the above process, we know where your key data is located, what key
components of our suite of technologies, tools and applications are
required to achieve your goals. We link this information into a
structured solution.
-
Issue Workshop
Documentation and Proposal We document our results for you
and issue you a workshop findings report, including all of the results
created in the above steps. We also issue you a proposal based
on the solution identified. With this in hand, you have a clear
cut cost/benefits analysis and a proposed solution for taking to
management for approval. This information is so potent, 100% of
our customers have so far achieved funding by their management at this
stage.
