Perfomance Management

Increase your Business Performance

Our “Performance management” range of services support you as you stabilise and optimise what you have achieved, both following successful change projects as well as with a view to existing structures and processes.  We show you ways to maximise the benefits from resources used, identify efficiency restraints and cost drivers, and possible quick-wins. 

We will send you concrete suggestions for action on how organisation and governance can be interlinked in a future-proof manner. We work together with you to develop the right model and a bespoke approach for your company, which also includes agile methods, the creation of common values for adaptive governance and the commitment of everyone involved. There is no “one size fits all” solution here. We also provide these services as an advisory service. 

Cost analysis
In the digital age, information technology has finally matured from a cost factor to a fully-fledged production factor. Traditional cost reduction programs fall short of the mark. Instead, companies must use of their IT budgets in such a way that they support the profitable growth of the company as much as possible. At the same time, they must optimise the associated costs in order to remain competitive. In our cost analysis, we combine cost optimisation and benefit maximisation.

Quick wins, consolidation and transformation
As a result, you receive a catalogue of concrete suggestions to use your IT budget more efficiently and to increase your company’s value. Depending on the implementation period, distinguishing between these potentials according to quick wins, consolidation and transformation has proven successful in our projects. Quick wins mainly result from the elimination of inefficiencies in demand management, projects and vendor management. You reduce your IT costs without compromising on benefits and quality. Consolidation prioritises cost optimisation and benefit maximisation. The consolidation of applications, transparent purchasing processes and the more efficient use of personnel are determining issues here. The transformation phase is determined by maximising the benefits of IT. A future-proof architecture and the optimisation of your business processes determine your agenda here.

Support with experience
The implementation of identified quick wins as well as consolidation and transformation measures often requires experience and specialist knowledge in various areas of information technology. We support this process as sparring partners for responsible employees, as an extension of the arm of your management and, in larger projects, also as consultants or project leaders. In this way, we work together to ensure that the desired success is also achieved with the identified potential optimisation.
Modern governance 
To secure everything that has been achieved through clear processes, the rules of the game and responsibilities and to create transparency for decision-making and control through monitoring: these are the traditional goals of IT governance. However, we believe that this focus alone is no longer sufficient to secure competitiveness in an era of digital change. Modern governance is adaptable, unbureaucratic, thinks about paths to the future and enables fast learning. Benefit from our wide-ranging experience in various industries and company situations here.

Cooperative approach 
At its core, effective, well-accepted governance is based on shared values and the overcoming of different, often conflicting interests. We help you with our cooperative approach, which incorporates all key stakeholders in a structured manner at an early stage.

Optimised governance 
Together, we ensure that business models, the corporate and leadership cultures as well as the strategic goals are reflected and supported to the necessary extent. Adaptability also means that governance enables the correct design of service provision involving the different departments, and requires flexible process and structural organisation as well as an openness to innovative solutions. Our goal is to work with you to develop and implement a governance system which is optimised for your challenges, and which fully applies the desired effect in practice (not only in theory).
