Operating Model & Org Redesign

The case that funds an operating-model or org redesign on cost, capacity and speed, grounded in numbers rather than a slide.
01What it is

An operating-model or org redesign changes how work flows and who owns it. The upside is large and the disruption real, so finance wants the cost, capacity and speed math, not a target-operating-model diagram. We build it.

02When a business case is required
Leadership wants a redesign but finance wants the case.
Duplicated effort, handoffs, or spans-and-layers cost more than anyone has totalled.
A merger, growth, or cost mandate forces the question.
A committee gate stands in the way.
A restructure needs justifying and sequencing.
03What we build into the case
A baseline: current cost of duplication, handoffs, and structural drag.
A benefit model in cost, capacity and speed, from the client's own operations.
Option analysis: do nothing, optimize, redesign, against the baseline.
Cost, transition risk, and sensitivity the committee uses.
A named executive owner.
04What you walk away with

The full roadmap. Phased implementation with gates, the tooling, and the roles to staff each phase, so the client sees exactly what they are getting into and how it gets done. That clarity is what turns a maybe into a yes.

The presentation

A board-ready deck

The case built to present, in your template and under your brand, that carries the number through the committee. We build it, and where it helps we are in the room with you.

The project document

A living project memory

The case written in full and structured to load into Microsoft Copilot. Mid-project, anyone can ask why a decision was made or what a number rests on and get the answer from the case itself. It stops being a document that dies at approval.

05The benefit
Funded, not deferred
The work gets approved this cycle instead of parked another quarter.
Priced fixed
You bid the outcome, not a day rate that races to the bottom.
Higher-value work
You sell the transformation, not the headcount.
CFO buy-in on record
A number the finance function signed off, to point to at every later gate.
The client has a map
They walk in knowing the path, which is what makes them commit.
Delivered as yours
Your brand, your relationship. We never appear as a vendor.
06The cost of not doing it
The redesign is a diagram no one costed and stalls.
It cuts the wrong roles and the capacity gap reappears.
Transition cost is underestimated.
With no baseline, the savings are unprovable.
The mandate passes and the structure ossifies.
