Business Process Improvement - Redesign / Reengineering
Most business processes typically cross several functional departments and no one completely understands or manages the process from end-to-end.

The Morgan Group offers a proven approach that will help you document, analyze, improve, and communicate your business processes. By successfully managing the key business processes, you can greatly impact your ability to survive and grow.

  • Gain a clear understanding of how your business processes really work across the enterprise
  • Focus on process needs as opposed to individual and functional
  • Design new processes that are simple to implement, yet yield powerful results
  • Improve your business operation by taking a "process view"

BPI Program Development and Management
The demand for business process improvements keeps increasing every year with the promise of improved productivity. Despite the investments of capital and time spent planning and implementing these projects, far too often they fall short of delivering the expected results and financial benefits that were originally promised.

The Morgan Group offers a proven approach that will maximize your return on investment in improving business processes.

The Morgan Group's approach to BPI Program Development will help you to:

  • Prioritize projects based on business needs and goals
  • Rapidly respond to changing business conditions

  • Provide the road map for projects to be completed on time and within budget through an integrated approach
  • Involve business managers to ensure their ownership of projects

Project Planning and Management
Projects that are not planned well will not be executed well. You can dramatically improve the chance that a project will be successful and deliver the expected benefits when the project is planned well.

The Morgan Group can help you plan your project for a successful implementation. Dealing at a level of detail appropriate for the specific project, The Morgan Group helps the management team create the vision, clearly articulate the project goals, and develop the "call to action." We help you understand the characteristics of a successful project team, and help you select the team, develop the project plan, and initiate project kick-off.

  • Develop a clear understanding of scope, objectives and boundary conditions

Start-up Planning and Management
You can dramatically increase the chance for a successful start-up and on-going operation from a well designed and executed 'Start-up Plan'. Even projects that are planned and managed very well can fail during the very chaotic and critical time of implementation and start-up. The complexity of start-ups offers many challenges. Starting up a reengineered business process is totally different task than operating the process. The fundamental difference has to do with learning.

Project success depends on employing a team experienced in start-ups to guide the way. The Morgan Group offers a proven approach to plan and manage start-ups successfully.

The Morgan Group's approach to Start-up Planning Planning and Management will help you to:

  • Have a clear understanding of operating expectations
  • Develop Acceptance Criteriaİ during the early design phase
  • Identify start-up support requirements
  • Have for a more organized approach to start-ups
  • Provide for a win-win result for the project team and operation teams
