Portfolio Analysis and Enhancement

This area of expertise generally relates to improving a customer's "assets on the ground." The end result is development of a program to drive improvements in performance of operating assets and technology, product offerings (product portfolio), and/or business processes. Very often, the program identifies improvements based on industry and technology benchmarking of best practices, or closing the gaps identified in a strategic analysis phase.

Our portfolio service offering includes the assessing material performance deficiencies in a technology (such as clean energy), an operation and/or a product offering, or an entire business process. We next identify the best world-class technology or practices and then recommend a design or redesign to develop a case for action in areas such as:

• Production process design or redesign
• Identification and development of strategic partnerships with appropriate service companies
• Development of new technology testing and implementation programs
• Technology/vendor analysis and selection
• Change management to ensure the performance improvement objectives are met
• Sustained organizational restructuring, at both the corporate and plant levels

Our objective is to combine the people, processes, and technology elements of a company or operation to fundamentally transform the way it conducts its business, leading to significant and sustainable performance improvements.
